I am curious if anyone has any experience or opinions with this gen4 Sienna lift system:

It looks like these just add spacers to the coil springs, without changing anything else?

I notice that the journeys off road kits have many items included in their kit that help with brake lines, etc. Hard to know which items are critical if I only want 1" to1.5" of lift.

For that size of a lift, you might be able to get away with it. It seems like it would work in the rear, but a complete strut tower spacer might be better up front. A lot of folks have used the Traxda kit.

Here are a few good posts on the topic:

Thanks, the Traxda kits seem like a good option. Any idea why their full kit specifies a 2" lift on the front, but only a 1.8" lift on the rear? Also, it seems like Traxda only makes a kit for gen3 Siennas, not gen4 Siennas ...

I think the kit is like that to make it level when unloaded. If you fill it with passengers or cargo, it would probably Baja out with a sagging rear.

I totally missed that you had a 4th gen. Here is an interesting discussions on it that I’ve seen for 4th gen lifts:“Real Lift”

The Journey Kit looks well engineered, but that is a significant lift!
