anyone with trail gear sas kit...which rear lift do you recomend??
Im going to go with a trail gear ifs eliminator kit. Im doing the three inch lift which really means 4 with the shackles. Im wondering then which rear lift should I go with?? trail gear rep pretty much said "it depends"...says the three inch rear might be a little lower than the front, and the 4 inch would probably end up a little higher, but I got the feeling he wasnt really sure.
Has anyone done the trail gear sas and matched with trail gear rear lift that they might have some pics or knowledge on?
thanks

With the suspension fully flexed and stuffed I just start rubbing the rear quarters. I also have a 1" body lift. No touching on the front stuffed/lock to lock.

So mine went down like this. On a 4Runner not a truck so YMMV.
TG 4" front kit
TG 5" rear kit
In addition to the 1" larger rear kit, Steve fabbed up these 2 inch blocks to mount the shackle hangers on to start with.
Then it looked like this immediately after the lift.
After 2 weeks it looked like this.
So we swapped out the 5" shackle plates that came with the kit for 6" plates to make it look like this.
That last pic with it a little rearend high is before any settling if there is any and with no gear in the truck and no 35" spare that still needs to be loaded. Not sure how much heavier a 4Runner is over a truck, but it gives you an idea. The swap thread is here FWIW... https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f66/...-s-sac-155872/

Here's a whole group of guys that are very familiar with Trailgear products. Most of them have them on their trucks now. They'll answer any question you have about any of it.

4Runners and PickUps are different creatures and cannot be treated the same.
Typically 4Runners need 1" higher total lift in the rear, 4" in front, 5" in rear.
PickUps you run them straight up, 4" in front, 4" in rear.
Thus ends today's lesson.
