MPG Loss about 1.5MPG I was at about 16 and now about 14.5. I changed from FJ Cruiser to 4Runner this month so MPG has never been an concern, it's about the ride, the look and the off roading capabilities. You don't buy and MOD these for the MPG. They aren't Prius they are bad ass off road mud machines.
Post your LIFTED pix here!

Asking me? If so, it's an optical illusion, the front window is cracked open so it looks like there's a visor there. Sorry.

First all nice rigs!!! Second I'm in the process of adding a lift to my 2016 trail going with Icon (as of now) and have a few questions. My first question for you guys is, are the Icon aluminum upper link arms and rear trailing arms worth having. (I understand the weight reduction and added strength are the main factors offered by these products) Will they effect ride, handling, etc??? Thanks for any input and advice. FYI many more questions are coming as I start my build.

Sorry, I didn't quote the post I was looking at, like 100 pages back....I am planning on very similar set up as yours, not set on the tire choice yet and may use stock rims to start, I really want 285's but also don't wont to have to use spacers, I don't mind the stock rims but might have to get a set with a better offset for the larger tires....

Hey I have stage 2 parts waiting to go in and I will be running 285s on stock rims also. Any complaints with that decision? You think about running some spacers for some extra stance?
Please share your experience cause I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to know
EDIT: with the UCAs did you have to do a BCM or you just leave it be?
Did you have any rubbing issues while driving, wheeling, or at full lock? planning on getting the same set up within a week.

I'm assuming since you lifted this it was not a trd pro. Did you put the trd appearance bumpers and badges on ypurself? Looks sharp. I really want a white one that looks like this. In Colorado here also and negotiating with dealers. I can get a TEP with KDSS, trd bumpers and grill, wheels and tires for 42,501. then I would add a lift after. Not sure yet though

Thanks. You are correct. It's a TEP w/ KDDS and a bunch of mods done myself and various shops in the area.
The lift and the tires were my latest mods. If I were to do it all over again those would be the first. Love the ride quality and the obvious gains off road.
