    Hmmm I may be interested in the coils. How many miles on them? They are rate for 2 or 2.5 inches of lift?
    Also what are you planning on replacing Lola with?

    If I remember right, they have about 20k on them. Not sure how much lift they'll give over stock. I'll see if I can find my old measurements.

    I bought a 2015 4Runner Trail yesterday. I'm picking it up Tuesday evening.

    I did some off roading for the first time all year. It was a jeep event in Iowa. I got 3rd place in the off road vehicle show out of over 100 jeeps and a few others. I also beat the piss out of my skid plates, but they are still holding up fine. Nothing broke, so they did the job, as expected.

    I'd still call that a failure. Looks like it is touching your cat, and how much closer is it now to your transfer case. What will it look like the next time you hit it?

    Those skids need an actual rear crosmember and some reinforcement. My shit hasn't bent:

    But I digress, not like anyone has told you that before....

    That's my muffler, which is irrelevant since it always touched because it's huge compared to a cat. And the skid was bent long ago when I jumped onto a rock. But it still works a year later. And as usual I don't care what you think.
