I didn’t know about the lower perches, thought the drivers side is higher than the other from the factory for drivers side lean. Or are they both on the higher perch?

Correct. The Pro uses the same rear springs as all other 4runners.

You are correct on the clips are set higher on the driver side to correct the lean but the lower spring seat itself is different on a Pro and must be reused. It might it have a small spacer on them. I'll be putting mine on Monday so I'll know for sure then.

Perfect, looking forward to hearing how it went... build pics maybe? What did you decide to do with the rears? I finished painting my coils red and they look pretty good for rattle cans:

Looks good. Yes I'll take a bunch of pics. I'm using a set of Dobinsons 599 on the rear. Supposed to be about 1.25" lift. I want it pretty level just a bit higher in rear.

I’ll have to check those out. That’s my plan as well.

I looked those up too but don’t like that it doesn’t give you the shipping cost until after you buy the coils, would be nice to know what that’ll run before hitting buy.

Yes it will. I'll be going with those on mine. I have spacers so I'll have to do the BMC.

Might require some minor trimming but shouldn't be a problem.

No. The Fox suspension uses a different coil spring design. Sorry but I don't know if anyone is making just a easy spring swap for those yet. I know Eibach was looking into it though.

Bah, looks like Icons coming soon , hate to rip this nice setup out
If you want to improve the suspension why waste money on icons? Just go with Kings!! Check out the thread, mods you regretted doing and see how many icons listed there.

Well that's hard to say because I really don't know what you want out of your rig. You went from spending $200 on a set of coils to thousands on a stage 7 suspension? That's a big difference. Do you really need everything that come in a stage 7 package? What are you going to gain with billet arms and links? If it's for the bling factor then okay, if not then what for? Do you want the ride and performance of a digressive or progressive shocks.
I don't consider a full King coilover and rear package along with your choice of rear spring and ucas piecing something together, but more along the lines of building a custom package the completely fits your needs. Just my thoughts.
