Trd pro lift question

I'm wondering if the register guy wasn't confused and thought you were referring to an xreas equipped Limited?

I got the same answer from the 4WP in Dallas here. They basically do not work on the TRDPro line suspension and they do not support anything Toytec at all. I ended up using a local shop, they were nicer, knew more about Toyotas and were way cheaper. For all 4WPs is they have become too corporate and I’m not really a fan of them.

You can work on it, and support a local shop instead of the man.

2016 TRP Pro, 45k miles

Has anybody tried the Bilstein 5100 Adjustable height shocks to lift the front a little? 0-2.5" lift. I have them on my tundra and it has worked great. PN 24-196499

I was also thinking about getting the FJ TRD Pro front springs to add some height and handle a little extra weight. 600lb rating vs the 520lb rating on TRD Pro. I've read 1-2" of lift added. PN PTR13-35140-AA

By combining the two, I can get 1-2" of lift on the front from the spring, with the bilsteins on the lowest setting.. In the future, when I add a winch bumper, I can just adjust the Bilsteins to get the height back lost to the extra weight.

I'm also looking to get new tires soon. Plan on 285/70/R17, unless I can go a little bigger.

I should have my TRD FJ Pro springs available after I swap into my #650 King springs. #600s ride very nice on hwy and very capable offroad. I'M going #650 to prep for winch and C4 Low Pro center bumper they are designing for the preface.

Ha, you're preaching to the choir. I'm no 4WP fan boy.
 
Anyone happen to have a set of preload spacers for sale?

Anyone here running a mild lift of 1" front and 1" rear with stock sized tires? I'm getting TRD pro suspension put on my SR5 and was debating on 1" front and rear spacers for just a little more clearance with stock sized 265's (Falken Wildpeaks). Wanting to keep stock UCA's as well. I've been searching all night but can't quite find what I'm looking for. Seems like everyone went with a larger lift and is running 275's and 285's. Any pictures or advice would be appreciated!

I don't specifically remember seeing anyone running the exact setup you're mentioning, but with the stock height of the TRDP struts being 1" higher and your spacer you'll end up looking like the guys here that are running 5100s @ 1.75" front and a 1" cornfed spacer in the rear. There's a YT video of a guy doing that lift if you search 4Runner 5100 lift on YT.

That is exactly what I have for sale...:playball:
It is the TRD Pro Cornfed 2.25" front lift. The one I linked you to that I am selling.

Yeah i'm a big fan of Cornfed they make a great product but their kit is different than the ToyTec kit. They use a spacer between the top hat and coil rather than a replacement lower spring seat. Really not a big deal at the end of the day. I don't think they include longer studs for the top hat either or am I wrong on that? I haven't forgot you on this, just weighing all options at the moment.
 
Their .5" top hat spacer when bolted threads all the way to the top end of the nut, all the threads are secured. My mechanic buddy said it's fine and he didn't think it was necessary to buy extended bolts.

That is the direction I ended up going tbh. And why I don't have the spacers on anymore. I have the King 14" 650# springs. I removed the front sway bar, and cant tell a difference on the most twisted of roads. I want to sell my spacers, but my advice is to go with the Kings springs and don't look back.
 
I have the FJ Pro front shocks so they already have 14" springs. If I had the 4R Pro kit I would swap the 13" coil for the 14" coil and that would achieve my desired lift.
 
I know, it's a great option for people with the 4R Pro suspension. Had I know of this I would have looked for 4R Pro suspension but I bought my FJ Pro suspension brand new as a kit direct from Toyota for $640 to my door. Pretty hard to beat that IMO
 
I’m planning on installing TRD Pro suspension soon. Currently running a 3/2 lift with 285 tires. Decided to downsize. Do you guys think it’s worth lifting an inch just to stick with 265/70r17 tires? I have the 1” front and rear cornfed spacers. But part of me thinks it’ll look just fine at the stock height and not worth the extra hassle. I do go OffRoad a few times a year. Nothing too crazy as she is my daily driver. Why am I so torn over this?
