    She wants that as well. We are just finding with 2 kids that we need a 3rd row and the highlander 3rd row is so small. Good for little ones, but adults would never fit. Plus the sliding doors are nice.

    Same thing happened last year before I bought my 4runner. Was about to buy a really clean double cab short bed (MGM), but his wife convinced him to keep it right before I wrote the check...
    Matching yayayayay.
    I'm ripping my 3rd row out. You can just bolt it right in to your vehicle. Should fit great!

    I am. Will sell to you for cheap if you can wait until aprilish. I like them, just added too much weight with my rear bumper and need something stronger.

    ToyTec said they'd pair better with their rear BOSS shocks, and 5100s would be a firmer ride but cheaper option. Curious what shocks were used for the guys who didn't like the ride.

    I actually liked the ride on my SuperFlex Coils better when I didn't have the bumper which is funny because I got them to support the weight. They aren't very stiff coils.

    If you can swing it, go a step above 5100s.

    Not sure how the BOSS shocks compare, but at $209 a set, aren't cost prohibitive. Not looking to sacrifice much ride comfort (for my woman's sake..).

    Yeah I guess pairing them with bypasses and air bumps, it would be hard for the ride not to be okay.
