check out my camburg coil over shocks hello whoops

[dunebashing toyota]

I just put these coil overs on my 4runner i took them off my tundra they handle the whoops way better on the 4runner then the tundra the pic of the kit with the a arms thats for the tundra. I just now need to find some suspension for the rear the rear cant keep up i got the back tires like a foot off the ground threw the whoops maybe higher. any suggestions on leaf springs and shocks?

Wait for it.....

Wait for it.....

I've been waiting for it. OP, you may want to take another look at your rear suspension...

 

[Brilliant]

jackstand?

 

[dunebashing toyota]

There both on jack stands u just can't see them I just leave the jack for a extra safety and I put a tire under the tundra for even more safety

 

[PitbullRescuer]

Nope, not it. Again, take another look at the rear suspension.

O.P. You don't have leaf springs on the 4Runner.....they are coil springs.....

If you have not already, check out the Lift FAQ at the top of the 3rd Gen forum page. There is a ton of info in that thread regarding lift options.

That being said, I'm Running Landcruiser 8 Wrap coils, and some Skyjacker lift shocks (not ideal, as they are made for a 2.5" of lift, and the springs yield more), in the back. The truck rides pretty nice with that combo though.

Depending on how much lift those front coilovers give you, meaning if they give you more than the stock Tundra coils and struts, I'd run the Landcruiser 9 wraps with some stock Landcruiser shocks. That should give you some suspension rake, and allow you to tow or load the truck up with gear, and not have the rear sag down.

Again, this is just some of the info available in the FAQ, so take a read at that first, and then decide what you want to do.

Your quest, starts here:

You'll want something with a higher spring rate. I'd go with the OME 891's in the rear and either OME shocks or the 5100 Bilsteins. Icon makes rear shocks but they are pricey and probably best for the desert.

I'm happy with Icon's in the front and OME setup in the rear though for now.

lol.... y'all are so mean on here.
I am running the same set up up front. To level out my rig, I had to throw some 1.5in daystar spacers under there even after getting my old man emu 890 in. I think that they must spec those springs off 01' or 02' stock springs, b/c they are definitely not 3in taller. When I stood them next to my stock springs from my 98', they were only about 3/4 of an inch taller, hence needing the spacer.
The other route would be to go with some LC springs (7-8 wrap), but I keep hearing that they are really mushy.
I wouldn't go with the 891 unless you are planning on really having 500lbs of cargo in your rear, 890 are the 'goldie locks' springs in my opinion for wheeling... that is unless you do have 500lbs in the back.

And for shocks, just buy some cheap ProComp 9000. You are just wasting money if you buy those fancy Fox shocks that are $150, you only need those if you're hitting 10ft gaps out in the desert at 80mph...

 

[t4r4life]

fox or kings

 

[GottaBeTRD]

Sway Away is another option

 

[kaceman]

there is not a lot of options for our runners when it comes to the rear check out ttora, they have an actual desert section. Chaplain is the only one ive seen with a rear that keeps up with the front

[t4r4life]

you can always get rid of the gay stock mounting point, and weld a stud on the frame, that way you can use hoop to hoop shocks like NORMAL trucks lol

 

[rickashay]

Check out City_Rider's 4Runner on here too. He has Fox. 2.5's and UCA's up front and fox resi's in the rear with a similar shock setup as "chaplain" on ttora.

 

[Triumphdog]

I have the Camburg setup also. I have their UCAs. The coilovers KICKASS!! I'm running the Bilistein 5100 the rear, along with Tundra springs. My rear end is level with the front, but I think I'll be changing over to Icon very soon.

 

[SCRunner12]

^Tundra springs in the back? Explain.

 

[eplanajr]

Man up.
Link that rear end.

Whoops will be the least of your concerns...

 

[dunebashing toyota]

Thanks guys for all the info. I think I'm just gonna go all out and link the rear end.

It already is.....

I know this was posted a few days ago but these two claims couldn't be more wrong, the 890 and 891 definitely do not require 500 lbs of weight in the back. I'm not even sure where you got such a ridiculous number. The 890 are a lower spring rate too so they are softer than the 891s. If you ever plan to put a rear bumper 891 is the way to go. Even without, Id still go with the 891, i don't have a rear bumper yet but the ride isn't bad at all. Slightly stiffer thats all. Plus a higher rate spring like the 891 will allow you to carry more load, nice to have even if you don't haul lots of stuff with your rig.

Secondly the word cheap is exactly how you describe procomp shocks. Now I'm not putting people down who have them because everyone has a budget that they need to stick too. However, they will never perform like their more expensive counterparts and will never last as long. I know that my 5150 bilsteins will last me the life of my runner if need be and still deliver the perfomance that I require from them. And fox rear shocks are stiffer than procomps or billys doesn't mean that you cant use them on the street. City_Rider replaced his billys because he wanted a stiffer shock due to the rear bumper he has and added weight in the back. Next time try to see things from more than just your incredibly biased, maybe uneducated, point of view.
