Bilstein 6112/5160 Question

After waiting 4 months, my Bilstein 6112/5160 came in and I'm thinking of going with 2.5" in the front and 1.5" in the rear.

I would like to ask if anyone on here has some pictures of their 4Runner with this set up to see how level it is and pros and cons to this set up.

Thanks in advance.

 

It comes down to your preferences. At 2.5” you might need upper control arms, you might not.

 

I want to see how level 2.5" front with 1.5" in the rear with this lift looks like, thats why I asked.

 

You asked for pro and con of lift height..lol.
You’ll be pretty level. Rear is about 1” higher from factory. Mine is lifted 3/2 and it’s pretty much spot on level.

 

While I'm not running Bilsteins on my 4Runner, I do have mine lifted 2.5 in the front and 1-1.5 in the rear (I've heard both figures for the rear Eibach coils). It sits pretty level, and I did put aftermarket UCAs in mine. I had them installed along with the lift, so, I can't really compare if I truly needed them or if I'd have been fine on the stock ones.

I've got a couple of photos:

 

2.5"/1.5" is the perfect lift for these, IMO. I might be biased, though.

And with some dirt after a day of shenanigans:

 

Did you need to add aftermarket UCA's?
I have a local shop telling me I need them...

 

I did replace UCA's, but I'm not certain that I needed to. Usually, somewhere between 2.5 - 3" is when they become necessary.
