Those running LC 7 wraps in the rear, what coils are you running up front?

I am planning to do LC 7 wraps and LC shocks in the rear. Just want to confirm if Tundra coils and Tundra 5100s are a good match for the front, height and stiffness wise.

I don't want a ton of lift (2-3" max) and I do want it to ride like a Cadillac.

Thanks,
Justin

What would you say your overall lift is front and rear? How do you like the ride? Any need for panhard mod or extended brake lines in the rear? Thanks!
 
I have Wheeler's Offroad extended rear brake line. As far a the panhard bar, I do need to add a drop bracket my rear axle shifted after the lift. It still drives fine until you hit wash boards or consistent bumps in the road. It walks a little.
 
King 2.5 Extended Travel Coilovers and SPC LR UCAs and SS drop diff. Out back I am running Sonoran Steel 1.2 rear only lift with the Tokico shocks. I am very happy with my suspension and glad I went this route.

If going for adjustable coils and shocks, take onto account what weight you will be working with. If you plan to add a winch, bumper, or armor, just take that into account.

I'm running 881's, ome sport comforts, 1" lift spacer. Rides a little stiff.

I will be going to Icons when the money allows it.

I have the Bilstein 5100's that were re-valved and re-fitted for the 4Runner with the '04 Tundra TRD front coils set to the lowest perch. I love them, and they perform flawlessly on and off road.

Have some pictures and what perch you have the front coils set at?

THIS was taken right before installation. I don't have any other photos that really show the perch. You have three different perches, and this seems to be the best one for ride quality and not tearing up axles.

LOL, what it looks like on the right as a whole might give people a better perspective of what to expect. I took a look at your photo album. But for others, it might be helpful to know, let's say 5100 adjustable, 2nd perch, pick shown with 285s/ or whatever size tire, any additional weight or mostly stock, and how well you clear tires vs. wheel well.

Nice looking 4runner man. I was very close to running the same exact lift. Only reason I ended up with Kings is because I caught a good deal.

Ah! I see what you mean, now. Would you like me to post a picture in this thread of what it looks like under normal daily driving conditions? If so, not a problem. But yes, I do have 285's, and moderate to light loads during everyday driving.

Sounds good. Pictures always make it better.

This is my Sonoran Steel 1.2 Setup with a 1" Body lift, and 285/75/16's. I am running 1.25" Spidertrax Wheel Spacers on all fours, but up front I do experience minimal rubbing. These photos are also under normal driving conditions, not under load. I haven't done any trimming, however I have removed the lower portion of the front fender flare. I hope these are good photos for reference.

Did you revalve the front 5100's or who did this service for you? Where did you get your LC 7 wraps?

thanks
