Daystar 1.5" Leveling Kit Rear Compatible with/Replacement for 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser 4WD

Was exactly what we were looking for to complement the 2" RC struts up front and rear RC 0-3" shocks in rear. Simple install with minimal tools. Levels it out pretty good.

I just took these off my FJ cruiser. I ran them for years. They did what they were supposed to do, heald up great. In that sense they are a 5 star product. It's a great aesthetic improvement if you pair these with bilstein 5100 struts on the front adjusted to their highest preload for a cheap all around lift kit. These are fine for a street lift. For off-road, you actually want lift springs. Springs will improve your suspension whereas these are just for looks. I was able to pick up a set of bilstein rear springs for just $150, and I wonder why I ever bothered with these.

I installed this on a 2005 4Runner Sport. Originally, I put the 2.5" Daystar front on to level the front end, but the rear was just a little too low, maybe 1". This 1.5" for the rear was just right, levels the truck out just perfectly, it might sit just the slightest bit higher in back, but it looks much better than stock. The rear kit was so much easier to install than the front, it went on in about an hour start to finish working by myself with basic tools. It does not seem to have impacted ride quality at all, with about 3000 miles on it since installation. The spacers themselves are nicely made, seem to be very high quality. Overall very happy with the product, installation, and results.

Levelled out my 2005 4runner perfectly with the rancho quicklifts upfront.

Bought these for my 2012 FJ. I'm sure with the stock springs it's easy enough to install these but I was installing these on top of the medium duty MT long travel springs which only give about a 2" lift in the rear. What a pain trying to install them on top of those springs. Even with the use of a spring compressor I had serious trouble getting it in there. With that said I was worth adding the spacer. Ive noticed the rear soaks up bumps better and I don't feel like I'm about to bottom out. The shocks that come with the long travel kit are long enough to deal with the extra inch. I would recommend other people with the same lift I have to purchase this. It's a great and inexpensive way to get another inch and a smother ride out of the rear. For those of you who do not have any lift at all and are looking to buy these, I'd suggest you'd just keep saving and buy something that's gonna do more than just give you height. I did a spacer only lift when I first got my FJ and the ride quality just wasn't there. I don't think the rear OEM Shock was suited for the extra lift. For what it is the spacers seem like they'll last but again I wouldn't recommend a spacer only lift

Installed on my 05' 4Runner!! I did a 2.5/1.5" spacer lift on my car. I installed the 1.5" rear myself and the 2.5" front at the mechanic. I'll attach before and after photos! Looks so much better with the rear lifted a hair.

Nifty items for the price. I am not a spacer fan myself, but these are well made for the application. For those wondering: FJ Cruiser with total chaos, long travel racing suspension front and rear. Spacers like this are usually discourage, unless some muffin decides to remove some bump stops. I added these to save the shocks until I can fabricate new bump stops. That being said, they do lift the rear nicely, which on such a rig with 35"s is saying much. Then again, this ride sees hard offroad use, so a follow up review may be in order.

I ordered these for my 2012 4Runner to go with Bilstein 5100s up front. I paired them with Bilstein rear shocks and couldn't be happier. It is crucial that you upgrade shocks if you are adding these as the added length and spring compression will make the ride very uncomfortable without them. With the upgraded shocks, it rides better than stock. These gave me around 1.75" of lift, total, with upgraded shocks. With the front 5100s set at 2.5" up front my truck sits almost level, with about 1/4" higher in the rear. Tips on install- I did this by myself without a spring compressor. Do one side at a time. It's not super easy to get the second one in once the first one is in there. What I did was unbolt the panhard bar from the axle mounting location, which frees up some room for the axle to drop some more. Once you get the first spring in, jack up the end of the axle that is already installed. Pushing that side up will force the uninstalled side down. I then used my body weight to push the axle down further and fenagled the spring in there. Also, make sure you put some white lithium or silicone grease between the new spring and the bump stop to prevent it from developing any squeaks! Good luck!

Fits 2018 4Runner. With this spacer in the back and bilstein 5100’s set to 2.5” up front eliminated the rake and made my truc perfectly level.

Excelente calidad

Great increase in height and overall performance on the stock shocks are incredible. Recommend for anyone going on a budget lift.

Installation was easy on my 2005 Toyota 4Runner.

Easy install. Gives perfect clearance for bigger tires!
