5.5" rear coil springs on 94 4runner?

I have a 1994 4runner, my only suspension modifications are procomp es3000 shocks, low profile bumpstops up front, and 31 10.5 15 bfg at.

I am looking around for a "cheap" suspension lift. I was looking into the 1.5" coil springs when I found 5.5" lift coil springs which I have never seen before and I was wondering what else I would need in the rear to use them, and what would be a "cheap" way to lift the front to make it look even.

thanks,
Greg

I don't think you would since you already have ProComps.
Just give them a call and order what you need/want. Phil (stap22) is a cool guy and really helps everyone. I ordered one of his lift options w/out the BJ spacers because i already had them. Still got a killer deal.

Based on your sig, i'd suggest getting either Old Man Emu or Downey springs for the rear and Ball Joint spacers up front. You might need a panhard drop too.

If you're going from stock to 5.5 coil spring, you BETTER change your shocks too. It'll be pretty short for that 5.5 lift.

What are the 5.5" springs you found?
Getting new shocks may not be necessary since the Procomps you have are already designed for a lift.
