The dealer has 2 choices; with or without 3rd row seat.
Which one will give me 2 to 2.5 inches on a 97 sr5 4wd with no trailer hitch?
Also, do I use the bumpers that were installed in my stock springs for the rear suspension recall with the land cruiser springs?

Not 100% sure here but I don't think any of them give you 2-2.5" lift. There all 3"+ of lift. But logic makes me think the ones without 3rd row would give less lift because they would be holding less weight up in the rear.

With fj80 coils your looking at 3+ inches of lift, and as stated above logically the ones without the 3rd row are gonna be the best.

remember that the FRONT coils are being used off of the fj80, i would look into this a little more before deciding

i put 97 fzj80 coils on my truck. the springs had 100k on them and they lifted my 2000 runner 4 + "

There is also a correlation between the amount of turns in the coil and lift. The more turns, the higher the spring rate, and more lift.

To reiterate what Miller said, you are looking for FRONT 80 series coils for the REAR of your 3rd Gen 4runner.

This topic has been covered numerous times before. I'll bet if you'd search, you'd even be able to find part numbers!

Thanks all, I'll hit up the search.
I was looking for the quick answer because I've been searching for months on the best components to give me a 2 to 2.5" lift on the rear of my 4runner; I never thought it would be this hard; seems like there's a million options for the front, very few for the rear.

If you're looking for 2-2.5", you won't want LC coils out back. I did the shorter LC's and still got ~4" at first, which settled to ~3.75" now. They were new when I bought them. Try looking into OME springs. They have a number of options that will be closer to what you want.
