MT-64 suspension question

[stritt45]

I ordered the MT-64 kit for my 2025 4Runner. I have 32 inch tires on it. I plan on leveling it at 1.5-1.75 inches with UCAs. I did not order rear springs to lift the rear. Has anyone done something similar? Im afraid it wont be level and I’ll be nose high. I’m afraid the truck will look weird with a larger lift and only 32s.

I mean I guess of it doesn’t work out I’ll order rear springs and new wheels/tires. I’m trying to delay adding new wheels and tires until next year. Any insight would be great!

I have the Fox 2.0 Performance Series front & rear with 2" front lift. Also added Peak Suspension 1" spacers on top of the OEM rear springs to maintain some rake.

Yea I may do something like that. I’m concerned about sagging when I load up and head out west this summer.

I have the orp model with the pretty red Toyota bilsteins. I went with the all dogs off-road 2 in front coil and a 3/4-in polyurethane Apache spacer in the rear. Leveled perfectly. I did the whole job for $325 and it rides great. It's worth a look.

If you're going to go normal off-roading without crawling up Moab, for me this is fine. Very solid setup. I see a lot of people spending 3-4k for shocks and coils that are never used. Just my two cents here

I installed MT64's on all 4 corners and you will not be nose high using the minimum setting of 1.75" as the front lift range is 1.75" to 3". At the minimum setting you'll be 0.25" to 0.5" lower in the front after installation. I also installed the Icon .75" lift rear coil springs and set the fronts to 2.25" which is the third circlip setting from the bottom. Also running 265/70R18 tires which are 32.6".

I suggest measuring the distance from the center of the hub to the bottom of the fender on all four corners before installation, and I believe you'll see the front is approx 2" lower than the rear. One thing to keep in mind, if you plan to add any weight to the front, such as bumper, winch, skid plates, you'll need to take that added weight into consideration when setting the front coilovers. I added the bumper, winch, and skid plates after I installed the coilovers and now I need to adjust them again to attain level.

I was looking at going with the Icon springs as well. How does it rode with MT-64s and Icon springs?
Appreciate all your info!

I’ve been very pleased with my setup. I did 350 miles across north GA a couple of weeks ago and the MT64’s provide a good balance for road and trail.
