2 inch front lift.

[Flannel_Lover]

Need cheap but good lift kit for the front end of a 2011. Ideally under 150-200. And don't get pissed that I want to put cheap parts on a nice truck I am not going to do any hardcore off-roading just some light trails. Already have a rear aal lined out just want to order it all at the same time.

Save money for 5100s.

What is so wrong with a 2in spacer of you are not gonna be off roading?

Nothing at all. Just make sure you get one that mounts above the spring/strut combo.

The spacer between the shock and mount makes the shock bottom out before you hit the bump stop. The spacer just above the coil makes the ride harsh since the stock coils aren't meant to be preloaded more which is a problem with the 5100s and stock coils. Why would you want to bottom out the shock early or make your ride worse?

This setup works awesomely! Bilstein 5100's OME 886 heaviest because of bumper, winch, two batteries! Light racing UCA's! I put 188,000 miles with all kinds of wheeling on this set up!
Sold the FJ , setup was in it! Building a 2007 Taco double cab now!
