    I just want to say I'm not a professional installer or have any affiliation with Ironman 4x4.

    I did the install myself in the garage with a buddy lending a hand when needed. I installed the NitroGas Stage 4 on my 2013 4Runner with 114k. That package includes: NitroGas front coil overs and rear shocks, UCA's, adjustable Panhard bar, adjustable lower trailing arms, and adjustable rear sway bar end links. I did buy their front sway bar relocation brackets and some new extended length rear brake lines. The stock suspension was worn out and I figured it was time for an upgrade. The install went pretty easily with the fronts. It definitely helps to have a friend with the removal of the UCA bolts as well as reinstalling them. The rear is a little tough to get enough room to put the new coils in but with a helping hand it is achievable. The ride is night and day difference from the old stock suspension. Everything is better and the ride is not harsh at all. I was able to get it aligned without any issues and the overall build quality of the parts is quite good. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and now I need bigger tires, lol.

    What set up, springs did you use? Any negative rake (front higher than rear)?

    To make fitting the rear coil springs easier, put the factory bottle jack between the axle and the frame. That's how I made it easier on myself.
