hahahahaha i agree it looks stupid


oh... sorry.. uh good luck

 

Ok wait a minute.....did you put the stut cups on upside down?
That is a common mistake and could be why you got so much lift on the front only.
Take a pic of the front struts and post those.

 

You should have done the Tundra/OME lift....

 

THE FRONT



THE REAR

 

Yes, I wonder the same. The cup holds the lower part on the front coil/spring (not in you picture)
the silver part on this picture from jalaper

 

It actually looks like it was sagging before the lift. I would call toytec and get a refund on the rear spacers and toss that money towards the OME's. I'm not sure why everyone is saying you should of done the trd/tundra lift, it would not of helped you one bit in the rear.

I've got a set of 01 rear coils that I would be happy to send you if you paid shipping, but I think you have a highlander edition so that would not help you that much.

Also what was your pre and post measurement in the front?

 

uhhhh,

1. the TRD Tundra Lift is what you should have done in the front.

2. you should have gotten some used 7-wrap FZJ80 Land Cruiser front coils and put them in the rear of your runner. they'd give you about 3" of rear lift.

or, as an alternative, you can do some nice Downey 3.5/2.5 coils for a 2.5" rear lift or some OME 891's. however, both of those will sag over time. the FZJ coils are used and have already sagged as much as they ever will.

do it right. get your money back for the rear that isn't working for you and get some decent coils under there.

 

thanks, Vegas , I am like you, Now since I review these pictures, the rear does have a slight sag to begin with, I guess heavy towing plus miles of the 4runner, I mean I have had it since 2000!!

I am going to throw the 890's on the rear when they get here. just to see what it does

I am On my way to the shop, to get my 295/75/16 on!

post pics ASAP!

 

Gonna side with bamachem on fj80 coils, he has a good point. If the ome's do not work out I would go that route because they will have already settled/sagged. I hope the 890's will get you close.

 

Those are pictures of the top of the strut....I mean where the strut cup sits on the shock....you can put it on upside down and a few people have done that and it looks alot like what yours does. Turn the wheel all the way to one side and take a pic of the entire front shock from top to bottom.

 

They are on there correctly, I checked,

But hey heres some news, they tires rubbed the A- Arm, so I just ordered
Some Mickey Thompson Classic lock so I ll have pics next week along with
the coils!

 

Wow, then the springs sagged 2" alone....that would be a first.

 

that rear spacer lift doesn't yield 2.5 inches on used springs. that compounded with a bigger lift in the front at 3" only makes things worse.

 

Thanks again for all the input guys, I'll keep you posted!
