Looking good so far, excited to see where this goes. I just read a review on those tires in Toyota 4wd magazine and they seemed to like them.

how much lift from the OME setup?

seems like the perfect time to ask the source (ARB)... i would love to know: exactly how much lift will a 5th gen 4Runner get from the OME suspension setup? there's a little conflicting information out there... some say 2.5" while others say 3"...

looking good so far. thanks in advance for the info.

We officially list 3" in our application guides. Unfortunately not all follow the guide and instead install heavier springs than required which will give more lift, but also a harsher ride.

Also remember that the weight of aftermarket accessories will affect the final height as well. That's the reason we offer different spring rates; to cater to the weight of the aftermarket accessories.

We figured we would be adding a lot of weight with all of our product, (bar, rack, tent, drawer system, water bladder) so we installed our heaviest system which as you can see, is causing our 4Runner to sit pretty high without everything else installed.

Looking forward to it! The bumpers on the new Prados look excellent.

Seems like a pretty good height to me.

Looking forward to seeing the bumper. How did you get your line? Laser level?
