    Sound like a progressive rate spring. I have been running an Icon progressive rate spring in my FJ for years (maybe the same one) and really love it. I have occasionally pulled a trailer way beyond factory rating and she handled it quite nicely. I bet you'll be happy with them!

    Not sure if the 52700 springs are progressive, I know the ICON Overland 3” 52800 springs are progressive. I do like the ride, the 4runner feels more planted and firm in a good way.

    This is the same on my wife's Highlander. I'm not sure, but with the factory remote start, it'll shut off when you open the door.

    What kit did you use?
    When I took my 22 apart I found the connectors were different rather than pulling out two separate connectors w/ 2 wires each, it was a flat one with 4 wires, won't fit through the hole in the mirror arm. Wish I had taken a picture when apart.

    Is this a legitimate/vetted company and product? What strikes me as odd is when I read the "about" section, it says it's a technology company based in Canada, however when I looked into the company registration, the address is based in China (601, Zhengtailai Business Building Cross ofBao'an Av.&Xixiang Av.XixiangSt. Bao'an Dist., Shenzhen CHINA 518000). Call me skeptical, but if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

    Additionally, when looking at the attorney on record (Law Office of Tony Hom), the address comes back to a single family home in BROOKLYN, NY (clearly not China OR Canada). Not to mention the grammar on the site is not indicative of anyone I've ever talked to in Canada, or Canada based companies, publications, etc.

    I could be completely wrong and will stand corrected if so, but something seems off at first glance.

    I'm thinking the Pro might have some different wiring in the mirror, do they have all the same features? BSM, heated mirrors, puddle light and turn signal?

    I do not know what the PRO model include. I have a 2022 SR5 Premium with BSM, heated mirrors, puddle lights, and turn signal.

    So I have an update on the digital dash. Everything works, however the milage didn't transfer over properly. I recommend annotating your mileage before and after the install. I reached out to them for a fix and waiting to hear back. I believe this is an easy fix.

    Other than that one issue it's pretty sweet. You can even change the color of the needle.

    That looks very cool?

    The problem you have is not showing mpg? its just showing liters per 100kms?


    Does it not have a fuel level meter? I only see the engine temp. How about turn signals, low beam, high beam, fog light indicators?

    Will it show sequential shift points (S4/S3,....)?

    Will it show terrain management, crawl settings, diff lock, traction disable, a-trac, etc..?

    Lot of questions I have... Would be nice to make a YouTube video showing all those features.

    Yes, I agree but something Carobotor should've done. OP, was it difficult to install?

    How's the brightness during the day and contrast at night? Does the display lag at all?

    So after playing with the settings they do have sw kinks to workout. My miles actually did cross over but shows correctly in "km" and not "mi". The company will most likely fix these link after they get feedback.

    As for your other questions it does show when you go into 2h/4h/4L. When I bought the unit I had to buy the one that wasn't compatible with the locker so I know it shows that data.

    Here are some pictures showing you some of the functions.

    On a side note, when the seat beat in not plugged in the chime is not as annoying and it's not constant.

    In the top left and right corners you'll notice turn signal, headlights, brights, 4L along with atac.

    Installed a Cornfed 2" lift in front and 1.5" lift in the rear. Can't lie there was some cursing and attitude adjusting on the rear driver side spring. That was a b*tch getting in by myself. This will give me a little extra clearance unit I get a 2.5" king system put in and 285's on. The 275's don't look to bad.

    Installed ECGs clamshell bushing to eliminate needle bearing today. Didn't go terribly the only thing I'm worried about is the bushing was seated before I knew it and I definitely was whacking on it for a little while longer than I needed to be
