Wanting to replace shocks and fix sag
I bought my 4runner not to long ago and I'm wanting to do something about the horribly rough ride and the back is sagging.
What did you guys replace your shocks and leaf's with? I don't want to spent to much either.
thanks!

He's got a 1st gen...
You can do the zuk mod which is popular or just get new springs...

That's the same writeup I posted above...
The install pic's and instructions came from Philbert a member on here. Check his thread in my earlier post and do a search for zuk mod.
Buy yes, that's my suggestion.

I don't have any pictures as I don't have my 4runner with me but the back is bricked like 3-4 inches

Yeah I looked at it, I don't have the resources to cut anything and the T100's mod looks pretty straight forward. i guess ill come back on here once i get my truck back and post some better pictures of it.

I know some folks also use Chevy 63's on the pickups, they give a better ride, still carry the load, and give a bit of lift as well. I don't see why this can't be done on a Runner either. You will need to relocate the hangers and should use longer shackles as well.

There are no springs in the front...Well shouldn't be there should be torsion bars.
All depends on what you want to do with it. If you want to keep is stock then leave the front alone. Just fix the sag. If you want to lift there are may options.
My 92 pickup I'll be doing the Chevy 63 swap and a 1.5" BJ spacer. On my 95 4Runner I installed LC Coils and will be installing BJ spacers as well.
Here is a link for some good reading.
