4th Gen 4Runner rear shock help
Hey to all my yotatech brothers and sisters running 4th Gen 4runners.
I've just recently purchased a 2007 4Runner limited to build as my new family/daily driver.
Didn't like how low it looked and wanted to do a larger wheel and tire combo on it.
So as it had XREAS on it i would have to do new shocks all around.
I went with 5100 Bilsteins front and rear as i want to e right around 2.5" up front and 3.5" rear (I'm into the positive rake look)
so setup the front shocks for around 2.5" lift
and did 2" ICON rear coils with a 1.5" daystar spacer in the rear.
but now I've noticed that the bilsteins for the rear of the 4Runner are only for 2" of lift,
which means now that even under regular driving the shocks hit the Max extension travel.
just wanted to to ask for those members running more then 2" of rear lift which shocks are you running,
or what compression and extension measurements should i be looking for?
Thank you
