I drove both the ORP and TH before buying, and to ME the TH suspension felt a little bit stiffer than the ORP. The dealer said the TH was created to be ready to accept more weight for accessories people add when overlanding (rooftop tents, internal storage, fridge, etc), so the suspension over...
This is what other people here recommended to me:

They also have a soft shackle for a decent price.
Tell your sales person before it arrives that you don’t want anything added that you didn’t agree to ahead of time. Mine tried adding a crappy paint protection package for $1000 after I put the deposit down for our agreed amount. Got them to remove it, but it’s a tactic a lot of dealerships do...
I brought this up with my dealer, and they specifically said that I had to wait for the 4Runner specific kits to arrive. Even though they also admitted the parts are all the same.
My dealership is the only Toyota dealer within a 3 hour drive, so they know people aren't going to go elsewhere...
Also, while you don't NEED them, I'd recommend getting some car panel tools to make popping some of them plastic fasteners a little easier.

Here’s a good thread with info on how to fix the rattle with pics and such:

Just did this a couple weeks ago myself after the dealer refused to address the...
The Ego stuff is great, I've had no issues with any of their yard tools and always been impressed with how hassle free they are. The batteries last a lot longer than you would think.
My ORP came with the factory running boards, and even after driving and horsing around in the snow for hours this morning (pic below) I did not see any snow inside like your pics. The factory boards are great for this FWIW, I don't get any snow on the side of the truck with them. Maybe just a...
I’m just jealous some of you have been able to get the TSB fix done multiple times, I’ve been waiting months for parts to even get it done once. Mine was dead silent the first 1000 miles, but now that I have 6K miles it squeals EVERY time I back up regardless of incline parking, temps...
I took all the badges off as well (do this with all my vehicles), same day I got it. I like a clean look, and while not the main reason I did it, It’s easier to wash and apply any coatings or sealants. Very simple to do, took me 5 minutes. If you’re thinking of doing it, sooner is better than...
I've been happy with the stock ORP running board, low enough for my wife to easily use but high enough I'm not worried about snagging them on anything when off-roading. Bonus points for how they help with rock strikes on the side of the truck when on forest roads.
Yes, you also need to trick the tailgate into thinking it's closed or else the lights will stay on. Some people say their lights turn off after 20 minutes, but that's not what happens here sadly.
