Either way, blocks are FINE.

 

Yeah go with blocks. As a matter of fact double some up on each other, gives it a more solid feel...

 

I think for street driving they would be. but 2 diff height blocks? Not so sure. The zuk mod would get the springs back to equal travel, more payload, and a smooth ride. Isn't that part of the reason 2nd gen 4Runners had a coil over suspension?

 

Based on that post, and the yellow quote in your sig, I think I'll refrain from accepting any of your input on the topic.

 

I don't want you taking my input without paying so thank you!

Lol, stupid, the yellow means nothing without the white.

I don't know, do you? Think about it, novel idea I know.

HINT: the white is a clause

 

edited bc I am done with this thread, we aren't talking about blocks anymore, sorry elblako for the threadjack.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

 

Lol, sounds like a relative thing, i.e. opinion, I will admit though communication is a two way street.

 

lol

I've run 2" blocks, gone up into 5000 RPM's for short periods. They haven't come off. Axle wrap is fine. Of course I have 35's and with 4.10s... apparently my truck shouldn't even move.

 

Thats not factory dog. Sorry I couldn't help myself.

 

it feels so right though

 

wow drama on here, lol

next question how do i get rid of my blocks, just order some new leaf springs and what else

 

My 4Runner had 3" blocks in the rear when I got it, and I hated the axle wrap. I removed them and built a spring pack out of two to suit my needs. I haul my recovery gear, tools, full size spare, and air tank in the cargo area. It sits level in the rear now. My original spring pack had 3 leafs, now it has 4 plus the overload.

 

i have to get a pic of it, this truck has 4in blocks and 2 add a leafs on each side lol. i got it this way.. i want to go to just springs and add a bj spacer to the front to take some tension off the tbars to try to get alittle more flex and would like to keep it the way it sits with a 5in lift

 

You could get a set of lift springs and shackles. Or go with 63" Chevy springs and relocate the shackles. Plenty of write-ups on either setup here.

 

The Zuk mod looks like a good option. Also I'll throw out there that my air shocks work good too. It will take a bit of research to find the right length and ends to fit your truck though.

 

I was actually looking at some Gabriel air shocks for my truck, to lift it a little and to keep it from squatting so bad when I load my 4wheeler in the back. Would that be ok to do or not?
Sorry to thread jack.

 

Sure, the nice thing about them is the adjustablity. More weight, just add more air pressure. The way they come with the air line shared between the left and right side (cross linked) makes them work good in flexing situations on the trail too. As one tire is stuffed up the other is pushed down.
