Sequoia rear springs on a gen3 runner

Hi, I tried to find this and I'm going to compare the rear springs from an 02 sr5 2wd v8 sequoia to my 98 oems, but if anyone has any experience or input I welcome that. Before I pull the springs. Also curious about the cv's from an 07 4wd Trd taco fitting a gen3 4Runner. Both have 27 splines and appear similar in length and diameter. Again I'm going to compare the 2 and see. Thanks in advance, I've learned so much from this and similar forums, thanks

I just got them today. They're bigger, roughly same height as a pair of 99 tall. An inch or more wider in diameter. I said screw the cv s. They're easy to get and these looked like a hassle

I plan to install in near future. I'll compare them to my rough country springs then, but they look simular on truck(same #of wraps, simular width, thickness of coil wire. So I hope, but now I wait for my new5100's Then I'll start to really get at this

I know right, but it is hard to get tape in there. So I'm going on eyeball and it looks about the same as the rough countrys in the back now.

Hi, so I pulled it all apart, took measurements and did a test fit. No way Jose will it fit. The top perch is 6&7/8, which is 3/8 to much. So I'm keeping rough country springs and I put 5100's on the rear, bid difference. Thanks y'all, I wish it would have worked
