4Runner SAW on a Sequoia?

Will my 4Runner SAW lift and be supportive of a Sequoia? I`m just asking because I need a bigger suv and I might as well keep my bling-blings since I have them to lift the new beast.

The Sequoia is built on the Tundra frame I believe so as long as they fit the Tundra, you are set (you may need to have them revalved because the vehicle is quite a bit heavier than the 4runner). I think the top mounting may be different but don't quote me on that.....worst case I think they make an adapter for just that purpose.

make sure you have the 650# or 675# springs as well as the correct valving.

if the 4runner top mounts are the same as the tacoma mounts, they will not directly fit, but i'm sure you can get parts from saw to make 'em fit.

Sequoia= short Tundra frame with same front end and coil-overs in rear for soft ride since it's an SUV.

Spring rate, valving, and top plate will be different. Yes they are very similar, but no, it will not be worth the time and effort to change them.

Sell them, take a small hit on the price, and get some coilovers with the correct springs, valving, and mounting.

Since you will be getting new ones, might as well upgrade to Kings or Donahoes. Much better than SAWS
