heavy duty coils for lifted 95 4runner?

im getting a custom bumper made for my 1995 4runner , and im assuming its going to sag the rear end of the truck . i already have a 4 inch suspension lift installed and could probably jsut adjust the torsion bars to compensate , but then when i finally get a winch , ill be even worse off.
what id like to find out is if there is anyone out there selling heavy duty coils for an already lifted 4runner. ive heard but have not confirmed that the landcrusier coils that downeys sells are just that , and will fit.

can anyone confirm this , and do you know the part numbers and a price.

id rather go that route then have some custom coils made , which i assume will be fairly expensive.

im not sure exactly how much this new rear bumper will weigh or make the rear sag, but if i could find a set of coils to gain me at least an inch or so , id be rather happy.

thanks for any info you can provide.

Uncranking the T-bars is actually your best option as long as you have plenty of clearance for the tires. You'll have a better ride and depending where you are with the crank now, more travel.

Cheapest option would be some spacers for the rear coils.

I agree that spacers would probably be the cheapest route, and then using the T-bars to level out.

I had custom coils wound when I had coils on my 95, they were 300ish from national spring. Other than that see about some 1.5" spacers, or if you can find shorter.

Allpro sells a 5.5" coil. They are for an FJ but fit the runner. They are stiffer since a FJ is heavier, so even with a heavy bumper probally going to get 4.5" - 5" lift out of them still


IMO, do a leaf swap, far superior to the coil spring setup..on road and off road.
