Best way to Suspension Level a 95?

[Boomer8404]

I have done a little searching on the forum here but either I have over looked a possible thread, or just cant find what I'm looking for. I have a 95' 4Runner and the rear end is sagging. Unfortunately its running factory coil spring, so no Zuk mod.

I have been considering putting in some Daystar coil spring spacers to level. On the other hand though, I have been thinking of doing a 2-3in suspension lift on all four corners, but if I did that I dont know if with that small of a lift if I would have to use the stock springs or aftermarket springs.

I'm sorry if this is a repeat of other posts, I would really appreciate any input you guys could help me out with. Thanks.

If you want to level it out you need to buy new stock coils. If you want a 2 inch lift ome is a great kit.

Replace you coils with a 2" lift coils and run some BJ spacers. Cheap and easy.

if you want a 4 in lift, do a procomp lift IFS lift and FJ80 coils in the rear.

I'd like to do this OME kit for mine, but want to keep it cheaper.

I'm thinking Moog rear springs (from Rockauto) and Pro Comp shocks.

Thoughts?

Any reason to pick the ES3000 over the ES900 shocks?

What brand springs?

How was the install on the springs? I've done shocks (on other cars), but never DIY'd springs (a little nervous about compressing them).

You don't pre-compress the rear springs as you would with a coil over shock set-up... just lift truck, disconnect shock and lateral control arm, lower axle, take old spring out, put new spring in, reconnect everything, lower truck... it basically just sits in there.

All I've ever messed with is coil overs, so I assumed compressing was necessary (I always took my coil over assemblies to a shop to compress and swap for me).

I clearly need to find a DIY!

Thanks for the info.

My kit came with 2" ball joint spacers for the front, 2" Old man Emu rear coils springs and a set of Pro Comp 3000 shocks. No reason for ordering ES3000 shocks... that's just what I got a deal on at the time.
I ordered it from Fat Bobs Garage.
It was $409.70 with the diff drop kit option and ES3000 shocks but I didn't install the diff drop kit.
Here is a link to the kit I ordered...

The es9000s are better than the es3000s IMO. I currently run es9000s in the rear.
