Coil springs
Yo Yotapeeps!
So I finally swapped out my old saggy springs for some new Downey HD's! That was a super easy job! Didnt even need a coil compressor.
Everything went smoothly. My only mistake is that I didnt buy new spring sets. The two rubber thingys that sit on top of the springs and the bottom.
Mine were all old and dry rotted. Anybody know where I can order new ones?
I'm not looking for any more lift. I have seen some that come in a thicker design but I'm just looking for stock ones. I hate to do things twice but as easy as that was it wont be such a big deal.
Thanks.
P.S.
Man do I NOT miss that saggy booty!!!

stock coil seats
I dont think Downey sells the stock ones that I want. I do know that they sell a set that comes with some other stuff but gives the four Runner a lift at the same time. I dont want to go any higher than it already is.
Just looking for stock replacements to give the new springs something comfy to sit on.
Thanks Scuba.

So I took Scuba's advise and I gave my local Toyota dealer a call and they did say they can get them for me. Its 32.78 for the upper and 22.84 for the bottom one. So that all would come out to around 111.00 bucks for all four of them.
GEESH!!!
Now I'm debating if I should even get them
Hmmmmm??
I think I can do without for a little bit. The ones I have on the Runner now arent to bad.

Are these rubber pieces really necessary? Mine are completly shot now with 5" springs and lots of wheelin and whats left of them dont really even sit in their spots like they should. Anyone have opinions of just running without em??? I dont see any negative drawbacks besides slightly more chafing from metal to metal contact when flexing but that would take a LONG time to actually wear anything badly.
