Front Lift Setups
A while back I bought the 3" Toytec lift for my 96 4runner.
The kit replaced the rear springs and came with spacers for
the front-1 coil spacer and 1 top out spacer. However, my
front is getting lower and lower (since the stock springs
were already starting to sag before i put the lift on). And i
believe the spacers make them sag faster. I want new
springs and am going to try and get rid of the spacers in the
front. or maybe just keep the top out spacer if i have to.
So I am looking for opinions and suggestions for front lift
setups. I would very much appreciate any reply's. Also if
you could list where I can purchase the parts you suggest
that would be awesome.

His setup does seem pretty nice but I already have my setup in the back that I am happy with. Does anyone know where you can purchase parts of his front setup separately?

How about some OME springs and shocks? I believe your toytec rear has OME springs. If this interests you, try Strap22 as he gets really good prices for these.

OME front springs and struts would be nice however i'm trying to find alternatives to maybe keep down on the price. I'm going to look into the TRD tundra coils some more. My other dilemma is the shocks. I have rancho RS5000 now but with the spacers, the shocks are fully extended. For shocks i want to find extended ones that aren't as expensive as the OME's

Yeah, I think the whole assembled coil-over thing is kinda crap. Why would someone want to spend $1000 + on a pair of coil-overs when you get the same travel from an OME coilover or OEM coilover. And half the price.
