Identify This Lift?

I have a new-to-me 2002 with what looks like a 2-3 inch lift. Some friends in my local club like the stance so much they want to replicate it, but it was installed a couple owners ago.

Bilstein shocks all around, but I'm not sure how to ID the coils or the UCAs. Or even how to determine if the UCAs are aftermarket.

Does this look familiar to anyone?

are there any paint codes on the front coils?

the rears are definitely some FJ80 coils judging by the paint marks on those.

I'd take a guess that the fronts are 99 talls based on the stance. the ARB bumper isn't that heavy.
 
Thanks!

I couldn't find any paint codes on the drivers side, but I did see them on the pass side front coil.

I happen to have 2 pairs of the 99 talls here. One in the truck and one on the deck. They are indeed yellow/blue on the passenger side, but mine both have yellow on top, blue on the bottom. Your photo makes it look like the blue is on top. Not sure if the order of paint splotches makes any difference. Seems odd that yours would be different.
 
That is an older version of the Sonoran Steel 1.2 kit. The rear coils are double purple/grey/white LC 7.5 wrap coils with bilstien 5100s. The bump stops and drop brackets in post 1, picture 1 are found in that kit. You can also see the sway bar lift brackets and adjustable panhard bar in post 1, picture 3. In post 3, picture 2 you can see the polyurethane coil isolator at the top of the coil spring, note that it does not compress like the OEM rubber.

Also, the front coils are the yellow/blue Tundra coils on 5100s. My truck had the exact same stance with the SS 1.2 kit once I installed my ARB bumper. The front shocks are likely on the second of five perches.

Have a look at the kit on the SS website. My guess is you'll find most of these components on the vehicle if you look around.
