Urban Runner Leveling Kit?

I've been looking for a leveling kit for my Urban Runner because the front end is so much lower then the rear, and that bothers me. But every kit that I find it says "Will not fit XREAS suspension."

Can anybody help me out?

have you looked at the truxxx kit? Looks pretty good from what I can tell and its designed to work with XREAS.

Fo sheezy...forget the leveling kits...I put one on my tacoma and it leveled it too much. You should know by now that Toyota rear springs suck. Give it a little while and the rear end will sag to match the front.

All 5 of the Toyota trucks I have owned over the years eventually needed help with the rear springs...

It may also help to search for sport edition 4Runner's since the Urban 4Runner is nothing but a sport with a few sucker gadgets.

the rear coils on my 2003 have not faded, even after 5 years and 2 years of that towing a boat. I think the coils have gotten better. I'd keep looking. unless your'e going to tow something, your'e best bet is to ditch the XREAS and do a coilover like a Donahoe, but that is probably too much suspension for your street machine. Or just cut the coils in the back.

Yup, it'll definitely be a Street King, I mean hell, this thing is way nicer than 02 and everybody knows how well I took care of it.
