'96 to '97 FZJ are 8 wrap
'91 to '92 FJ are 8 wrap but taller than the '93 to '94 and '96 to '97
LX coils are somewhat of a mistery still

Bottom line: '95 coils yeild the least lift out of all the LC coils.

Is that somewhat right?

Thanks

IIRC, you'll want the spring w/ no more than 8 wraps and are about 19" in length. Anything taller, you don't want.

Also, when you buy a pair, one spring should be slightly taller than the other side. This spring is for the side w/ the gas tank.

Next up is shocks. OME, or the stock FZJ in the rear?
