What did you do with your 4runner today?
- Thread starter NorthGa4R
- Start date
Here is a b4 and after pic. Looks a little a$$ high... maybe its bc my sloped driveway... or coz it's more level now. although the numbers show the rear is 1" taller than the front. i know leveling it can make it look a lil weird...
while i was typing this, this just came in!
looks like i get to get wet laying under the truck
(it just rained)

did you compare the ironman front coils to the oem ones?
partsouq.com
They are located in the UAE but ship fairly quickly and as you can see, they are quite a bit cheaper.
I've ordered from them twice and had my parts in less than a week. Can you cancel the order you placed?

i saw that on my searches too but i was a bit skeptical since it was from UAE, besides the one i ordered is coming from virginia so i'll get it next week and hopefully have my car running by the end of next week. I cant cancel since it already shipped but now i know i can order from that place in the UAE with confidence.
Thanks!

Can someone please explain what this is?
Inspection cover for the timing chain. Not where your leak is coming from. The entire front timing cover needs to be resealed. Took me over 8 hours. It leaks right around where the head, block, and timing cover meet. Search for timing cover leak. It's a slow weep that isn't under preassure, a lot of guys keep it clean and leave it alone unless it gets bad.

I did, here they are side by side. The "original" shock was replaced at one point as it was some aftermarket brand I'd never heard of. Suspect the spring was original.

Ahh the elusive Australian 4runner. Here I'll convert that to American for you so we can understand it.

Swapped out my rear FJ coils and 1.5" spacers for Metal Tech LT MD coils and removed the rear sway bar which gave me about 2" of additional lift. Next is going to be replacing the rear 5100's with OME 60071L's and add SS brake lines to gain the extended down travel. Currently the truck feels a little to loose with no sway bars so I will probably be reinstalling the front but will know better today after I take it on a long test run.
i just lifted my 4R with Billy 6112s and 5160s and was thinking... eh i think i can do away with the front sway bars.
took it out for a spin after the lift install and w/o the sway bar it feels so different..... in not a good way. sure i could change my driving habits, which i will have to adjust anyways bc of the lift, but it was way too squirly for me. Put the front sway bars back on and it was night and day. I felt much more safe. I'm not rock crawling or need crazy travel and felt safer with it on.
What coils do you have? Makes a huge difference.i just lifted my 4R with Billy 6112s and 5160s and was thinking... eh i think i can do away with the front sway bars.

thank you... it was late and i didn't want to leave it with no pic. the forum need to fix the auto flip doesn't like car photos. I can't do car portraits either and it does think mine is Australian or some kind of boat.
Yeh i figures that could make a diff. It's the coils that come w the front 6112s and then icon (non hd) 2" lift Springs.
