Alright, I have on 04 SR5 Runner and the suspension components are complete garbage. The truck is originally from the NE, so I'm assuming the harsh weather has destroyed the bushings and overall ride.
I've replaced the shocks with 5100 all around and toytec springs in the front and rear. That has helped a bit, but my steering and ride is still extremely squirrley. If I hit a minor or major bump, the truck hops around and is extremely unstable. If there's any major divot in the road, the truck pulls that way.
What I am asking, is if anyone has had these issues and if so, what have you replaced that seems to work? If I were to rebuild/replace suspension parts, what would you recommend?
I want to replace business where needed, but also upgrade suspension parts that would be deemed worth and worth it down the road. All suggestions and recommendations are welcome! Thanks everyone!

I currently run 5100+ Dobinsons 2.5" Up front and it bounces like you are talking about, I have honestly put this down to the bilstein coils just being stiff from my experience and otehrs as well. Ive replaced UCA, sway links, sway bar mounting bushings, but i think its just the nature of the shocks. Going to replace to my dobinsons struts & new LCA with new bushings/ ball joints as well
