1.5" rear spacer (4Runner vs FJ).

[progress4m]

Does anyone know the deference between Daystar 1.5” rear spacer for FJ and 4Runner?
I cannot find the correct Daystar part number for 4Runner 1.5” rear spacer (neither can “4Wheel Parts”) but part number for FJ is DAYKT09127BK…
I would like to know if it is possible to use FJ spacer for 4Runner. Just trying to save some money: ($39.99 (FJ) vs $129.99 (4Runner)
Any info is appreciated.

There's no technical reason I can think of... The FJC springs fit into my T4R perfectly. With that in mind top and bottom spring contact surfaces have to be the same. The rubber cone thingy's that hang down in the rear spring have the same part# for the T4R and the FJC.

I just ordered the FJ spacers for my 05 4R, waiting on them to show up. It will probably be weekend after next before I get the time to put them on unless I cant stand it and make it a late week night. Ill post up how it goes.

they can be used for fj or 4runner...almost any product having to do with the fj's suspension system is the exact for the 03-09 4runners (4th gen)

Hanks2,

Did you ordered front and rear? Also, please let me know if you will run into any issues with using FJ spacer(s).

Here is the part that Daystar lists for the rear of your '05:

BTW, dont listen to the people at 4WP, they usually dont know their heads from their butts...

Hanks2,

Did you have a chance to install those FJ spacers (1.5’ rear) on your 4Runner?

Yea, put them on Friday evening. Basically set them down next to the truck and they installed themselves, really easy to do. A second person was good to have around to push the axle down but I could have done it alone too. Lift is just right. I put Bilstein 5100's on the front a few weeks ago set at 1.75" but it put the front higher than the rear. Putting these 1.5" Daystar spacers in the rear did the trick. I hauled a trailer the following day + gear and set nice and level, then the next day drove to the coast. Ride comfort is just like stock, no rattle or other issues. I cant give a long term report but so far its just right for me.

Just want to make sure, is that a spacer you had installed? Or yours looked deferent?
