From what I can tell, the front is not adjustable with the current MT64 version. I don't see any slots in the images, and the person at Mudify said it's a fixed 3" front setting. Perhaps OME will release an adjustable version, but for now I don't think the MT64 will meet my needs. Too bad... On...
I don't see how I could lower the MT64s because the rear spring sets the rear height and they only offer the 2" lift option. I suppose it might be possible to substitute a different rear spring and then lower the front, but that would waste the cost of the OME rear springs in the kit. I'll have...
Just spoke with Mudify, and the only available option for OME MT64 is 3-inch lift for front and 2-inch rear. They have other options for 5th-gen, but not for 6th-gen -- at least not yet.
I'm not sure I want or need to lift that much, since I would rarely need it and it would require UCAs and...
I'm still ambivalent about doing more than leveling the front. I guess 1.75" is a bit too much to just level the front on Gen6? I think my Bilsteins lifted the front of my Gen5 about 1.25" to level.
I'm ambivalent about overall lift because I rarely drive anywhere I can't go with stock height...
Thanks much! I love having data to help with any decision. The 6112s are a big step up (32.5% larger body diameter) while the MT64s are a smaller incremental step up from 6112s (7.5% larger body diameter).
Now I just have to decide whether I "need" the MT64s vs. Bilsteins. After I described my...
Mike, thanks for weighing in. Good to know that the 6112 kit is an upgrade. I've been running Bilsteins on my 2019 ORP for about 180K miles and have found them excellent. Only problem was a broken spring on a front strut, which required replacement of the pair (not under warranty, sadly).
I'm...
Apologies if I missed a discussion of this topic, but a quick search didn't find any threads that were pertinent:
Q. What is the difference, if any, between the OEM Bilsteins that come on the ORP and the aftermarket Bilstein 6112/6100 shocks?
I'll chime in with a NOCO recommendation. I've carried mine in my "emergency bag" in my 4R since 2019. Used it once and it worked nicely. I do have a monthly reminder in my calendar to top off the charge. It never takes more than a few minutes to top it off.
In my experience, insurance policies cover glass when the damage is sufficient to interfere with vision or create some other safety issue. 4Runner windshields seem to be rock magnets. I'm on my third windshield on my 2019 ORP (~185K miles), and I only replace the glass when the divot is in my...
I'll add another reason for a RTT vs. tent -- there may not be any suitable spot for a tent. I've been in backcountry locations where I wanted to camp at an overlook but the ground was completely rocky and rough and no way to set up a tent. A companion with a RTT was quite comfortable, but I had...
