Check the distance between the frame mounted bumpstops and the axle. It may be that the "normal" height needs to be adjusted up to keep the axle from bottoming out on larger bumps.

That looks good! 4" seems like it should be enough.

I think the easiest way is to disconnect the bottom of the shock, put on spring compressors finger tight, the jack up the vehicle, put the frame on jackstands, let the axle back down and pull out the spring. Then you have to compress the new spring and put it back up. The new springs may need...

My understanding is you have to set the fader, volume (preset - still adjustable from new HU), and other audio settings from the factory HU before installing the aftermarket unit. Once the aftermarket unit is installed, you don't have access to the "audio" settings anymore. So the factory...

I have factory rear-seat entertainment and have heard this adapter won't work with the RSE. Otherwise I'd have bought it by now. I have factory bluetooth but it works very intermittently so I'm looking for an alternative.

Looks good - I'm glad it turned out well! How much space is there between the frame-mounted bumpstop and the rear axle?

Ah - thx for the info on the sliders. Not quite convinced to do weld-on yet.

Looks nice! Can't wait to see it on a truck. Is there a place to see pictures/prices of the sliders?

That's great - love to see some photos if you get a chance. Also - I'd love a photo of the rear axle showing the spring, secondary isolator (if it has one) and the bumpstop - I'm trying to get an ideal of which spring configurations in the rear are giving the best ride with the least lift. Thanks!

Looks nice! How are you liking the SL3B-L Bluetooth kit? Does it handle the handsfree calling and audio streaming or just streaming? I have the factory bluetooth but it is sketchy and doesn't always work consistently. I'm looking for some other option for bluetooth that includes streaming.

Wow coops2k - that is really close. I'd be curious if you need the bumpstop spacer. If there is no contact of the tire when stuffed I'd be tempted to take out that spacer or reduce its height. Do you feel it bottoming out consistently?

Very interested in your experience. I think the FJC springs are just too soft/short for this application. I'm curious what the stock-height springs Metal Tech sells are for.

How about 55401-60900 or 55401-60904 followed by C0 C1 or E0 depending on the color. I think the 904 is for mark levinson and the other is for standard audio.

It seems like a control issue - maybe a faulty connection or one of the sensors intermittently not communicating or sending false data. Definitely the worst kind of issue to troubleshoot in my opinion. If the airbags aren't leaking, the system is telling it to deflate.

I ordered Icon 2" springs from Metal Tech and some stock 4runner/FJ bumpstops (PN 48306-60180). The bumpstops for the coil-sprung 4runner/FJC are a couple inches shorter (see the second image in the first post). I will post back with an update when I get the springs replaced. I think the...
