Ultimate Lift - Ton of Yotatechers on Tundrasolutions

Maybe this should be in off-topic but I thought I was being smooth going over to tundrasolutions.com to look for front springs. Boy was I wrong. There were a ton of you on there with "WTB" threads.

Have any of you been successful? Just curious.

I got a set over there. They turned out to be 4x2 coils though.

They are giving me a really good ride and a 1/4" lift in the front. I added the daystar 1.25" top spacer and I am really happy with the lift. I've put about 300 miles on them and two wheelin trips and I have no complaints.

My wife even likes how it handles now.

Weird thing is that bamachem has the 4x2 springs as well. Did you get the non-TRD version?

I got a pair of 4x4 trd coils off a DC Tundra cheap within 1-2 days of posting. Its a good place if you are looking for the coils cause there are always guys on there throwing aftermarket coilovers on their trucks.

just be patient, some will turn up.

Nope, they are 100% TRD.

Lets not bring this arguement back up, only the 4x4 coils work for the lift.

Oh yeah, I'm sure he is... My point was that if people aren't finding them used and are getting fed up with waiting, then Steve may be getting them in bulk and be able to crack a discount (beyond the normal online cut) for people.

I was having a terrible time finding the stuff, was discussing with Steve through e-mail about buying the doff drop spacer and panhard bar, well i clicked on the website and saw that and just bought all of it from him, it is on its way and should all be here in ine single box. that is convenience.
I am excited.

So you bought the lift package? Let us know how it works out for you! That lift is compiled of parts from TONS of research, alot of which is posted on this forum. My guess is it is going to be the most satisfying lift out there right now.

Yeah, I will def report back.
I got the drop panhard bar early today and it looks stout. the rest is on its way.
yeah i read every post about lifts for 4Runners, and decided that i would try this one, noone had any complints agains it, unlike the spacers and the OME wich alot more people disliked than i felt should if it were the best for what i want. I am not going to lie, i am a very light off roader, just wanted to sit a little higher and ride better, and the cost is cheaper than replacing the oem toyota suspension stuff. so I thought why not UPgrade in the process. I think that with 265's it will not look like a monster truck, but will be a tad higher. maybe not noticable to the untrained eye. but will be more than capable to go almost anywhere i would ever go.
