(though as people have stated elsewhere, any kit will eventually settle - whether it's the spacers themselves or the suspension components)

the picture you posted of your Daystar spacers was very telling ... and while it was much better still than a NE spacer, it was still a little more deformed than i'd like to see. my revtek kit didn't settle that way, and the top spacer is metal, though the lower spacer feels heavy and tough enough to be metal too. (but i don't think it is?)

Below pictures of some of my Daystar "testing", should give you a good idea that they were well used in offroading

I pulled the trigger on a daystar kit from wheelers. Good guys and did it for 239 shipped. I'm pretty handy but have never done any suspension work, easy install? Does anyone have specific directions addressing 4runners with xreas? Or know of any good write ups. I searched but not much came up. I'm pumped to get the kit installed with the hanna sliders and move away from the soccer mom truck.

Thanks.
