I want to start this question of by stating that, yes I searched and didn't come up with anything that really fit my question...

So, I have a 2nd gen with a 4inch superlift kit on the front.. some of the work on rear of this truck was done by the pervious owner, and I'm assuming that the rear coils are Downey because they are have that polished black look that I've seen in some photos... now my runner, even with whatever coils they are, is starting to sag,



and the sag on the passengers sides is about an 0.8" lower then the drivers ... so the back is always a little tilted to the right. So my question is, what type of rear setup should I use to flatten out the level of my truck? keeping in mind the 4inch front lift, cause it seems that the downey's that most people talk about only offer 1.5" of lift and that wouldn't br enough.

or maybe I just don't know what I'm talking about

Thanks

 

Downeys generally sag so I wouldn't buy those...try allpro

 

You could add Daystar or AllPro 2 1/2" spacers together with the Downey 1 1/2" lift springs to get 4" of lift. I had that setup when I had my 95 4Runner. The ride was kinda tipsy so I changed the spacer from AllPro to Daystar 1 1/4" spacers. Hope that helps.

 

How about this thread:

I would use some OME coils to get the rear up.

If all you have is coils, I highly doubt they are Downey since they have no 4" coil for that application.

I have never heard of Downeys being notorious for sagging.

 

I use a pair of LC 80 series coils in the back. 50$! They give me a 4-5 inches of lift. Hard to determine since my rear was agging badly also.

 

Here you go: http://www.allprooffroad.com/coilrear.html

 

looks like you either have a superlift or PC (more likely) rear lift kit. from the side, it looks like you have the drop down brackets for the control arms. you're leaning to the passenger side before the gas tank is located on the driver side. and your sagging coils needs to replaced.

i would recommend a set of replacement coils. allpro has a 1.5" coil, performance accessories sells a 1.5", and ome sells a hd. i had a set of downey's on my 3rd gen and liked them alot. check this link out.

 

here is what one of the coils looks like



note the black

so I guess I'll check out what you guys have listed..
If I get 5" coils will I need new shocks and limiting straps?

thanks
