I have 4" suspension and 3" body, running 35's on my 85. It rubs when turned and bent, but never when its just one or the other. I would suggest the 4" if you wish to run 35's. I mean, lift is up and good to go, not enough is a waste of money, because you just want more.

I don't have a clue if they would fit your 4runner, guess you could call NWOR with the number that is on the spring and find out, but to be honest the cost of shipping them to kentucky would probably be over $100, they are fairly heavy.

When I got my front Trail Gear springs they were about $45 to ship from California to Oregon.

I may use the NWOR springs on a Trailer project for my Tacoma...

Yeah I know shipping wouldn't be cheap, but if they are sittig around taking up space and you would give them away then what's $100? I know that won't happen, but it's always worth a try! I plan to pick up some springs this summer and Trail gear is what I'll be ordering.

I installed the Skyjacker 5" kit on my 82 when I first started it's build-up.
It easily clears 35's and came with shims to correct pinion angles as well as a dropped pitman and torque rod riser.

It was a good lift and last forever but it's a bit stiff for rock crawlin.

This photo is with the SJ lift and like 30" (?) tires...


Here's the same lift with 35's...

the rears stuffd into the wells perfectly when compressed.
