FJ Complete Suspension for '07 V8 4X4 Limited

[jyriberr]

I'm new to the forum...just bought a 2007 4Runner V8 Limited 4X4 without XREAS to replace my beloved Tacoma that the wife hates. I've been reading through the forums but can't seem to find the exact answer I'm looking for.

I found a complete FJ suspension for sale (front coil overs, rear shocks and coils) from a 4x4. For my configuration, anyone have any idea how much lift I will get from a direct 1-for-1 swap? I'm trying to clear 275 65 18s w/ spidertrax spacers. I know there might be some trimming, or perhaps I may need spacers, but can't find the exact situation I have. Others have FJ coils but 5100s or something else.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You can expect to average .5 in lift in the front and .75 lift in the rear.

If you're going to do a direct swap, I encourage you to throw some spacers on while you're doing it. You'll already have everything out anyway. I've got a Truxxx 3/1.25 on top of FJ c/o's and coils and shocks in the back and I am extremly happy with the results. I'm running 285 Toyos with Spidertrax.

wtn11- Thanks for the info! This is really helpful because I don't want to have to take it all apart, put it together only to measure and figure out I need to do it all over again with spacers!
