'05+ TRD Tacoma shocks and springs on '99 4runner?

allright, i've searched and searched with no conclusive answer.



Can I install these TRD Bilstein off-road Tacoma shocks on the front of my '99 4runner?

Also, with the proper springs (thinking OME 890s), will these rear shocks from an '05 TRD Bilstein off-road Tacoma work? Will everything be even with the front tacoma springs and the rear OMEs?




I want the combination of Tundra TRDs and OME 890s for my lift and new shocks as well. I am simply researching other less expensive options. I want my 4runner to look like Gerdo's:


thanks for your input.

At least guess by looking at the pics if the design of the suspension looks like it might work...or post a witty insult. whichever strikes you.

you could use the top spring perches from the 99 ontop of the 05 strut to match up the stud holes....maybe. i also have been thinking of this type of mod.

i have 2010 taco springs on the front of my 98 limited.I used the 4runners shock and top plate.It had ome shocks on it when I got it. Works great and about 1.5 inch of lift,and a little smoother ride then the ome springs that were on it. The taco front shocks are too long. Not sure about rear shocks but worth checking into.
