3RD GEN "1997"


I NEED A LITTLE MORE LIFT AND A FRIEND IS WILLING TO GIVE ME HIS 2009 TACOMA FRONT SPRINGS, WILL THIS WORK AND GIVE LIFT?


THIS MAY BE A DUMB QUESTION HOWEVER I FIGURED IT MIGHT FIT SINCE TOYTECS PAGE SAYS
Eibach front coil spring kit (set of 2) for:
95-04 Tacoma = 3" lift
96-02 4Runner 3" lift
05-10 Tacoma 03-10 4Runner and FJ 1.6" lift

 

Cut and dry version, not really. It would take some serious modification to make it work. The second gen uses torsion bars whereas the 3rd gens(runners/tacos) use a rack pinion steering set-up. Now a puck lift may fit the coils in the back of a 2nd gen runner from a taco, trying that set up with a 4'' lift right now. Not sure about the coil buckets being the same dimensions though

 

you are correct


my title is wrong tho i meant 3rd gen 1997.... im not that much of a noob, come on

 

anyone???? i cant find anything anyone.. seen tundra trds but not newer tacomas

this shows same spring fitting all..

yes, it will fit. someone has used a 4th gen 4Runner front coils in a 3rd gen 4Runner front. it's bit stiffer compared to the coils fro the 3rd gen 4Runner because the 4th gen is a bit heavier than the 3rd gen

 

ok thankks ill give it a try. any idea of how much lift (i have the 3rz)

 

sorry, can't remember

 

installed today and it gave me 2-2.5in of lift. i also have 1.5in thick spacer on oem shocks. had to grind the uca

 

Were they stock 4th gen front coils?

 

they were stock TRD. however i think one side might be higher then the other by half inch or less..... i remember reading that some coils have a left and right.. doesnt bother me as long as it alignment isn't effected much
