Anyone else have that issue with the 5100's and FJ Moog's? Front being way higher.. 03 4Runner V8 Limited... It's on the 2nd of the 4 settings so should be at the .85.. expected it to be level but as seen, front is about 1-1.5 inches higher.. if not more.

Yes they do. I have spacers on too which I'm going to remove. Not a lot more but a nice amount.

Front end clearly higher.

Spring perches are installed correctly

Oh wow never thought of that. Going downstairs now to check that because yes... The front are very high... I'll measure too but it was raised like 3-4 inches over the stock height. Had 150k miles on the stock springs so they could be sagging a bit.

From my research I thought it would have sat level.. picked the truck up and was like :lmao: no where close. Springs settled a hair but still way high in the front.

I have the Moog FJ coils and 5100's on the 2nd perch and the front sits WAY higher than the back. Probably 1.5 to 2 inches higher. The back is pretty high due to the air bags but the front lift raised it a huge amount. I'll post pics tonight, looks funny though as the fronts so much higher.

Feel like mine is a baby in comparison. 2003 V8 Limited. 260k kilometers so like 163,000 miles. Drives like the day I bought it and has never given me any issues. Goal is 500,000 kms. Recently replaced the suspension with Billy 5100's and FJ springs but stock suspension was fine, just wanted a...

Hey there, I have a 2003 4Runner V8 Limited with airbags - replaced all shocks with Bilstein 5100's and the front coils with FJ Springs. Put the shocks 1 up from the stock setting so I guess that's the .85 setting. Was trying to get it level, probably should have done the stock/0 setting on...

Quick question hopefully I can get answered here. Guy is selling 2014 TRD shocks and rear springs for cheap, I have a 2003 4Runner LTD V8 with Xreas and rear air bag suspension. I'm assuming since I have bags in the rear I won't need the rear springs correct? And if so, will the front shocks...

That's the right one... Pull black cap off, vacuum line with hose clamp if necessary, stick hose into seafoam, rev engine and go... Don't let it stall, just dip the hose in then remove...

Just seafoamed my 4th gen v8 today... 240k kms (Canada) on it, don't really notice it running different, has been maintained perfectly since day 1 and ran perfect before, runs perfect now... Lots of blue smoke so I guess that means it helped? I used 3/4 of a can and used it in that vacuum...

Thanks for the response. It's the rear wheels that are rubbing and only when the break is applied... I don't think it would be the tires rubbing on the fender or body.

I was contemplating the same thing on my 2003 Limited V8 My conclusion was this... If I needed to replace my tires, I'd do a Suspension lift and go about 3'' and 2'' to level it out (Probably the Bilstein 5100's)... I would do 32' tires and be done with it. Now my current tires have about...

Tried searching as I normally do on this forum but wasn't able to find anything that would be applicable to this. Very odd for this website as I 've been lurking around here for 2+ years and have always had my questions answered without posting! Thanks for that too.. Anyways, I have a 2003...
