    I am looking for pics and info on the Toyotec Boss kit. It looks like a pretty smooth set up. Any reviews would be awesome! I plan to run 285's and I want to be completely level. I spoke to the guys @ Toytec, and they have not built one with this set up yet. I think this is what I am wanting to pull the trigger on. Here is the breakdown I am looking at:

    Front Coilovers- Boss 2.5 Series
    Rear lift- Toytec 2 inch AAL
    Rear Shocks- Toyotec Boss Remote Reservoir 2.0
    UCA's- factory

    Who did you talk to at @ToyTec Lifts?

    Toytec has had 3 different BOSS front lifts on the 2016. 2.0, 2.5 and 2.5 with remote reservoirs.

    Just to clarify, you want to level your truck using a BOSS kit, correct?

    Why not do something similar to what Toytec did to theirs? Fantastic setup and I haven't heard of any complaints from them on it.

    I want to lift it but be level. I had the 5100 set up on my 2015. I have the Trd pro 4 Runner 17's and want to run 285's. Basically, same set up on the 16 I had on my 15. I do not want to do the 5100 set up again.

    We might have miscommunicated. We've only tested the Boss system thus far but that will be changing soon. Either way, you should give me a call tomorrow and i'll get you a setup figured out.

    :cheers:

    This is the one that RSG did. Good guys over there. Can't say enough about the ride w/ the lift and tire combo. Very pleased w/ it so far!

    rdlmac did above. He seems to love it. I am looking hard at that set up. I just kind of want to see what else becomes avail on the market. I am not in a huge rush.

    I have not done the ECGS bushing. Haven't had any issues as a result of not doing it.
