Either way they're stiffer from what I hear all around. I totally agree when you have heavier loads in the cargo area it levels the vehicle out because the front has the rake. Same goes with the trailer/boat pulling.

I wonder if this T4R forum has many people who use their SUV other than 4 wheeling? I'd like to hear from someone who does not have the factory rake and uses their SUV as a daily driver, grocery hauling, weekend project hauler and family road trips. I don't want my headlights spotting owls in the trees at night when cargo area is full with billie's at set a .85 and FJ springs installed. ;-)
Well you are gaining lift from the FJ coils because of a higher spring rate, you may actually squat less than stock when loaded.
