    well after many many conversations with members like @ColoradoTJ and @Black Wolf I made my decision and ordered the kit today from toytec

    Going with the OME 612 and toytec adjustable shackles.

    Going to keep the tss tires and wheels for now but maybe changing them out in the future.

    The OME came highly recommended for how I use my truck and of course the price fit well into my budget.

    I did try for several weeks of talking to Toyota and my dealer speaking to their regional rep to purchase the Fox trd pro suspension but everyone says no.

    Still looking forward to this kit.

    Will update with pics hopefully late next week.

    I think you'll be happy with it. Like I have mentioned, it's all I have run on my Toyotas and Disco II.

    could I ask how you plan to use your truck. I'm nowhere close to being able to afford a lift kit but I'm trying to figure out what would work best for me so when I have the money its an easy choice. I was looking into OME a lot when I had my 88 4runner so I'm still interested in them especially if they fit my wants and needs

    It’s mainly a pavement pounder 80% of the time daily driver

    The other 20% is back dirt roads and pastures
    Maybe some logging roads in se ok.

    Nothing extreme

    Ah sweet I was wondering how it would look with the TSS wheels and tires, any side shots?

    I like those TSS wheels a lot better than the ones I have on my 2016. I never liked the silver trim on mine.
    Nice looking truck. What kind of tires are those?

    From what I've gathered, the Aussies that off-road as a way of life swear by OME. I think you'll be really happy with it.

    The OME's in my humble opinion are the best bang for the buck. Even though I have a set of Fat Bob coilovers and Zone UCA's taking up space on my kitchen table, I'm definitely going with the DAKAR rear leaf packs from Toytec and Pro Form Fab 1.5" shackles to maintain rake. My ARE MX topper is a constant load plus another 100lbs minimum of gear that's always in my bed. I went a slightly different direction out of curiosity and some research. I don't expect any issues with the FBG Vated with Bilstein guts specifically tuned coilovers at all.

    I have an OME lift.
    I’m pretty sure it is the 612 as well...the least stiff one since I don’t have a winch.
    I really like mine and it has been absolutely trouble free.
    Be prepared for a much stiffer ride though. It will definitely ride like a truck.

    Yep, a bit stiffer on my 07 but not outrageous. It's all about choosing the right coils for the load you have out front. If you decide to add a heavy bumper with winch.....easy to upgrade OME coils, which are actually ARB....
