    Can you put a 2” spacer to level a TRD PRO model?

    Yes, not advisable but yes. You’ll be sitting nose high with a 2” spacer.

    Thanks for your quick reply. Would a 1” spacer be better or do you not recommend to not leveling it at all?

    A 1” spacer will be much better suited, and will retain the quality ride much better. You shouldn’t really tel a difference in ride quality after the 1” spacer install, and it’ll level it out perfectly.

    4 Wheel auto told me my TRD PRO model cannot put a spacer due to the type of suspension it has. Do you know why they would tell me that?

    Thanks for giving me hope that I still have an option to level it out with a 1” spacer. Any recommendations on the brand I should get? Sorry for all the questions.

    Yeah don’t even bother giving them your business, that makes absolutely no sense. If you’re somewhat mechanically inclined it’s a straightforward install. If not it’ll run you about $100 to get it installed at a reputable shop.

    Will the “TOYTEC” 1” spacer fit? Off Road Alliance said Toytec is the only spacer that will fit on my 2016 4Runner TRD PRO bilstein suspension? I’m not sure what my front suspension are? Does anyone know what I have? Sorry for the all dumb questions. Lol

    Any 1” spacer that is made for a 5th gen 4runner (2010-2021) will fit yours. All a spacer is, is a circular hunk of metal that gets slapped on top of your suspension to raise the vehicles height. You have upgraded Bilstein TRD tuned shocks. Your 4Runner is the same as every other 5th gen but has some extra goodies/upgraded components.

    Sure why not, I did. 2/1.5” Cornfed works fine.

    Toytec makes a 2" kit that replaces your front coilover top hats and lower spring perches. Lift in the back is achieved with a new coil spring.

    I've been running mine for four years and I'm pretty happy with it.
