Tundra Coil lift
I know this has been covered a million times but I need some help! About to pull the trigger on some TRD springs to lift my runner. I know everyone says to go with the 4wd TRD springs with the yellow/yellow and blue/yellow color code, but was wondering about 2wd TRD coils. May be able to get these springs for $200 and was wondering what type of lift to expect. Any ideas?

I would it I could! It seems to be easier to find someone handing out stacks of $100 bills than to find someone with 4wd TRD coils! lol May just end up ordering new ones. For some reason I really want to do TRD Tundra coils up front with the Tundra brake swap with LC coils in the back to stay all factory. Going to call it my TundraRunner Cruiser!

DONT BUY ANYTHING BUT YY/YB. Caps necessary? Yes. They might work, but I have first hand experience that you'll be pretty ticked off if you throw them on and they do nothing. Not worth it imo. keep searching.

Well I just bought some y/y y/b today for $110 shipped with the bilsteins. Check out Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market and search for either the strut assembly (a lot more options and cheap) or the coil/spring. There are many options throughout the US and you can find them cheap. Just make sure you call the people and confirm they are y/y y/b.
Mine are coming from Wyoming and I spent two days talking to the people about the coils and what to look for. The girl I first talked to said they were y/b, which I quickly realized she was talking about the shocks. Then the next guy said the dots were grey/grey, which I found out he was talking about the leafs in the back. Finally I walked them through it and ta-da I have tundra coils for $110. It's worth it and you may find a deal better than me.
Where are you located?

Yeah I was surprised and stoked. They were 40 a piece and shipping. Just call around and let them know exactly what you want. Those midwest states are pretty cheap. You should be able to find some. Good luck.

revival
Instead of starting a new thread, I'll try to revive this one. Anybody try using (or know the repercussions of using) the Tundra from an '06 Tundra TRD 4x4?
Thank you-

Most likely a Double Cab. I have read that they might be too stiff because they are made to accomodate the extra weight of the double cabs.

What do you mean they didnt do anything? Are you saying they didnt give you much of a lift?
