Classic Saggy 4Runner
Howdy folks, I'm brand new to all this, so if this is the wrong place to ask this question I appologize.
Anyway, I just bought a 95 Runner 4x4, 166k and it is just beginning to suffer the saggy rear end syndrome. What is the suggested fix besides, new stock springs? I will be using the truck as a daily driver, but with each necessary replacement I want to upgrade with more off road capable parts.
Is there a leaf spring conversion? Is it worth it? Or are coils ok? What brands and sizes do you all suggest? I'm not looking for a lift, just to get it back to normal and make it a little more dirt worthy.
Thanks

If your truck is not lifted and you have no intentions of doing so you can put Performance Products springs on for about $150 bucks. They'll give you a slight lift in the rear over stock but won't sag like the originals. If you plan on lifting your rig or it is lifted then your looking at a whole different ball o'wax.

i did the allpro offroad springs. i think they were $150. They leveled it out perfectly, plus they are heavy duty. I didn't feel any difference in the ride. When i throw stuff back there and tow my jet skis, you can barely tell the sag, its great. you will not be dissapointed with those. keep in mind for a few days, the nose will be riding lower until they set in. depends on how much you drive and throw in the back.
