Any pics of just FJ springs and shocks installed?

thanks chris....

Im guessing the factory studs would work with that spacer....hmm.

The factory studs did work, any thicker and they wouldn't though

You can combine the Toytec 1" (net lift) spacer and that 1/4" spacer, but after speaking with a Toytec rep this isn't an advised setup. The Daystar is listed as 1", but it gives more like 1.75-2" of lift. If you want more than the Toytec, go with the Daystar. The Cornfed to my knowledge does give the true 1". I've got front FJ spings with the Toytec spacer, and it's pretty level, but a little rake left (higher in the rear). With FJ springs front/rear, combined with the front spacer, there would be even more rake than I have. You have to remember, the FJ springs are stiffer and there is less sag when towing, so it's not as big of an issue as before with stock springs.

Hey Thanks for the pic GATOROSE ! I think that looks perfect with the 1/4 spacer. Still has some rake for towing and the boards are not pointing the wrong way.

Thanks again
Bruce

Anybody install a set of 2010 FJ springs on a 4th Gen yet? I found a cheap set and wanted to know if they're identical to the 07-09 springs.

No problem, thanks for the compliment!!! I haven't seen anyone else do the 1/4" and everyone said I should to go bigger but I love it, just a little rake and its hard to tell the running boards aren't level.. The new ride quality is the best part though, no more boating over bumps or around turns!

Ya I can't wait for the better ride!

I don't remember which person did it but the 2010 FJ springs were installed in a 4th gen 4Runner with good results. The lift/drive improvement was in line with what everyone else has reported.

i have pics in a thread i started. this is the FJ springs front and back and the toytec 1/2" [1" gain] spacer on factory rims and no wheel spacers.

08' UR with maybe 15k miles and 09' FJ with under 3k on them

i still have a little rake on mine, just the right amount IMO. loaded back end will bring right to level.

Hey man looks great!! So you only have a 1" Toytec Spacer and no rubbing with the 275's? I have looked at those but figured you would have rubbing issues with the 275.

 

[8086bruce]

Yeah looks great!

 

[gaterose]

do you have any more pics gatorose?

There are some more pics in this album:

ImageShack Album - 24 images

Not a lot of variety, but I will post some more if you tell me what angles you want to see. The last two pics before the 2 night shots are before the rear coils, then stock.
