I am preparing for a full steel bumper/bullbar and winch combo and there is going to be alot of weight on the front end of my 5th Gen 4Runner. I am looking at suspension upgrades and preferably don't want to have to do this again... I recently put 5100's on with stock coils. I have experience with OME on other builds and always loved them. I know that the HD 887's can handle the weight and provide a level truck matched with 898's in the rear. My questions is, alot of guys are running ICON coilovers. It is quite a bit more expensive, however I would prefer to pay a higher price now then put OME on and but upgrade to ICON's later.
Two questions:
1. Will the ICON CO's handle all the extra weight with ease on my 4Runner like the OME HD's will and still provide a level truck... without cranking them so tight the ride sucks?
My rig is setup for overlanding/expedition (often ladened with camping equipment, gear, tools, and more weight)... not desert racing or anything like that.
I am probably looking to add 350Lbs to front end weight after bumper, winch, batteries, etc. and am wanting exactly 3" of Lift.
2. Will the OME 2887's work with the 5100's set at their lowest setting (thus hopefully providing equal 3" of lift front and rear)?
