looking for DOWNEY dealer, need front coilovers and 2" rear springs

i have been looking into lifts since i bought my 4runner last month, and have decided on the downey coil over for the front and the downey 2" springs for the rear. i am a broke-ass college student (just like several of you are) and am trying to find a place to order these and save a few bucks.

if anyone has these and wouldn't mind sharing how much you paid and where you got them i would really appreciate it. or if you know of a dealer that can sell them at a good price, that would help out also!

thanks for any info!!!

I think you have to order them direct from Downey, I don't know for sure.

Hi there, I am a Downey dealer, however, as an FYI the Downey coil overs are MORE expensive than the SAWs....if you would like...check out my website and give me a call...I can talk to you about it if you would like :^)

Also, the Downey coilovers are not rebuildable...once they are shot...that is it, you need new shocks

Shameless plug here...

I buy parts from Mike, he's a good shiznit (I'm slowly learning the lingo of the young and hip) and has good prices. Customer service is .

Got it, I was working on the reply when I logged onto the boards again tonite.

To stay on this topic, moneynuts (that's a good one, lmao), I think you would really like the SAW / Downey combination. Get the Tundra valved SAW's and match up your Downey's with Bilsteins. Just my opinion, but I really like mine. Rides WAY better than stock and the other suspension I had.
