Ordered Eibach springs today!
Sorry had to share with somebody that might understand my excitement. This is the last piece of my lift that I've put together.

Now its just waiting not so patiently for the FedEx man to show up. Then there's all the other stuff I need to buy before I do the install.

But for now, I'll just be excited.

Congrats. Just curious, what kind of lift do they give? What made you go with them? Close to getting a lift myself so I am trying absorb any knowledge of 4runner suspension I can. What are you pairing them with?

Pairing them with the adjustable Billstein 5100s for the first gen tundra. They're 3 inch springs.

In the back I'm going with land cruiser springs. I've got 2 sets so I'll decide which height I like and go with them.

If you need info on lifts, theres a great write up in the info sticky.

If I were to do it again, I would go with those exact lift components. My OME lift is great but not incredible. I bet you'll enjoy it!

This is the same thing I'm considering. Which number wrap LC coils are you using? I'm going to pair this with the Sonoran Steel Build it Yourself lift kit so I've got the DD, Adjustable PH, and other goodies. I'm interested in seeing how it looks once your done. Cheers

I've actually got 2 sets of LC springs. One set is from an LX 450 (8.5 wrap i think) and a set of 8 wraps. I think I'm gonna use the LX springs initially. If its too tall I'll try the 8 wraps.

I've still gotta buy a diff drop, maybe a pan hard drop. I'm also going to do LBJs and tie rods while the front is taken apart. It probably won't all go on until after January (after hunting season)

I'm going to do the same thing with my LBJs and OTREs. Probably adding light racing UCAs as well. I've got just under 200k on the original front suspension, so I'm going to rebuild the front to give it some freshness. Since it'll be all torn apart I figure why not. If its worth doing, might as well do it right once!

I feel like I won the lottery!!

Just did this lift myself this week. I utilized a 1/4 poly spacer on the DS and my hub to fenders are identical on both sides. Install was smooth with no bottle jack trickery required and no spindle contact.
