    Thanks!

    I have their complete shock/spring set at 2.75/1.0, looks level to me. Easily attained 3.9/4.3 caster with JBA.
    Drove about 100 miles today, no issues with TSSP or KDSS so far.

    Wildpeak tires will be next as soon as I made some good use out of the stock ones.

    BTW... discount tires online is running $100 off a set of Falkens (perhaps other brands too)... so tempting, but hard for me to justify replacing the 1K mile stocks.

    I replaced my stockers at 200 miles. Safety and looks won my vote

    Looks good, I just dropped mine off this morning for install and wildpeak 275/70-17 tires to go on. Only 450 miles on it so hope to maybe sell oem tires and suspension. Will update when I pick it up later today

    Just picked up. Damn this is like a whole new vehicle. Looks and rides great. Absolutely no rubbing with 275 not even close even when turning, prob could have fit 285. Sits perfect and has no drivers side lean anymore, I did use the spacers from dobinson suspension front and rear on drivers side. I love this thing even more now. I think I may put spidertrax 1.25 spacers behind wheels to push them out flush. I dont think there will be any problem with rubbing there is plenty of room in wheel well.

    Nice - mine is getting installed today (seems like a lot of us are either getting it installed or will be soon enough). So you did go with 275s? I guess I'll have to wait and see if my current 265s look too small or not. Hoping they look okay as they have less than 1k miles on them (i honestly did not plan on lifting this so soon until all these crazy COVID sales starting popping up).

    Since I bought my kit from Amazon, it did not come with the small lean correction spacers, but the stock lean hasn't bothered me so I don't anticipate it will bother me afterwards. Will post pics as well when I can.

    Ok here are measurements, now I measured from ground to top of fender so the after measurements will include slightly higher tires. Before front drivers side was 34.5 now its 37.8 rear drivers side was 36.9 now 38.5. Front passenger side was 35.0 now 38.0 rear passenger side was 37.4 now its 38.5. So now rear is completely level left to right. Front drivers side is very slightly lower even with spacer. Hope this helps anyone that is looking at this kit.

    Just got mine done and now in to get the alignment taken care of. Initial feeling like others have mentioned mirror comments that it’s slightly stiffer and the nose dive has gone away. Loving the ride so far!

    I guess I will post mine here are well. I installed the kit last weekend. This 4R is my wife's daily and hated driving it because lean during turns and the nose dive. After the install the driving experience is much better. Still haven't had it aligned but now it has a coupe hundred miles on it so I can schedule it. Hopefully they can get it in spec without adjustable UCAs. Waiting on Discount tires to have sale or rebate for BFGs or Falkens. I thinking I'll go with 285s.

    Nice level numbers.
    Not sure if it’s the tilt of my driveway... all but driver rear (38-1/8”) is nearly an inch higher than the 3..(37-1/8 to 37-1/2”). No spacers installed.

    Nice! Be sure to check out pricing for the Falken tires at Walmart.com. I took in a printout of the WM web page with the Falken tires I wanted, and Discount Tire matched it with no questions asked.

    Looks good, yea I went with 275. Yours looks good thou I wouldn't swap them out until they need to be. I'm with you on the covid sales, I have bought alot more stuff for this truck than I expected so far but I guess I'll take advantage of it. At least something good came out of all this covid mess.

    Finished my install today. Didn’t get measurements but a comparison shot works for me. Alignment will be done tomorrow, but the test drive was great

    Put the old wheels and tires from my Silverado on the Runner. 17x9 American Outlaws with 285/70/17 BFG KO2s. Plenty of room to fit both. Now I just need some new rubber.

    Interesting, the rims have the same bore size and everything is a direct fit?

    same bolt pattern, chevys bore is smaller than yotas so youll see more yota wheels make their way to chevys than vice versa

    The wheels are not factories. They came from Discount tire. They had a plastic insert in the bore to take it down from 106mm to whatever Chevy is. I just popped them out and the wheels went right on.

    A lot firmer of a ride, hit a few bumps and all of the body roll is gone. Thinking the combination of suspension and replacing the sway bar bushings with Prothane grease-able (front and rear) was a good choice.

    Wow, the lift coupled with the 285's totally changed this SUV. I used to hate driving it. Its transformed now into a real truck now. I guess I will be recommending this easy to install Eibach lift to everyone!

    Maybe I’m one of the lucky ones, but I’ve noticed a mixed bag of reviews with the ability to get the 4Runner back into spec for alignment after install with the stock control arms? Thankfully, my shop was able to get everything in spec without issue as I wanted to avoid that costly fix.

    the only issue I have currently is the front end drivers side has a slight squeak going over bumps. It can only be heard with the window down so it’s not that bad, just one of those “you know it’s there” and wish weren’t type deals haha.
