OME 891 or 906 springs?
Looks like I am finally getting my small lift. I do have a question for anyone who my know.
What is the differience between the OME 906 rear coils anf the OME 891 rear coils?? I know that the 906 is designed for the 4runner but how much lift will it provide? Is anyone running the 906s? What one will be better on road? What one would be better offroad? what one would yeald the most articulation paired with the N86 shocks?
or would ya'll recomend the Downey HD with Bilstine HD rears?
I am getting SAWs for the front.
Thanks in advance.

the 891 was designed for the Prado.
the 906 was designed for the 4Runner.
the 891 is very stiff/harsh for the 4Runner without a couple hundred pounds back there.
the 906 is supposed to be perfect for the 4Runner.
the 891 yields anywhere from 3-3.25" lift on a 4Runner.
the 906 yields about 2-2.25" lift on a 4Runner.
i do not know anyone with 906s, i got all this info from talking directly to ARB. they are very helpful.

I got the 906's on my 4Runner, along with the 881's up front. The truck sits almost level, with a slight rake towards the front. Overall I'm really happy with them. I am running HD Bilstiens along with the OME springs. I don't tow or carry a large load, but the overall ride is pretty comparable to stock. I really think the truck looks much nicer 2" taller and my 265/75R16's fill the wells nicely. Here's a pic I took shortly after the install of the front springs. I was on a slight incline so the front actually looks a little taller, but it's not.

I have a 2nd Gen and a local shop said they had OME's for $74 each. Do I need to make sure that they are model 891?
Also, I realize others have paid a little less than that - can anyone send me a link to an online store where I might be able to pick them up?
Thanks

I can't endorse a shop anymore.
