having the sagging wagon action going on, I am looking into all new shocks and springs on all 4 corners. I don't want to do a big lift, or much of a lift that would just make it harder to get kayaks on and off

doing research here lots of people recommend going with the 99 talls
so I looked up the part number for a 99 T4r, limited, 16 inch wheels, v-6 4wd and got this # 4823135210

but then looked up the stock spring for my 2000 SR5 and its the same number, maybe the 2000 had the "talls" to begin with also ?

True ?

lastly, before I get flamed...the Moog srings from rock auto any good ?
new springs and KYB gas is the plan

'99 tall springs:
FR Spring - Blue / Yellow (48131-35400) Passenger Side
FL Spring - Blue / Pink (48131 - 35350) Driver Side
REAR Springs - Yellow / Red (48231 - 35210)
 
not knowing how to quote 3 people in one response
I did look up it all up
that is the part numbers I came up with
2 inches might not sound like much...but when lifting something onto a rack, 2 inches can be a mile

Is there only one number for both side on the rear? And are those Toyota number or a jobber (Rockauto.....)?:ohwell:

further of interest.... after your post listing 2 different front springs I did some research
surprising how many aftermarket only list one spring for either side....and looking in "search" people having issues with a lean in there T4R after installing new springs
 
About the 99 Talls...

I was thinking about going this route for a modest lift. I am running BFG KO2s in 265/75/16, and will be adding a Shrockworks front bumper when it arrives in July.

Should the 99 Talls handle the extra weight of the FB? Or should I be looking at something else?

I am not really leaning towards the the traditional 3" lift. I think the 99 Talls would be a good compromise that would go easier on all my other components.
 
Moog springs are thin, I compared thickness to stock and others and decided not to get them. They sag much quicker than the stock ones and you'll be back to where you were before.

I suggest 99's for no weight. With bumper and winch I would go with OME coils.

I doubt they will handle it without sagging. I don't have first hand experience, but I added an aftermarket bumper to the front of my 2000 and it started to sag after a month or two. I am guessing the 99' coils are not designed to handle any more weight then the other year of springs. Guessing they are just slight longer coils giving them the little extra height. Maybe someone else can confirm.
 
FWIW, I just put new '99 tall coils on my '96 limited with new Bilstein HD shocks about 1 month ago. With about 80-100 lbs of gear in the cargo area, it's sagging about 1.25". I'm a little disappointed about the sag with new springs. I had hoped the sag wouldn't come back that quickly. I may try air bags to level when hauling gear/ bikes.

Wikano,
FWIW I replaced my stock 2000 rear coils with 1999 talls. See photo for side-by-side comparison and color code. Before and after images also. My T4R is 4wd, 265/70/16 tires, savage rear bumper and wooden drawers/storage deck in rear with about 100 lbs of tools.
