What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

How much lift does this give you in the rear? How you liking them? Easy install?

 

The shocks themselves dont give any lift. Those looks like stock leaf packs, and no blocks, cant see if he installed shackles though. But my guess is zero lift in the back

 

Ok duh, I'm dumb. Need shackles/block/leaf pack, etc.

 

Woah

 

Really the new one has no buttons ??

 

Do ur sensors work accurately enough? I wanted to put mine there but got talked out of it by my buddy now I’m going to redrill them and put a amber light or maybe just a cap where I first drilled it

 

ARB Compressor installed. Wired up to my Caliraisedled controller.

 

I re used my original parking sensors and I placed them in what I though to be very close to the original bumper spots. Look at my bumper for the drill site. They work great, at drive troughs, bushes, parking lots etc. Hope this helps.

 

Such a proud dad, my baby is growing up

 

Not dumb, I didn’t do any of the lift items mentioned, just the shocks. So far they are noticeably better around town, the real test will be when I get on the 60 fwy going through riverside - it used to ride like a jack hammer lol... I will report back

Edit: my truck originally came with the black cheapo Toyota shocks, I believe they are the worst in Toyota’s suspension lineup.. the front is still stock with a leveling kit so I’m not expecting a major improvement until I switch those out with new coilovers

Edit2: very easy install, took 20 minutes

 

THanks for the info. I am wanting the fox's as well and thought i'd do the rears first then the fronts. I think i want the 2.5's though since i have a topper/rooftop tent and do some off road trails. I also have a leveling kit but with the trd off road bilsteins (blue/yellow). You have a leveling kit but nothing in the back (block, shackles)?

 

About $520 for the dual battery kit, another $500 for the two batteries. Will be adding the G screen later for another $250ish.

 

Correct, nothing in the back, I do construction and am constantly in n out of the back with tools so I’m not going to lift, I’d like the 2.5’s but for me seem unnecessary, the front will be 2.5’s though. I currently have a 2” leveling spacer in the front and it sits pretty close to level, when I get coilovers I’ll set it to 2.5” and go one up with tire size and I’ll be happy.

 

Ah, 2" in front makes sense as i thought you were 3" in the front, which is why i asked what you had in the back.

 

What fox suspension do you have on your 4runner?

 

Yea I didn’t want to stress the stock uppers too much, just wanted to get rid of the stink bug look. Here’s how it sits now- I want just a little more height up front

 

Do you feel like the 2.0 fox's on your 08 runner are enough for off roading (not rock crawling)? Or would you suggest 2.5's? Or even maybe 2.0's with resi's?

 

Just need to move the lightbar up to the top section.

 

So i'm sure the question on everyones mind. When did you receive your pelfreybilt bumper?

Edit: Also looks great!

 

Got it around the end of July. 24th or 25th. Just haven't been able to put it on because my arm.

 

Well that excitement didn't last long.

Congrats on have a rare bumper.

 

Thanks, yea I got to be one of the lucky ones.

 

Looks so good Brian!

 

Thanks! Now to put the fogs in and the rest of my stuff on the truck lol. Have a little more wiring, mudflaps, rear leds, panels for the rack, mounting all the crap on the rack, hooking up the winch, abs guards, and hard wiring my dash cam.

Stupid arm...

 

Give her a bath one last time this summer, here we go fall season

 

Spyder smoked black headlight , powder coated bumper ends , Powder coated wheels . Really had to monkey with the right headlight to get it to fit clean .

 

It’s the little things lol

 

Somewhere around 4:30 this morning on my way to work the odometer rolled over to 20k miles.

And I missed it.

But of those 20k miles about 5k of them were in Baja for races, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

 

I gotta admit that I'm more than a little envious that your truck has spent 1/4 of its life in Baja races.
