So I've bought Eibach Pro-Truck Shocks and OME 890 for the rear so far. I was planning to run OME 881 in the front, but problem is they are on back order for who knows how long...
What would be comparable? The Eibach 2.5" ? (E30-82-006-05-20) lift springs?
Eibach Springs Suspension Lift Kit E30-82-006-05-20 | Eibach Canada – Eibach Canada
I realize this is a bit of an odd arrangement of Eibach/ome lol. Originally, I chose the Eibach shocks over 5100s on the premise that they might be valved somewhat softer. Then I chose the OME springs over Eibachs because the rears need spacers to match the front height which I thought was dumb

Well I just put in my 210v's after outboarding the rear shocks (had 891's before). Jesus, it's like a 5"+ rake! FFS! I have a eimkeiths bumper, spare inside and a full f150 fuel tank and it still sits that high. Though I'll be adding a swingout shortly, 3 gas cans, water and a drawer and sleeping platform soon too. But I still don't think it will drop the height that much.
So I don't quite know what spring to run yet again. Either a 891 again (it saged about 2 inches or more), the lc 7.5 wrap 48131-6A570, maybe a 906 or 890?man I wish there were more springs to choose from.

Lotsa folks recommend and run the OME 861s with setups like yours. Landcruiser springs.
Hope this helps.

Now THATis one sexy rig!!!! Sheesh!! Someone call the fire department!!!!!
I run the 861's on my rig and I love them. I've got LC80 Tokico shocks in the rear to pair with them and I think it's an excellent setup. I'll attach a picture for reference. This was immediately after install. Like I finished it up and took this picture.
My 861's replaced my old and worn LC80 springs. They served their purpose and I still have them in my closet, I just wanted something new.

Thanks, just got the 861's on Saturday. I too ran some lc80 kyb shocks, but finally did the outboarding and 10" shocks.
I'm off tomorrow so I'll toss them in. I have a substantial amount of permanent weight in the back of the 4r. So I hope it levels out with a slight rake. I also got a set of new lc80 springs, 48131-6A570, to also see what that does. I might measure out for rear limit straps when I'm off too, if I have time.

The p/n you listed is the same exact one for the LC80 springs I had. I ran them for a little more than 100K miles if memory serves me correctly. They were fine but towards the end they were bouncy and I didn't like that. I think the 861's are nice and stiff and give that solid feeling, at least to me they do. That's why I enjoy them so much.

3rd Gen 4Runner (1996-2002) — American Spring Company Has anyone tried these springs out? Looks like they could be a good option.

it would be good if they provide the spring rates (some look like they're dual rate), wire diameter, and length of each coil. also if there's a LH and RH spring

@ HiluxSurf SSR-G
lay money on generic photo might be worth a call for specs.

I emailed ASC and asked them about the specs for the 4 sets of rear springs they make. Opt Offroad carries that brand, so it may be worth a shot to ask them as well.

What should I get?
What a great thread. Thank you to everyone who’s contributed to it!
I have a stock 98 on 265/70/16. I have a big dometic fridge, 15-20 gallons of gas/water. A 100lbs steel rear hitch carrier. Stock bumpers and no skids. Planning on welding on my own sliders. And adding a hidden wench.
What should I put in the rear end? It’s too saggy now. I’m looking for a 2” lift with 400-500 lbs with no sag.

I ran ome 891's and lc80 kyb gas-a-just shocks and rode fantastic, it does give you a lift so pair it with what ever in the front. I ran that for 3-4 years.
Currently I have around 300-320lbs constant, rear bumper, f150 tank swap w/skid, spare inside.

4Runner 890's squatted 1-1 1/2" with 11 80# bags of Sakrete in cargo area.
890 listed as 3" lift 4-500# extra will put you between 2-3".
