    Varies, depending where you go; 4 wheel shops might ask around $1200/1500. I paid $490 I a body shop front -shocks/coils & rear - shocks/springs, all included, alignment/tax etc. (without KDSS).

    2” lift - SPC UCA - 285s - RCI skids - C4 Gas Skid - C4 Sliders
    I have a 2019 pro lifted 2” all around using Eibachs and a 1/4” strut mount spacer in the front. In the rear I have Dobs c59-505 springs. I’m goin to be installing a C4 dual swing rear bumper. Trying to select new rear springs to keep my current ride height. Bumper weighs 235 on its own. Any advice? I don’t want 2-2.5” of lift once I get the bumper on and loaded.

    Also, can I use a 3” Long travel spring like Dobs 677s or 701s with the stock fox shocks? Anyone know the length of the fox shocks? Wondering how I can determine if it will over extend the shocks. Here are the Dobs spring options:

    C59-677V - Variable rate comfort option, 400+LB heavy rear load weight, 3" lift. 500/500mm open, 16mm wire, 157-230LB variable
    These are the next step up with another coil wind added to give extra load support. Recommended to have at least 300-400LBS of extra weight on the vehicle at all times so that these perform properly and don't over lift. Due to their long free height length (19.7"), you'll have to remove upper and lower control arms and panhard rod most likely to get them installed, and long travel shocks will be needed to get the most travel out of them.


    C59-701V - Variable rate, 600+ LB heavy rear load weight, 3" lift, long travel. 500/500mm open, 210-245LB variable.
    Designed for those with heavy full rear bumper, tire carrier, roof rack, RTT, drawers, and fridge. Rides very well with all that weight, as well as when loaded even further. This is pretty much the heaviest flexi coil we can make while still supporting all that weight and giving maximum flex/travel.

    2” lift Dobs option:

    Dobinsons C59-329 Gives this lift and suits these models:

    2.0″ – Toyota 4Runner 2003 to 2022 Heavy Load with 600-800LBS Constant Load

    Talk to crikeymike as he will lead you straight. But you will not get more travel with the OEM shocks. The shocks and bump stops determine travel. Longer shocks are needed for more travel. Shocks are designed to be the “stop” for down travel, so longer springs should not hurt the shocks.

    I can tell you though, it's not the coil spring that's long travel, it's the shock itself. You won't get any more travel unless you go to a longer shock.

    Personally, I would stick with a 2-in lift height. You can't really fit any bigger of a tire on with a 3-in lift, all it does is rob you of down travel and require you to replace the UCAs.

    Here's a great video with everything you'd want to know about Toyota front suspension. It's a three-part series, I'm going to link the first part for you. He specifically gets into long travel in I think the second part in the series, and does some demonstrations.
