I just bought a 1997 4Runner, it currently has Bilstein shocks in all around. The fronts were replaced not all that long ago, and the rears are getting older. The truck currently has 1" pp springs in it, and I am going to change those out for the OEM lift fairly soon. What I was wondering was, will the front Bilstien shocks desidned for a 4Runner be long enough to handle the tundra springs, or are they going to affect my droop... Or am I best to forget using them and get all the Tokico stuff???

Thanks guys!!
Bob

 

bob, i have a set of rear tokico shocks (blue) for sale. see my thread in the Marketplace for pics, etc. I took them off my '02 tacoma recently and they have 16k miles on them.

 

How do you like the 1" PP coils/Bilstein shocks setup? I am really contemplating this vs. the OME lift kit.

 

I have NON-trd tundra coils + daystar 2.25" lift with bilstein HD's and love em. I will never look back.

 

louisdle, I dont know how I like the PP springs yet... I actually dont get the truck for 5 more days.... I will have a used set for sale if interested

Thanks dfireballd, I think if I keep the Bilsteins in the front, I will match with the 1995 rear LC Bilsteins too.....

2wheelBLACKOUT, thanks for the info too.... I think I will keep them and see how they are in the front.....

 

How do you like the 1" PP springs and bilstein combo? I am deciding between this set up and the OME setup all around.

 

I have the same thing but with the 1.25 daystar top spacer. The ride quality is great.

 

pp springs still for sale?
im intrested if they are.

 

louis,

search and you will find alot of guys have this combination.

The sptings in the rear were sagged badly, and the shocks were gone too... so my oppinion is not a good one to trust!

The PP springs were not in good enough condition to sell... I ended up throwing them in the scrap medal bin.... sorry guys

 

Also too so you all know... I ended up with 4 new Tokicos.....
