Hey everyone I was at a parts yard today and i saw some coil springs i was thinking of getting for my 1991 4runner. I found lots of springs that would fit, but there was one pair that was a bit thicker then the rest. I was wondering if the V6 had thicker coils then the 22re. And if so will they fit the 22re. I dont know if it matters but the thick ones had blue marks and the thinner ones had yellow markings.

anyone?

where they front or rear if they were front then yes the v6 would have bigger coils to hold the extra weight of the v6 they should be about the same size

If were talking coil springs? The 86-95 trucks had torsion bars, and as far as I know there is no difference in coil springs from 22re/v6 for the rear

There are heavy duty coils available thru the aftermarket (I have a set, they are great), could be a set of those. . .

Maybe let us know the height and we can compare. also add if they are sprung or unsprung.

i could measure my ome 900 sprung and my stocks unsprung for references.

and hrm, your 91 4runner has leafs in the back not coils dosen't it?

All 2nd gen (1990-95) 4Runners rolled out of the factory on coil springs. V6 and 4cyls had the same rear coils. Springs are pretty carefully tuned to the weights of vehicles, so I wouldnt think you'd get a very good ride out of any old random set of springs.

My 91 has torsion bars and rear coils. I know the stock coils are 13" i have not measured the blue ones but they are the same length as the yellow ones when u set them next to each other they are just thicker in diameter.

Chances are that the stock 4runner coils are just as sagged as yours. If the thicker ones fit, it's probably aftermarket....could be Downey's or OMU.
