Bilstein struts.........Help me!!!!!
Hello everyone!!!! this is my first post for yotatech forum. it has been a very informative forum and i'm loving it!!! anyway, for those suspension expert here i hope you could help me.
I owned a 1998 Toyota Landcruiser Prado or 95 series. I've learned that it has the same suspension configuration with the 1997-2002 4runner in the US. I am currently using Bilstein shocks and struts with OEM toyota spring. in 2 months time i will be installing an arb deluxe bar it will surely drop the front so what is the best option to do without changing the Bilstein? do i have to install a spacer or change the spring? (what spring should i use) i dont do off roading just dont want the front end look sag.
Thanks for helping.....

You're springs will have a higher weight rating, due to the fact the LC is a much heavier vehicle.
Your best bet is to check out and call http://www.sleeoffroad.com/ as they are the landcruiser specialists.
The easiest thing would be to add a spacer up front. But, I had no idea that they had the same front end components as the 4runner.
