The other thread had some "technical difficulties". But we think we have that ironed out now and we can return you to your normal programming.

It was just the light from Venus being refracted off a weather balloon by some swamp gas. Now look here ---->

Wow, a mod with a sense of humor... Where the hell did you come from?

That was great!

Funny story behind the springs.

I bought my 4Runner and hydrolocked it a week later. I needed a motor and found a wrecked 4Runner with a good engine that was a couple hours away. I swapped the motor, parted the truck (made more than my money back), and took the springs that were on the wrecked truck since they had already been replaced with non saggin ones.

As far as a brand goes, I don't know but they are yellow and they work.

The shocks I bought on sale at Advance Auto Parts. They are Rancho RS9000X. I think I got both for the rear for less than $80 or something.

I need to do the front shocks next but I can wait until I replace my driver side CV axle.
