'07 FJ suspension on '06 4runner??

[Bweeksatl]

Does anyone know if the factory front coil over springs/shocks and rear shocks form a '07 FJ cruiser fit the '06 4runner. Thanks for any info and if so will it level the front out any?

They will fit and should net you around 1/2" - 3/4" of lift. There's a sticky at the top of the "suspension" section with tons of info!

Yes it is a direct swap. Lift amount depends on your engine and if you have 4wd or not. If you will post that info I can give you a more accurate lift estimate.

Thanks for all the info its only 2wd/V6 but the front just looks too low. I also plan on getting the daystar2.5/1.5 spacers also so I can run bigger tires.

With the FJ springs and the 2.5/1.5 you'll be nose high. 2wd v6 I'd estimate front lift between 1.25" and 1.5" from FJ springs alone, probably ~1/2" rear. I know on the 4x4's you don't want to go much over 3" lift in the front, with the 2wd you may be fine going bigger, I'm not too sure. I'm guessing you'd need new UCA's for a good alignment if you went much over 3".

So with just the fj coils on front would I need a spacer in the rear for it not to look nose high. I was planning on leaving the rear springs stock 4runner. the biggest spacers most people run on the front with the fj coils is like .5inch?

I would most definitely do FJ springs front and rear, they improve the ride and it just feels awkward having the front only (I have only fronts, can not do the rears with my suspension). It all depends on what look you're going for. If you just want level, do the springs only and it'll be leveled out. If you were a v8 or 4x4, you'd need to add a small spacer to get it leveled, but my guess is with the v6 2wd you'll get enough from just the FJ springs. People run FJ springs with the 2.5/1.5 kit, but the FJ springs don't provide as much lift on their rigs as it will on yours. v6 2wd is much lighter than the 4x4's and v8's, so that's why you'll gain more lift from the front springs than others have.

X2 ARK_SWAMP_RIDER. That is one of the reason, I have DS2.5/1.5 kit sitting in the garage, while I am looking for V6 4WDto swap with my V6 2WD.
As soon as I see a good deal of 4x4, will grab it and then will do DS and BFG 265/70's....Hope it will happen soon.
