Spring Trivia... HELP ME INDETIFY LC OR TUNDRA

[beer-toe]

OK I will start from the beginning...

I purchased a set of used front shocks, that were equipped with the trd tundra billsteins, the famous ones everyone is using, silver bodies, same part numbers as the TRD bilstein shocks, and they were wrapped with coils with paint markings pink/white and the other orange/white. I bought these off a member who is no longer on here. He bought them from a guy that said they came off a tundra. So i am beleiving i have tundra shocks.....I pulled off the shocks and paired them with my toytec coils and 4runner tophats and isolaters. They bolted in beautiful and ride amazing....

So now i have these coils im listing for sale as tundra coils but with odd color codes. I tried looking them up but cant find them online. Will add pics later..

Well i had a member JMWeaver shoot me a text who is interested in my springs. This guy was awesome, helping identify my springs. he sent me a link(will add later) showing what looks exactly like my springs for sale, same color codes and wraps, but these were actually off a Land Cruiser. The only difference i see is that paint marks are opposite. My white marks are on top and instead of on the bottom. but they do have the right combo oneach, orange/white and pink/white...

So the question is do i have front coils off a tundra or the front coils on a landcruiser?

Discuss....... Thanks guys, i dont screw anyone over by selling springs that i dont know what they exactly came off of....

Here is a picture of the lc springs..

Looks identical minus the color codes being opposite from each other

Let me say this: I am not an expert on springs. I know they are not 4Runner springs!

Looking at the two though, the ones you have do not look to be LC coils, at least not from the 91 like what was pictured. They are Blue/Pink/White and Grey/Orange/White (you can see the blue and grey if you look real hard).

Yours only have two colors (no blue or grey at the top), the colors are reversed, and the coils themselves are thicker and closer together.

That being said, I have no knowledge to what kind of Toyota they did come off of. It's just not a Land Cruiser.

If they were paired with the tundra trd billsteins, they must have came off a tundra. Just unsure of model.

The damn colors though from the LC looked really convincing..

The search continues.....

Thanks for your input though I appreciate it.

bump since you all had time to think about it.....

ANYONE ELSE?

If they were off a land cruiser I don't think they would fit on the Tundra shocks. LC FRONT springs are commonly used to lift the REAR of 3rd gen 4runners.

And these don't look even close to identical. The LC coils are clearly much larger and with more space between the wraps.
