Yep, a factory option. I sold Toyota in 96 -97.. There was an issue with the fob part breaking off the key part. So, now the fob part is available from the dealer.. so, it's just a fob. the idea was this: 1. the key would act as antenna and give extended range. 2. thought at the time to be less...

Yep, I do not believe it is so bad. you can get that welded up. beside you seem to have great access, with it driving upside down :bounce:. So, just get a good welder to fix it up, and keep driving her til she dies..

Thanks again.

Roger that. I'm guessing 100 lbs of sub box, and 70 lbs of toolbox and 40-50 lbs crap will close to offset the heavy bumper weight some. Then the question for me would be if the 891s (I'm good with that) are probably 4 inch unloaded, then the 906s are probably 3 inch unloaded. then the only...

That is probably the best answers right there. Now I'm mostly convinced, a set of the OME 2891 springs, for the 3 inch lift. so I don't have to rebuild up front in this deal. ACDelco, is a brand. I appreciate your input. Now I better get down town and get my Gigolo (giggitty) hustle on to...

Thanks, Charlie. It looks like the 906 (I'm actually seeing P/N 2906 on Wheeler's sight) gives about 2in lift and a 230 load rate, I have 3in on the front. the OME 2891 give about 2.5 to 3 and have a 210 load rate. They would seem comparable in all aspects except lift, where the 2891 would give...

Ok, so called my buddy at the Toyota parts shop. We discussed several question's I had. He said Bags would be ideal, but he agreed that my OEM springs are probably tired. He recommended replacing the stock springs with some professional grade variable rate AC Delco springs from Rock Auto. said...

Thanks Yella.. I believe we are both chasing the same dog. I have to tow sometimes, and I am leaning towards 240K miles, and 20 years OEM (Not OME) springs may just need some newer ones.. Anyone went with the LC-7 coil on the 4runner, and have some input on sag during towing? I still...

Thanks SOFloT4r.. Greatly appreciated..

Thanks Deepsea88, I just found some OME 2891 springs on Wheeler's, that might do the trick, like Door County Wine, doocha know. I do have a 2x10 box, and a stock bumper so Should be enough to soften the 2891's ride... I might just get a set of MOOG Replacements, If I can findout what The...

Thanks. Yes, it is... I miss it sometimes. Then I go home in January and remember why I live in Arkansas... lol. Remember Drink Wisconsinably..

Thank you, fellow Wisconsinite. (I have been transplanted, but it never leaves you) I'll look into that. I would need to total 3 inches to level the truck, as I have 3 on the front. Is there a model that is an inch taller? Heck, My 4runner has 240K miles, and I'm sure they are original...

Thanks, Mike.

My 97 limited, has stock shocks, stock springs and 3 inch lift spacer. Works great, except when I hook up my trailer. I immediately get some noticeable sag. at least 2 inches. I've been searching the forum for information, and do not have any definite part numbers, or real payload information...

How about that? Let's throw ideas. this is the point.. I'll spend some time reading this thread: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/82359-3-4-vs-4-0-reliability.html I did just see some oiling issues, on the interwebs.. anyone have experience?
