Help Finding a lift

I bet you thought I was going to ask what's the best lift or can I fit 35s on no lift. Wrong. Lol

Anyways, it seems everyone is out of stock with every lift bilsteins/ome/kings/icon/dobinsons/etc.

So if you know someone that has stock of a full suspension lift sub $2k please link them below. Im on the hunt for a 21 OR

S.D.- I tried reaching out to Marie and Headstrong and I don't think she works there anymore idk.

 

For the price, I had always planned on the ironman 4x4 lift. Seems to get good reviews, just aren't as popular as the brands you mentioned in the OP. I believe they are in stock

 

I checked and cant seem to find them in stock online without a waitlist or leadtime. My buddy runs ironman on his GX and likes it so I take your word for it

 

Have you checked the Eibach kits? Specifically at Wheelers.

 

Well damn lol. Good to know your buddy likes them. Way back when, when I was trying to find info on them I could only find reviews on the GX and land cruiser platforms.

 

I appreciate it, I looked at a few websites and they are on backorder till may/june but wheelers says "Stock availability may be affected by COVID-19 closures". I'm just making an assumption they are out of stock but I may call tomorrow and see if they got some in the warehouse

 

Yeah he told me mostly those two vehicles run them even tho the GX is on the same platform as the 4runner and I never heard of a 4runner running them

 

Pretty sure fox is still in stock. I bought the Fox 2.0 Performance suspension 2 weeks ago it had them installed for ~$1650 (parts + labor)

only lifted it 1.5 inches though

 

X2 for Ironman, usually their site gives a date when back in stock and I think they’re usually pretty good with those.
@2013XSPX might be able to hook you up. I think they’ll even powder coat the coils a different color.

 

Unfortunately, they are also in stock. However while doing my research, seems like a good bang for your cause it comes with full leaf pack, and ucas for sub 2k if you catch a coupon

 

That’s why I went with them but I bought directly from IM. I went with a different UCA though. Good luck if that’s what you end up with!

 

you had any problems with rust on the iron man kit?

 

Nope, just a little oxidation on the strut lock rings. The leaf packs I sprayed down with Woolwax before winter and they’re held up well with that. I’ve not had any issues with the kit. I did/do have a driveline vibration but that’s lifting in general and not really a fault of the kit.

 

If i can swing the 25% off, i will purchase it asap! thanks for feedback

 

Most vendors are drop shippers, they dont actually stock the parts but place orders as middle-men so lead times should be expected. Companies like King make shocks per order so again, expect lead times.

 

Yeah I was hoping small shops like toytec or headstrong that usually keep stock in warehouse would have something but they are all backordered. I know that kings are built to order but I can't afford kings. But I recently found that cali raised off-road has some stuff in stock but they are all elka and at that price, I might as well wait for kings lol

 

I was wanting to put together a budget Billstien 5100 kit but Headstrong seems to be out of stock when I check every few weeks. I have the money to spend but I am just taking it as a sign I'm supposed to stay stock a while longer.

 

Headstrong is also a drop shipper in many cases but they’ve messed up too many orders for me to ever give them my business again.

 

Sheesh, I think I'm just going to wait for iron man for a few days

Btw sweet rig.

 

Speaking to many vendors. Seem bilstein is MIA and they are random with inventory

I wanted to do 5100s too but doesn't look like that's going to happen
