Hello guys and gals. So, I replaced my rear springs with moogs pretty recently (8ish months ago) and still notice that the rear sagging (not a lot..but it's noticeable). Do I need to do something else to even her out? Is the front too high? I have seen a lot of threads on sagging rear ends, but the answer is usually: replace the springs. Note that the shocks were replaced on all four corners about 6 months ago as well. Thanks for any input.

Every toyota truck I had needed an add a leaf in the rear pack to boost the height and get rid of the sag.

I always went with the pro comp kit. I can try to hurt down some part numbers.

Hope this helps.

Seems like these are your options:

Coil spacers from downey, 4crawler, whatever. Fix the sagging rear and basically wait for the springs to sag even more. May or may not be a permanent fix.

Another set of replacement springs. Same deal, might last about the same amount of time as the ones you put in this round.

Aftermarket springs or cruiser coils. This is probably the most permanent fix. Plenty of coil selections out there ranging from stock height to whatever kind of lift you want.
I ended up getting LC coils for mine, which inadvertently began a landslide of parts upgrades and replacements since the rear end was now much much bigger than the front. I do not recommend cruiser coils as a cheap way to simply level the rear and call it a day.

That rear sag was built into the 4Runners. It was Toyota's way of making them handle the way they thought they needed to. True story, it's "supposed" to be that way. The cheapest way to fix it is get a spacer. I prefer to use a heavier spring, myself. The last one I bought was from Downey, so no-go on that, but I'm certain there are a hundred other companies selling the same thing. I believe it was sold as a 2" spring. You'll probably want a longer shock to go with it.

Also, the Land Cruiser springs are way too tall. The springs you have now settled to where they will stay, not really sagged. That is where they are supposed to be. If you threw some spacers in there now it would stay at that height for the life of the spring, more or less.

So I say (and I went through this myself) get a set of 1.5-2" rear springs, which will be a little tall when you install them but will settle, or get some spacers.
