I had similar goals as you...Check out my setup. I am happy with it. Bilstein 6112s & 5100 / 99 Talls for the Rear in the Mail - Question

16mog toeing sounds about right. The car is definitely under powered especially when towing. I tow a lot as well and I’m eyeing a supercharger myself or just selling the truck and getting a GX

Anyone in southern california willing to take me in a ride along? Debating selling my truck in the near future and getting a used GX460, or keeping the 3rd gen and just upgrading the motor...There is something kind of cool about the 3rd gens old school looks to me.

Hey everyone, Just had my valve cover gaskets done and noticed after a recent trip to some trails with shallow water crossings (mentioning this because it all might be related) that now sometimes (1 out of 5-6 times) the car wont start when I first put the key in the car and start to start the...

Nope, there are 9 perches on the 6112s (see this link here from Bilstein) I'm on 6/5 which correspond to a 1.3" lift per their documentation, in hindsight It might have been better to go for 7/6 for a 1.6" lift but the car is pretty level as is and I likely won't mess with it. Perches 9/8...

As promised To summarize - Bilstein 6112s Upfront (6th/5th perch), Bilstein 5100 Rear w/ ACDelco 45h2131 (99' Talls) & OME 10mm Rear Spacers... Totals for ~ 1.5" lift all around I also replaced my LBJs, UBJs, OTRs, Swaybar Bushings, & Swaybar end links... The car feels like a brand new...

Yeah I’ll post pics and my impressions after this weekend when I get everything installed

The "2001 4Runner: Scheduled Maintenance Intervals & Required Actions " link is broken :trophy: awesome post though

they make 6112s for 3rd gens now look at Bilstiens site for PNs and details. Mines an 2002 though

As the title says I have 6112's for the fronts & 5100 with 99 talls (well technically ACDelco 45H2131 which are the same specs/dimensions) for the rear in the mail. I also ordered new top hats, new bushings and washers, along with LBJs and some other maintenance items. My question is, will I...

SaulG, sorry to bring this post back from the dead. But have you tried these ACDELCO rear springs? The 45H2131? I'm debating between those and the Moog 81041 (Cheapo 99 Talls) it looks like the ACDelco springs are variable spring rate coils, but the question is how do they handle and watch is...

What do you like about the OMEs more than the 99 talls did you run the 99 talls front and rear?

Is the the general opinion of most people? Went down a rabbit hole now I'm considering new 99 springs all around

100-170k miles? Depends on so many factors, but that's a rough estimate
