Napa Rear lift coils :) 69$

Hey guys just thought ide Share some info. I ordered a set of Napa Precision Engineerd coils. (part # 277-5307) Got them on sale for 69$ regular 81$. Took 3 weeks to come in. Just thought ide post this to show there is another option from the FJ coils. About a 2-3" lift over stock, So with the regular 4runner sag it should deffintly level out any sagging runner. Ill post a pic of them in. If the back end is to high i got a set of 1.5" BJ spacers sitting at home.

PICS:

This is thinking out of the box, but do you think that NAPA would also have the springs/replacements for a Tacoma?

Wow those OME's look awesome. Are they way stiffer, or still pretty comfortable?

They are quite a bit stiffer, but I have a front tube bumper with a winch coming soon. I also to my 3,000 lb camper so I have eliminated the rear sag when towing. They are stiffer like I said, but still ride great - better than stock for sure.

yupp we looked them up by size, And they do have replacement coils for tacoma's. We looked up the stock dimensions and found an exact match 2.8" longer and a much stiffer spring rate ( i have a dirt bike rack )

Hrmmm I wonder what the price difference is compared to NAPA versus what people sell them used for? I mean hell they are cheap enough as is but if I can get them for relatively the same price new NAPA has my wallet!

to be honest they look pretty weak compared to the OME springs, not that I expected anything less from Napa. I'm glad you're happy with the ride quality.

So would you say this is the way to go to get the back lifted back up or no? I have to get some springs for mine as mine is very saggy.

If they are a bit saggy now, they will almost certainly get more saggy in the coming weeks as they settle in. Keep us posted and if you get time maybe put up some pics.
