    I purchased this in 2020 and lifted it just yesterday - April 6 2023 after saving up for the lift since the day I purchased it. My goal is to keep my 4Runner for as long as I can- hopefully 20 years!

    Details on the lift on my 2018 SR5:

    Got the work done at Duggy's Garage in Houston.

    2" Lift Kit:
    -Bilstein B8 5100 (ride height adjustable) shock absorber
    -Bilstein 5100 series shock absorber
    -SPC upper control arms
    -Toytec RCC2.0-P - Toytec Superflex Rear Coils
    -Toytec 521600-KIT- Toytec 3" lift front coil spring kit pair

    Tires
    -Falken Wildpeak 275/70/17 load range c
    -Method 305 wheels

    Super pleased with the end result. It looks so much more aggressive but also feels significantly better. My SR5 handles so much better already with next to no nose dive. The overall drive and comfort is significantly improved as well. It feels so much closer to the way my buddy's stock TRD feels to a noob like me. Can't wait to take it off the grid.
