Toytec 3" Leveling Kit review.

[AJD_Limited]

Do you have to aim your headlights down a little bit - or is it too small of a change? :car:

Looks real good!

Does your 4R lean to the passenger side?

I didn't have to adjust the headlights at all, the headlight LED's I have are super bright. If anything, they're covering more area now that they're a bit higher off the ground. I also have the 2 in 1 LED fog lights.

I'm not sure what you mean... At a stand still there is no sag, measurements show the truck perfectly level. While driving at any speeds, I have not experienced and tilt to either side, the ride stayed as comfortable as it was prior to lift.

My biggest concern before install was getting whipped around by the high winds here in Charleston on the bridges. I have been caught in them and did not have to have both hands on the wheel or riding with the pucker * effect lol

You'll want to go out and re-aim them at some point for sure. I can appreciate the extra coverage but it's more for oncoming traffic. Also, I'd recommend ditching the LEDs if you are using them in the low beams.

Ahh, I smell what you're stepping in, I appreciate the heads up. No one has flashed me, yet... but I'm sure it's still pretty bright for other drivers. As far as the LED's, I thank you for your feedback. A few others had the same thing to say, but as of right now I'm gonna stick to my purchase with these LED's. I don't want anything to do with HID's, I've had too many previous bad experiences with them.

All good, gotta work through some things on your own sometimes. :bigok: FWIW I had terrible experiences with HID in the past too, but the XenonDepot kit in the refreshed 5th gen was a relative breeze.

Did you lift the rear at all ? if so what did you use ?

Truck looks great !!

Which dealership in charleston did the work? I've been looking for someone to install my spacer lift on my pro, wonder if they would give me the same deal. Care to pm me your contact at dealer? Thanks!

 

[nglayton]

I think...

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Do you have a link to the exact kit you bought? or maybe a part number?

Thanks, That looks awesome!

Very nice! I think I'm going to go with this leveling kit too. Is this the kit you got?

BEST SELLER! 3" FJ Lift Kit w/spacers and rear ToyTec coils

Your 4Runner looks great.

OK so it has been a year. Are you still happy with it? Still running just Toytec spacers, Spidertrax spacers and 285s? No other suspension mods?

Thank you.

 

[rkwfxd]

OK, in case anyone else is curious like I was, LowCountry responded to my PM. He doesn't use this site much anymore but said after a full year he is still super happy with his set up and doesn't plan to make changes anytime soon.

New here. I just had the toytec leveling kit installed on my 4r limited and happy about how it rides. Just curious, I know this is an old thread, but I’m planning to install the spidertrax as well. What did you think about it? Have you tried wheeling with it? Just curious about it and how it performs when you do some wheeljng with it. I guess some safety concerns. Thanks!!!

Haven't really seen many people using this kit. I wanted to fit a 33" tire but can't afford the complete Billstein lift kit at this very moment, but that I will eventually buy. So I decided to go with the 3" leveling kit from Toytec. I was hesitant because leveling kits usually make the ride a bit less smooth and harsh in my opinion, but this actually made my truck ride BETTER! It could just feel better because I'm sitting higher and the center of gravity counterbalanced with the 1'25" spider-trax spacers, but I'm blown away. I can't wait to put new rubbers on (285/70/17) KO2's in a couple of weeks. If any of you are looking to go with this kit whether temporary or permanently, I HIGHLY recommend it! Cheers!

Really glad to hear your write-up. Have been researching ToyTec leveling kits.

Were you able to keep your original shocks and coils? Two of the kits I found on the ToyTec site included rear coils and the other front & rear coils.
