What 2nd Gen rear springs are these?

Just picked up a 95 4Runner with some sort of lift already on it. The front has ball joint spacers, and probably a torsion bar crank. No clue what springs, but it is TALL in the rear.

Can anyone identify these springs please? Need help deciding what springs to change to. I want it about 2" lower.

Those are 33 BFGs in the pic for reference. Truck is too tall for my liking.

Thanks for any help guys!

Can’t say for sure but I’d guess they’re 4” lift springs. Here’s a pic of old stockers next to old 3” inch springs. Stocks are 13.5” and 3 inchers 16.75”.

Those look similar to the fjz80 Land Cruiser coils. From my understanding they're about 3" more than stock 4R coils. DM Sent.

your truck sits about the same height mine came out after adding FZJ80 coils to the back. Is there any paint stripes (red/blue or something) on the top or bottom of the coils?
do you have any plans to lower the front? from your picture it looks pretty well balanced.
you could try cutting the coils a little bit at a time. Not sure you can find two inch lift coils any more.

good luck
