? about FJ swap and Daystar

[BPo001]

Looking to do the FJ shocks/coils swap on my 06 SR5. I want to add the Daystar 2.5/1.5 kit while I'm at it. Do I need to buy the Daystar kit for an FJ since that's the spring/shock setup I will have, or does it matter since its a direct replacement? Any help is appreciated! TIA

I bought my Daystar before I got my FJ springs. Since the FJ is a direct replacement of the 4Runner springs, I'm thinking we should be fine. I fit the Daystar spacers to the FJ rear coils and everything seems fine. Find out for sure when I install. But from what I read on here, we should be good

Both Daystar kits have different part numbers. But I believe they are interchangeable either way, should work just fine.

I believe the front uses the same part number. The rear I know is different, although either can be used. On the FJ rear spacer, the isolator/bumpstop goes between the spacer and coil. On the 4runner rear spacer, the isolator/bumpstop goes above the spacer between it and the frame. I can't say it really matters and I have no idea why they use two different designs, but either will work.

Sorry for the hijack, but being a direct replace, one wouldn't need anything extra correct?

So far as I know, that is correct. Hopefully somebody else will chime in
