3rd G 4 Runner rear lift w/ LC coils

I did a search and lots of reading, but I'm still a bit confused.

Do I need REAR coils from an fj80 to lift the rear of my 96 4rnr or do I want FRONT springs?

I'm looking to get about 2".... are there better coils to be hunting for?

Thx

You want the front coils, but that will give your about 4inches of lift. If you want 2-3"s go with Old man emu or downey. SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH

yeah the land cruiser coils (fronts work in the rear of 3rd gens, rears work in the rear of 2nd gens) definitely give more than 2" based on what's been posted.

downey coils give about 2.5".

thanks guys. thats what i've been putting together, but I couldn't find a post that said it in black and white.

I have downey coil overs in the front (came from my tacoma) so I need to figure out the rear.
