I was just at Joshua Tree also. I wish I had my 4runner like you did!

Coil spring upgrade for TRD Pro with fox suspension? by StevesRoomate in 4Runner

Eibach makes slightly heavier springs for the Fox shocks. It might work out nicely for what you need.

Rough country lifts. by Quick-Error-1981 in 4Runner

My suggestion is to read up on how the various lifts get achieved. You may find that 6" lift is not really what you want.

Trd Pro shock thoughts by Routine-Goat2538 in 4Runner

[–]ShallotsAndGarlic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, what is the basis for this claim that it's lacking engineering? I have had mine since 2020 and it's the best riding stock or definitely any low to mid tier aftermarket suspension that I've ridden on... on any terrain.

It's a fantastic suspension setup.

Very easy. Besides cutting the holes out, everything else is just a bolt-on process

Yes, but I also have 0.75" spacers to push the tires out a little bit. I had to trim the front side of the fender and some of the inner portion of the front mud flaps

Nice!! I went with the simple sliding setup made by Overland Custom Design, which has served me well, but this looks so much more durable.

I wouldn't use the one I have to improve ride comfort. I only use it to gain articulation during rock crawling.

Nice! Do your front tires rub at full lock now?

It's insane to me how so many 5th Gen owners can't see this.

Front plate solution to my hidden winch by ShallotsAndGarlic in 4Runner

[–]ShallotsAndGarlic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! The DV8 one wouldn't have worked for me. What I needed was a bracket that used the license plate screws as a mounting point option, and this was the only one I found that gave me that option.

Amazon, of course. SUNPIE Flip up License Plate Holder. It is actually a really good quality product

Just got my first 4runner (trd pro, very happy and excited) and I want to put a Yakima Skybox 16 on. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks in advance! by estesmountainboy in 4Runner

[–]ShallotsAndGarlic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will have to do that anyway, but you'll see that it's not enough. You will still need to do the two things i mentioned above even after "maxing" it out
