    Any recommendations for a 3 inch lift? I drive my 2016 4Runner on a daily and love going off-roading / camping. I go to off road parks when I can. Don’t know a whole bunch about lift kits. I’m looking for something in the middle of basic and good lift kits. Any opinions will be appreciated. Thanks yall

    I have bilstein 5100’s paired with headstrong coils in the front for 3” of lift. In the rear I have fox 2.0’s with icon coils for 2” of lift. For me it does great on and off road. I haven’t done extreme trails, all have been decently mild but I’m happy wit the performance as it fits my lifestyle perfectly.

    That’s like the perfect look I want! But my truck is lower in the front than tha back. That’s where I’m confused

    you could probably do 6112 and 5160 in the rear. With icon 2” coils in the rear. With that budget.

    Yeah factory rake, it sits one inch lower in the front for when you load stuff up it doesn’t look goofy being higher in the front. The coils I have now are rated for 300lbs of continuous load I believe, so they’ve been great. I’ve experienced no sagging. With a full vehicle and gear in the back. The entire kit, INCLUDING upper control arms (SPC), it ran me about hot $1600. So that’s right in your budget, and you’ll have everything you need to make it drive right.
