I plan on using my tax refund to replace my sagging coils. I have done some searching and have come up 5 different brands. They are:
1. OME at $124 from 4x4 connection
2. Eibach at $ 134.25 from Autocarparts.com
3. Unknown brand $149 from Allpro.com
4. Performance Products at $199
5. Downey at $149 Don't know where to buy from, web site no help

Which should I go with, I know this subject has been used to death, but help anyway, Ok. Thanks in advance.

 

All I can say is I am very happy with my Downey HD's.
No sag since they were put on spring of '99.

To buy them, you can contact Mike on the forum here.
www.xtremeoff-road.com

Also you can order them direct from Downey's tele #.

Also www.central4wd.com can order them.
That is how I got mine.

 

I just bought some Downeys. They seem like a proven choice.

 

Downey or OME seem to be the big two.
I'll throw another vote in for Downey.

 

PP's are Eibach I think. I've had mine for a good 5 years +

 

PP's are H&R (could have been Eibach 5 years ago though) spring out of Germany... Unfortunately, H&R does not sell this particular spring anywhere else (that I can find) except Performance Products. Tire Rack sells H&R parts, maybe they can get them at a cheaper price than PP. H&R part number is 109925, front and rear.

I had the PP springs, they weren't quite supple enough for my tastes, but for overall street use, I thought they were much much better than the stock springs.

Downey on mine for off-road, but OME is supposed to make a good product as well...

Mike

EDIT: I think you can also get the OME's a little cheaper than that. Xtreme Off Road Mike also sells OME.

 

for clarification the site is www.xtremeoff-road.com

 

Ooooooooooooops

I sometimes put the "e" in front of the "x" when there should be none.

All corrected.

 

H&R's QC is much better than Eibach's.
Why not contact them and see who else sells their springs.

I hate to do biz with PP. YMMV

 

Ya' know, I went back and read the original post, etc. and I meant to ask, what knid of driving do you do with your 4Runner? I found this to be a very important question for myself when I started rebuilding my wasted suspension.

Mike

 

Go with the HD Downeys....I think you will be very pleased with them!!! If you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to ask!!!

Mike

 

Mike,

I wrote you an e-mail via your biz. Which shocks do you recommend? I'm debating Bilstein and Edelbrock IAS. I do a lot of street driving and ride comfort is a consideration. Also, which steering stabilizer do you carry/recommend?

 

btt.

I'll be making my purchase in the next few days so need some input guys
