Just another coil spring question, but my first! I have an 01 4x4ltd, it has new bilsteins just installed...But it sags a little on the gas tank side...Anyway I would like to level up the rig a bit w/o lifting too much...Don't really want to open up a can of worms with the new springs, (brake lines and others)...I am not a regular offroader but occasionally the rig will see some 4x4...Like this weekend! I think the 4runner could ride a bit better on the street if the right choice is made. There is no frame damage of any kind on the truck...My guess is just weak springs...:party: Any advice would be appreciated!

Weak springs could be the issue. If it only sags on one side I would look to make sure there aren't any bent members under the vehicle, worn or missing bushings, etc. Of course, if your taking my advice, you could be wukinpnub in o da wong placez.
 
Do you have a full gas tank? A full tank will add roughly 160lbs to the driver's side. If you turn the rig 180° does it still sag to the same side? If you get the OME's they have an A and a B coil for just such a thing. Might want to make sure it's really leaning first though.
 
springs?

Thanks for the help,it usually has a full tank of gas...I thought if that but figured if a tank of gas causes it to lean then the coils were probably a bit weak...I will look into a underside inspection by a toyota guy, good starting point...A and B coils are something I have not heard of before from OME...:shrug:
