Rear is higher.

Well?

Just picked up a 2001 SR5 and a can't leave anything the way I bought it... So is anyone running this set up yet? Pics after the install? Does it remove the stock bucking over bumps feel and the side to side sway? How long is normal install time? If I get the "with winch option" without the winch installed how will this affect the ride? (winch and bumper is on the list to install but down the list)

TIA

Also running the stock parts without the Sonoran Steel corrective parts, you run the risk of damaging parts and the results will not be the same. Without the full kit you are on your own.

The kits need to be installed complete for the appropriate vehicle with the matching hardware or not at all.

So then I can't buy a "without winch" set up and upgrade a few parts when I add a winch and bumper?

Yes, you can buy the without a winch, kit and then buy the spacer and longer studs when you get a winch, but it is not wise to run the winch setup without a winch physically installed. You will get too much lift.

No problem buying the extra parts down the road, as long as you bought the original kit from us.

We don't want to just sell individual Toyota parts or individual parts to the general public, but if you are a lift kit customer and need additional items, that is not a problem.

Toyota up'ed the prices on the TRD front shocks, my prices have went up.

If Toyota raises, I have to raise as I don't make a cent on the factory parts, only the custom stuff.

I added another option that uses stock 1999 4Runner coils and another option for a very mild lift.

Steve-

Do you have any of these coils, new or used in "stock"? I really want to get the measurements off of one of these to see how different they are compared to what is under the newest 4runners and Tacos. If I can find the dimensions of the spring I will pull my front end apart and check the dimensions on mine. I loved the Tundra Springs on my 4runner and if I could somehow get 2" out of them on this new truck I would do it and call it a day, especially now that the OME shocks are out.

I get the coils brand new a day before the kits ship. I don't stock the Toyota parts, I get it all just in time from my local dealer.

Next time you have a set in your hands would you mind taking the measurements?

I'll try, but when folks drop $1000 they want the thing shipped ASAP.
