'99 tall coil lift on a 2001 4runner

How much lift will I get from this? I cant find any threads lifting a 2001-2002, since they are lower than all other years.

Think Ill get more than 1 inch? 2 inches maybe??

It should be close to two. You sit one inch lower than me right now with my 98, and those springs would lift me one inch. Not sure were you plan on getting your springs from but Sonoran Steel has a kit with the 99 springs. Also there is a lot of good information on his site that should also verify my information...

Here is a link to the system 3 kit:

I'm thinkin 2". 2001 is the lowest, right? Mine's an 01 and my 265s scraped before I lifted it.

Awsome, sounds like ill be going with the 99 coils and a 1" BL.

Anyone got advice on shocks? Im looking for the best ride quality not so much offroad.

Are bilsteins overkill?

Bilstein blue and yellow's are a sweet shock. I've got them on my '99 with tall coils....and I didn't realize how nice they ride until driving several other stock 4runners with OEM shocks. The Bil's are amazing on road. I just did a 1300 mile trip and on decently smooth roads it rides like a car...not a solid axle truck!
