Good post. Worth a try. I'm sure the 700s are too much. Oddly enough, I called KING and they said 700s are ok for these trucks just take out the preload. They also said its super easy to do with coils on the truck. But in reality need to remove from truck and compress springs to adjust. Called...

BrianSD_42, While I appreciate your advice, you are off base. I am not disputing that 700lbs is too much. I'm sure it is. As I've written several times now the 700lb coilovers were an experiment to see if the front of the truck will ride differently from the 620 Bilsteins. It doesn't. Now are...

Definitely worth a try!

I appreciate the response but as most of the folks here you missed the part where I said I previously had 620lb coilovers that road poorly and Toytec told me they're too soft, so these 700 lbs are experimenting with solutions. The coils are not the problem. The truck rides rough with any coil...

Scramble Are you still blathering? How dumb can you possibly be...I said I replaced all shocks with KINGs. I never said 861s are worn out. Coils have a break in period during which they settle some. There is no point to anything you've written. Please step away from the forum.

Good info. It's hard to choose between soft or durable since I work out of 4Runner and ideally need both. Nice looking Rover. Now you've made me want to share my pics 4Runner is the trail maker I take down the roughest right of ways and use like an ATV mowing through the mesquite. Thing...

Thanks for the info. I hear what you are saying but this is the first time I've tried 700lb fronts as an experiment/possible solution to the rough ride I had with the softer coils. And the rear is always far worse than the front. I could live with the front but the rear is unbearable. Ive...

I will look into replacing the body mounts that's a good idea. But I've run with extended links and without sway bar entirely without any effect. Have replaced front UCAs and bushings but have not gotten to rear control arms yet as they looked relatively new from PO. Good info tho. Couldn't hurt...

Scramble After reading your post I absolutely understand why you can't afford to buy KING shocks. You can't say dumb things and be condescending, kid. Maybe pick one at a time. You really think sway bar end links are the problem? LOL 99 coils are not for extra weight. You are talking out of...

Thanks all for the suggestions. Well, most of you anyway. There's always 1 shithead on any given thread. To be more specific, the previous Toytec setup had Bilstein 5100 620lb coilovers before and it rode poorly. The rear 9602 coils in this Toytec lift kit rode very badly too. I actually did...

You may be onto something here. I do run E 10 plys. That probably contributes to the problem!

As I said in the OP, I've had soft coilovers and soft rear coils. It rides terrible.

So here's my situation with my 01 4Runner.... I had Toytec's Bilstein/Boss 3" lift kit previously and it rode terribly (on and off road) with the soft coils and heavy cargo/bumpers/fat spare/arb drawer/tools/etc. So I upgraded the rear coils to Superflex (still too soft), then to 861's...
