Wondering on some opinions of those with Pre-runner with lift kits. My truck is 2 wheel drive but I want a litter more clearance and little more height out my truck. Nothing massive. Maybe a 3" kit. I know they have some kits with front spacers/rear blocks. Then some with front spacers/rear add a leaf.

What brand kits did you use?
How did you like ride quality after install?
Pics?

This is what I want more lift for.

Well, if you want the best stuff out there, look at ICON and RadFlow.

URD carries both lines and if you see something there you want let me know and I will get you set up with a nice discount on the system you pick out.

I am currently running the ICON Stage 6 on my 4Runner.

I would avoid the spacer lifts. Some good options that i would go for are the ome lift, toytec ultimate 3in lift, and the bilstein 5100 lift. Those are fairly priced lifts imo if all you is a taller ride. If you want to add a big bumper up front run the ome with the 886 coils, run 885 if not. Icon makes great stuff but is expensive, but you get what you pay for. Also you want to invest in some upper control arms.

The icon on the IRS site looks like its just a front kit. Does it include a rear with it or will I have to get a rear kit as well? I see you can adjust it how is it easy adjustable?

Your only by for your xrunner is going to be total chaos or American motorsports on the 5lug suspension. I assume you are talking about lifting your xrunner. They are the only teo companies that make midtravel/lift and LT kits for the second gen 5lug

You're better off making a thread on TW, but I will recommend a spindle lift and some new shocks. For the rear I suppose you could do blocks, but a new leaf pack or AAL would be best. What is your budget and how do you plan to use the truck?

icon makes both a front and rear lift
Gadget can correct me if im wrong but i believe radflo is made by icon and for lift purposes athe radflos should be perfectalong with the icon rear 3 leaf progressive add a leaf and icon rear extended travel shocks

I do not think RadFlo and ICON are the same company or do business with each other.

I had an 08 double cab and I went with an Old Man Emu setup. It was a true 3" lift and the ride was superb. They have options for strut stiffness from soft to stiff. If I had to do that lift again, I would definitely do Old Man Emu again.

Oh and the website I went through was toyteclifts.com.
