I will be getting a bumper so I guess I could wait and see how it is with that.

Mine were not assembled incorrectly - I bought them from Toytec already assembled and verified that they were correct. I don’t know why I had so much lift if other people aren’t having that problem. I still think 620lb is so stiff for a stock 4Runner since the 550lb springs I have now ride SO much better.
I no longer have them to measure but the only thing I can figure
if 3.5”+ lift is not normal with these springs is that the spring seat C-ring groove was not in the correct location, which could have the same effect as putting the spring seat in too high a groove.
I will say that having worked in the automotive suspension industry for a couple of years, a shock tube with a slightly out of spec spring seat groove making it out of Eibach’s plant is not impossible. If Toytec isn’t using sophisticated, high-volume production QC equipment (and I wouldn’t expect them to) then it would be totally possible for the shock and spring to go together fairly normally and Toytec wouldn’t have been able to detect it.
For the record, Toytec was great to deal with and I want to say that if the above is true, it is in no way Toytec’s fault.
