Dumb Question Probably,

Hey,

This might seem dumb.. But my 4Runners not here right now, so I cant go check. I have a 97SR5, so I have 16" wheels right? And what Kind of axle do I have????

what do you mean? You have a solid axle in the rear, independant susp in the front. Most 3rd gen runners have 16" rims. Some had 15" like mine does

Ha, I know I have a Solid and IFS. But I was lookin on the internet for a locker. THat people recommended, and there was a ton of options for Toyota Axles, like 8" and stuff.
Ya know what I mean? Like theres GM 14 Bolts, Ford 9", but what about my SR5??

It is an 8" in the rear. Look for a factory 3rd with a elocker in it with the correct gear ratio

thanks! Yep..I do like it. Only the front components still are in use. I ditched the rear spacers and stock springs for landcruiser springs

Ya I like it!

Oh, another question. What year Land Cruise coils do you use? I know u use the Front coils for our rear coils... Do they just pop right in basically? Or is it a huge ordeal??

I forget what exact years. i think its 95-97. Yep..they go right in but you will need a good spring compressor or a lift with pole jacks. You will want to use the LC shocks as well

I got mine from a member on here for either $60 or $80 with the shocks I dont remember which. They seriously gave me about 4" of lift

Rly? Wow thats pretty good.
I think Im doing a 2" 4Crawler Body Lift, and LC Coils in the rear, and im not sure about the front yet. Either way, I wanna run 35's. Risky, I kno! But I wanna regear with 488s and some kind of locker to help me off road/ and keep some gas mileage. Thats what Steve from Sonoran reccomended to me.

Jeezus, these popups piss me off.
