1996 T100 front end sag

My T100 sags in the front and the new tires hit the inside fender wall when I hit a large enough bump. Doe's anyone know of an air shock or air bag for the front suspension? 1996 2 wd 3.4L. Thanks in advance for any help on this!

Are these stock tire size or bigger? You could crank up the torsion bars a little...just make sure you take the weight off of them before you crank them or you'll be buying new bolts when they snap.

Thanks for the reply. They are the stock size and a little larger than the old ones. I'll do the torsion bar and a set of Bilsteins and see what clearance I can get.

A little larger? What is the exact specs on the tires?

Post up some piccies of the front end view so I can see exactly how much clearance you have. What is the measurement from the ground to the top of the wheel well (all four corners, please)?

Air shocks for the front and rear of Toyota trucks

AIR SHOCKS AND COIL OVER SHOCKS FOR TOYOTA.

If you have enough clearance to mount the shocks and run air lines to the them, we can make air shocks for the front end. Most air shocks require 3" of clearance. Most Toyotas have this much clearance but you will want to double check. We also supply air shocks for all rear applications.

Another option is coil over shocks for front and rear. These shocks can add additional boost of 400 - 1100 pounds of boost per pair, Coil over shocks come with a 2" or 3" O.D. spring.

We custom manufacture coil and leaf springs either stock or custom.
Additionally we can rebuild your steering gears and pumps.

My company is A-1 Shock Absorber Co., Inc., established in 1936.
Contact me at mark@shocks2springs.com or 800-344-1966 or 970-513-8283.
