Calling 99 stock suspension 3rd gens

FUZION · 02-24-2006, 06:11 PM

Can someone do me a favor and meaure your 99 4runner from the bottom side middle of the body (where running boards would be) to the ground. Of course with no lifts would be best. THANKS

Funrunner · 02-25-2006, 01:31 PM

Hi,

Would it be possible to include measurement from the hub center to the underside of the fender flares for both front and rear?

Appreciate it. Thanks!

FUZION · 02-25-2006, 04:30 PM

There were 2 different spring sets avaliable for the 99' the standard set and the HD one's that came with the tow package.

X-AWDriver · 02-26-2006, 07:43 AM

Is there a height diff with the different springs?

FUZION · 02-26-2006, 11:10 AM

yeah same question

So, if I have the tow package, why do I sit lower (since I would have the HD springs)? I didn't know this before....

Hmmmm...

paddlenbike · 02-26-2006, 12:26 PM

My 2000 measures 18.25"-18.5" with 275/70R16 tires. Subtract 0.25" for the tires and that puts it between 18.0" and 18.25" to the bottom of the pinch seam.

Center of hub to the bottom of the flare is 20" up front and 20.5" in the rear.

JHupp · 02-26-2006, 12:42 PM

I had about 18.5" stock(no boards), however, you must take into account the possible sag from older springs, mine had 40k, and a little bit of sag, after my lift I am at about 21" , and 21.5" towards the rear, hope this helps, I have an '01 with tow package. I am not sure if you will notice a huge difference in the height with just 99 coils, make sure they are new and have no sag.

What lift do you have? I just replaced my tired shocks/coils with new OEM units and I have the same measurements and I have the tow package.

How can you tell if it's a standard or HD. When buying, vendors usually asks only if you need it for sr5/ltd 2wd or 4wd.
