Click on the pic, just a lot of coils in a row. Now you can see why everyone is going to get completely different results.

Steve....I just got off the phone with you a couple hours ago about the lift for a Tacoma. At least I think it was you??

Steve - can I suggest resizing to the 700 pixel width (or so)... should make it easier to see the entire pic. Right now I can only see one coil at a time.

Can you swap just the springs on OEM setup?? like say from my 96 to 99's Or would I need shocks too? how much would this raise my rig if I did 1" or so?? Sorry for the newbie questions, I know integras in and out but not 4runners yet...

Just out of curiosity, which coil in that pic is closest to what would be on a 99 2wd 4Runner?

2WD coils are always 1" lower than the same year 4WD. So a 1999 2WD would be close to the 1996 4WD.

The 2002 2WD front coil looks like Aarons pics. No kidding.

Sheesh and just when I try to be a smart ass it backfires, I tell you thats the worst. Have a nice evening Steve!

I guess I did alright picking up a 98. Are the spring rates the same or relatively close on all of them?

LMAO!!!!! Thanks for the laugh

Thanks. Good to know. Aaron, you're a funny guy.

Sloan

so basically that is the real reason why my 2WD 4runner sits so much lower in the front then the back by like a half inch almost?

and by putting i guess 98 4WD coils upfront in them it would level it out some?

Makes me glad I have a '98.. no fat lip bumper either!

So would it really be worth, or even noticable, to put 99 front springs on a 98 (4wd) 4runner. Just curious because I'm about to change my shocks and I'm considering buying a set of 99 coils to install as well. My driving 90% on road and I don't want a 1 1/2-2" lift right now.

Anyone added 99 coils to there 98 before?

sschaefer3

Unless the springs are shot, I would not bother.

Lance

I changed out my 98 coil springs to 99 coil springs and really didn't notice a difference. I had to measure to see any change. I did remove the rear only after month because the Toyota coil springs couldn't handle the weight of camping gear so I went to OME 906.
The rears are for sale and a good price if you're interested in the rear only.
