Help wanted picking a suspension kit! (Ironman4x4/Bilstein/OME)

Haven't purchased yet I'm pretty sure I will but I need to talk to my mechanic (my dad) haha. I'm thinking for what it is and the price it's pretty tough to beat especially with a free air compressor and air down gauge. I have the same color truck and I'm wanting to run method NV 305's in bronze so I'm really not wanting to throw a green spring in the mix. I know it would bother me even if it's minor so I'll be getting it painted black so long as it isn't over a few hundred $. I'm thinking of doing the suspension/wheels/tires all at once and then I still need to get a color-matched grill surround piece and then I'll be happy for a while. Used to have that grill and lights but sold it to a friend here thinking I was gonna sell the truck and get a tundra but now I'm just gonna keep the Tacoma and spend a little on upgrades. Where did you get your color-matched surround piece?

 

I got it during some crazy TRD sale Toyota HQ had a while back. That's how I got the TRD "Beadlock" wheels as well. If you'd like to order through my buddy let me know because I know he can save you money.

Yeah if the green will bother you and you know it it's better to address it now.

 

Save some money through Ironman4x4 or just on toyota stuff? Let me know how that process would go and how much cheaper he can get I would appreciate it.

Local shop quoted me $75-$100 for them to be sand blasted and coated black so I will definitely be doing that.

 

Just in case anyone was curious I just made my decision and ordered the Ironman4x4 Foam cell stage 2 for $1655 shipped! Couldn't be more excited to install it in the next few months. Will definitely run into some problem or question I need answered and will be posting about it but until then thank you all for the feedback!

 

Congrats on your purchase. That’s a great price. That’s $200 more than I paid for the stage 1. I might have done that too lol.
If you’re doing the ECGS, there is a coupon code on here somewhere, it might just be TW. Welcome to the club within the club!

 

That’s a really good price. Looks like you got another 10% off their current sale price. look forward to seeing the final product.

 

I’m interested in this kit to how did you get the additional discount? Thanks

 

I have a hookup on the largest Ironman dealer in the US. I purchased my kit from him and have hooked up 3 other people so far. I got the full Stage II kit for a price I won't post but would be happy to send you over to him.

 

definitly! It would be much appreciated

Just wanted you to be aware of some of the issue that one can encounter as they lift there Tacoma. And the fact that most start out thinking they want just (this) and end up wanting more and the more again before too long.
