Anyone know if Amazon carries the OME kit? - Toyota 4Runner Forum

Hey guys, I see that we can buy the kit from other vendors but does anyone know if Amazon sells the preassembled kit that vendors sell for the front and back of the 3rd Gen? I only ask because I can get some Cashback right now through them so thought I'd take advantage.

if you buy each part individually probably, but i'm not sure. i'm buying half of mine from o'reillys and half from srq because i have a buddy who can get me a killer discount there.

Wheeler's offroad has the best deal and can assemble the front if you want. Also they pay the sales tax if you create an account.

I recommend saving some money and getting OEM 80 Series LC rear shocks. They're super smooth, have lots of travel, and only cost $50 a piece.

good to know, how much lift would the LC ones give over stock, and compared to Bilstein 5100s?

I'm going with these next. I got a "deal" on an OME Nitrocharger kit, and I just don't like it. Way too stiff in the rear, and I'm running stock weight springs. I loved the cushy ride of my other 3rd Gen with a 1.5 spacer lift on stock rear springs and these LC80 rear shocks.

Shocks don't provide lift.
Springs could.

sorry, i meant what the difference in compression would be: eg. how far they can extend

So you're suggesting getting the frontand back seperate from the kit and just buying the rear springs from the dealership instead?

Jross20 put together a great excel spread sheet showing front and rear shocks compressed and extended lengths with part numbers. Take a look: Jross's Shock List
