    @20tacosr5 I ran the front TC stock length for a couple years on my 03' 4Runner. Solid kit.
    I measured almost 10" of wheel travel.
    I live in Florida so my options for high speed are limited, but on dirt bike trails and power line roads, it did really well.
    I posted some GoPro footage below. I have to say spindle and shock tower gussets are a necessity even for stock length. You can see how much frame flex there is, even on these mild trails here in the swamp. So to do it right there will be some fab work for the front as well. FYI: all these kits will make noise, so you will need Super Lube or Prothane grease for your bushings and Triflow Teflon lube for the uniballs. And they still make a little noise....
    2UZ 120 Total Chaos stock length.

    Thanks for all the helpful info guys. I'm going to buy some fiberglass this weekend and then suspension soon. My wallet isn't ready for this money pit...

    I found a brand new set of McNeil fenders for $800 on FB marketplace. Might as well pick it up
