It's the same front end as the Tundra, and yes the coilovers or adjustable 5100's would fit. I have adjustable Downey's on the front of mine (no longer made). It is a a very comfortable ride for the front. I do wish it were more heavy duty, though they claim it is an improvement of 200lbs per spring compared to stock static load capacity. I would much rather have purchased the Icon's or something a little beefier. If you want to go cheap, just go with the daystar leveling kit until you can purchase the coil-over. I'm also looking at changing the rear Downey 2" springs for some Old Man Emu rear FJ100 series heavy duty 2" rear springs and the Old Man Emu shocks which appear to be similar length and extension. The FJ100 series Land Cruiser is actuall 95lbs heavier than the Sequoia, so it should be pretty close. As far as my research has gone, I've not seen anyone try them yet...so I'll not really know if the ride height in the rear is the similar until I do it.
