Questions about the toytec 3" lift kit with front and rear OME coils

[the_real_gus_bus]

I own a 1999 limited 2wd 4runner. So I found this lift (3" Lift Kit with front and rear OME coils) and I was planning on running the 881 front coil springs. The website says that you do NOT need to add in new front shocks, so I was wondering if adding in new longer coils (the 881's) would hurt the factory shocks? And does this lift come with the radiator drop bracket and the steering column extension piece? I know there is a extensive amount of information on the forum about lifting, but despite all my searches, these questions remained unanswered. So I apologize in advance if they've already been posted!

Radiator drop bracket only necessary with body lifts. If you don't add the topout spacer to the 881 coils you will NOT get 3" of lift in the front. It will be closer to 2". I have the 881/890 combo and I can tell you that I'm raked with 3" in the rear and a little less than that in the front.

Shocks - I would buy the shocks along with the coils. They will improve the ride greatly and they're not that much more money.

You also don't need to do anything to your steering column at all.. you have the exact lift that I've put about 15k miles on and I don't have the drop bracket and I've never touched the steering column, never had any problems.

You're 2WD, so don't worry about diff drop... Radiator brackets and steering extension are for body lifts, so again don't worry about it. I agree on changing the shocks with the stiffer springs there is no advantage to going cheap on a lift. And FYI you may want to get some rear trim packers I have the same spring combo and my rig leaned bad to the left rear before my 4WD conversion... ARB was thinking it had to do with it being 2WD and weighing less up front
