Shocks: If most of your driving is onroad then consider the Monroe Sensatrac's...they are much cheaper than Bilstiens/OME's and also have a lifetime warranty.

Springs: Try & find them at a junk yard, or get them from an online Yota parts dealer like toyotaparts4u.com, or get the Performance Products springs at http://www.performanceproducts4truck...h+Lift+Springs

But i just wanted to make sure i need the 2wd drive shocks since the springs will be from a 4wd 4runner. thanks
