    Thanks for the add. Have enjoyed researching the forum since buying this TRD Pro July 2019.

    I know there's a lot of discussion on lifts for our 4runners. I added some weight to the front with a slimline bumper, smitty bilt winch and rigid lights. Probably 140 #s added on the front. This also dropped the standard rake in the front from 1/2" to about 1". Not doing anything crazy off road, so thought I'd do spacer to level. May add something for rear, as well. Full lift maybe later after using these fox shocks that I already paid for! I'd appreciate recommendations...I guess there's less options with the Fox shocks. Thanks again for the add, look forward to learning from you all.

    If you add spacers it’s going to affect your ride quality however it will give you your height back. You may be able to swap the springs in the front to a stiffer sprint and give you that 1/2” back without sacrificing ride quality.

    Nice, thanks! I would definitely lean towards the coil-overs, based on your and antmans feedback. I'm not too tight on budget that $500-$1000 would be an issue...thinking the spacers would be most of that anyway as I do not have a garage for this type of work and it's honestly more than I could handle. I just don't want to be throwing it out the window replacing the stock fox. I've already been putting money into it...but I am happy with what I've done so far.

    I forgot to mention...with the stock Nitto's I am actually rubbing right now on turns, as well...so need to do something. Whatever I do I would like to consider doing 285's on the next set of tires. The nittos have been feathering and have gotten noisy....at 22k miles. Thanks for the great input. Appreciate it!
