Purchased my '26 to heritage Blue, Sr5 with 3rd row, 4wd, from Ed Mark Toyota in Idaho on Feb of 2026 and drove it home to SoCal.

Here's the build so far:
Kings front and rear 2.5s (w/o adjusters)
Dobinson 885 rear springs (1.5 lift)
SCS Blaze 10 wheels
285/70/17 Nitto Recon Grapplers (sl load)
CBI rock sliders
Trailhunter engine skid
Front ceramic tint

Here's my thoughts on the aftermarket parts. Kings are pretty stiff. You definitely feel the smaller bumps more, but there is more articulation. When fully loaded, they soften a bit I will likely get them revalved since King offers to do them for free within the year.

Dobinson springs ride like stock, but were a bit of a pain to install since they are significantly taller than stock springs. I had to use a spring compressor when installing them. They gave about a 1.25 inch lift in the rear.

I love the SCS wheels. The finish is excellent, they're hubcentric and are lightweight. They also shipped out to me immediately and received them in a few days after ordering them.

The recon grapplers have been ok so far. I chose them because they are lightweight They seemed to balance well, very little vibration, if any, at freeway speeds. The road noise is more than a wild peak at3 or Toyo at3, but I would not consider them loud. Haven't taken them on rough roads so we'll see how they hold up.

CBI sliders - the build quality is excellent, were packaged very well to avoid damage from shipping, but had exactly a 4 week lead time as advertised. They forgot the correct threaded bolts, so I had to wait an extra week for them to arrive to install. A little frustrating after an already 4 week lead time. One other gripe, the sliders hang too low in my opinion and rob some clearance. I feel they could have hugged closer to the body about 2 more inches or angled them up. They would still work as a step as they stick out far enough.

Overall though still pretty happy with how the build came out. It's my daily and I average about 19mpgs/310 miles range.

Readylift level has it just about flat. No rubbing whatsoever at this point, have not been offroad though. +25 offset Fifteen52 Analog HD Wheels w/ 285/70/17 tires seems to be a smidge past fenders anywhere but straight above.

Have not been impressed w/ ride quality thus far, but don't think it got worse from stock with these changes. Gas definitely did, maybe 20 on the highway not using cruise control. Do love the look though lol, very fortunate to have started this with low expectations as far as mpg.

Thinking ASFIR skid next as they seem to be one of the only brands bridging the space to the bumper, hope to be done then.
