Hey guys I am a high mileage driver on the 16 4runner
how long will I expect to get for mileage on my suspension before I need to upgrade or replace shocks and struts?

I'd say it depends on where you live (road conditions/weather) and how you drive. If you're out in the woods or on trails often I'm quite sure it will reduce shock life.

Welcome!

I think stock Toyota suspension starts to suck around 30,000 miles and only gets worse from there but that is probably just me. But every Toyota I have ever owned has been like that. I feel it's an area they cut corners on.
