What about this?
FJ Cruiser/4Runner Ultimate 3" lift package
You can add UCA's and still be under $2K and have a nice set up
What did you do with your 4runner today?

Mine does and I'm still with a 45* side exit lol.
YAY exhaust leaks! Having a crushed rear corner lets them all in through my tailgate seal and taillight

From what you are describing as your intentions either one of these will be more than adequate. As will multiple shock/spring combos that are very popular on this forum. Save yourself an assload of cash and pursue one of the above mentioned options. By the way, a completely stock 4Runner can get you to about 95% of anywhere you need to go ( if you don't mind a decorated front bumper :madgrin

I you want bing factor I'd just do a toytec package and some ucas if you don't mind spending the money. I'm in the process of mix n' matching because I want a steel bumper. I think the bing factor of an icon kit is cool, but IMO 1) it's not 4k worth and 2) nobody will really know it's there and I think that much money could be used in other areas of the car. But I'm not trying to influence you. At the end of the day it's your car and your money!

Thank god for New England!!!
Thanks man!
After having the leak fixed, the power increase is noticeable. The sound is much better.
I'll be sure to report back with power and mileage.

Did this today
Surprisingly easy job, don't know why I put it off so long. Drives so much better and I haven't had an alignment yet. Took about 2.5 hours and only because when I was buttoning up the passengers side I had the brake line between the UCA and tower so had to tear it all down again lol. Thought I was gonna need a ball joint separator but I just took a 3lb sledge to the spindle and it popped right out!

I mean... The 4Runner is a Japanese imported vehicle...
But I prefer the deep growl to a raspy fart can sound.
I like the sound of my N54 (I6 twin turbo) but I don't think it will ever match the displacement & sound of a large-displacement V8. Speaking of which, I'm thinking Flowmaster 50 series or Magnaflow Cat-back.

Got my wheels and tires mounted and installed.
I now have a slight rub at the back of the fender well on the right side.. not sure if I'll go up a notch on the 5100's or hope the alignment fixes it.
Looks awesome man. Post some different angles or a bigger picture. Kind of hard to see. I think I might eventually splurge and pick up a black set off ebay.
