Confirmed- 5th Gen TRDP rear suspension for 3rd gen

Hey guys thought I would post this incase anyone ever had access to these suspension parts but weren't sure if they fit. So I have a friend that just got Icon on his 2016 TRD Pro and he had no use for his stock suspension, which means I could use whatever worked.

First of all, the struts are wayyy too long and there is no possible way they would fit. Not sure about removing the spring and installing it into a shorter strut, maybe I'll try that later.

The rear coils are color coded pink/orange, however there is no indication of driver or passenger side that I could tell so I just eyeballed it by which one was slightly taller. Also, these coils are thicker than OEM, and it has a slightly larger diameter of about 1/4", nothing to screw anything up though. Because of this slight increase in diameter the bumpstop cone kinda moves around upon install unlike in the OEM coil, but it will still remain seated in the correct spot once the install is done.

As for the rear shocks, they are the Bilsteins with an external reservoir (part #: PTR13-89150-RR and PTR13-89150-LR). Yes, they are about 3ish inches longer than stock suspension so if you're wheeling hard the coils will fall out if you flex too much, so I probably need to get some longer bumpstops or limit straps. The shock will bolt right up to the factory brackets you may just have to compress the shock a little bit to get it on the lower stud.

Reservoirs are kinda annoying me at the moment because I need to come up with a good way to mount them to the frame rail. They are currently clamped on and ziptied on to the frame lol

Have done no wheeling, but the rear end is a lot firmer and less rowdy on the road. Takes speed bumps like a fricken champ.

This lifted my 4runner about an inch in the rear, it used to sit slightly sagged, but now it has just a slight rake in its stance (kinda hard to tell I think my camera was slightly slanted...). 22" hub to fender on both sides with 265/75s.

Front Springs

If you don't end up using the front Springs I am interested in purchasing them to use with 2013 rear FJ Cruiser springs, I haven't been able to find a front set yet. I'm in NE Georgia so it would be a couple hours across to there. Just PM me if this becomes an option.
Thanks

Alright sounds good. Im probably gonna disassemble my front struts sometime to check the similarity between the springs but if they dont look like they would fit I will let you know.

The TRDP front springs will match the Bilstein 6112 shocks, not smaller diameter shocks.

Oh

I'm 3rd gen too. Didn't realize they were wider than regular springs from other 4runner, Tacoma and FJ springs. If they wont work for you then they wont work for me either.
Thanks, Though

So paired up to the 6112 shocks, how much lift would that combo give over stock?

No idea about lift but pretty sure you can't buy just the 6112 struts without the springs as a kit

but you can use the non-TRDP 4Runner front springs with the Bilstein 5100 shocks for the 1996-2002 4Runner.

OP,

Did you measure the extended and compressed length of the rear socks?
is the 22" measured from hub center?

Thanks!

no idea, but as mentioned before, the 6112 shocks come with their own springs.

I guess all of the 5th gen models use the Orange/Pink rear coils- I lifted my friends '14 SR5, and they were Orange/Pink as well.
I agree that the 5th gen 4Runner coils are CLUTCH on a 3rd gen. Running them with stock '01 Tokico shocks on my '97, and they're AWESOME.

I did not physically measure the extended or compressed lengths of the shocks, however upon digging around on the Internet I found the OEM rear shock has an extended length of 20.8" and compressed length of 13". Like I said, the Bilsteins are about 3" longer so there's going to be a lot of droop on the trails. Not sure how this will effect being able to stuff my wheel into the wheel well either.

And yes 22" from the center of the hub to the bottom of the fender both sides.

@Tyler James Inc I agree these coils and shocks ride super nice on the road, coils aren't hard to find either!

Hey guys,

What coil springs are you running up front to pair with the 5th gen rears?

Thanks,
Dan

Stock '01 fronts on the '97 above.
What are you looking for? The 5th gen rears work great to get rid of the rear sag, and provide a more balanced ride with the stock front.
