I'll buy a toyota... only if you buy my Montero. Hmm... So probably NOT. I made some calls regarding the rancho shock listed in the above post. From the people I've talked it... they all say it is an eye to eye type shock. You posted stating that it would work w/ the current stock setup. Do you have ...

Another Note: "So the shock that fits the bill is the RS99186. This shock is 13.125" compressed and 20.375" extended. It has the same stud mount as standard but has a bush mount base compared to a bush and sleeve but i dun think that is a problem." The Rancho RS99186 shock is an eye to eye shock ...

"Monty, i hate too say it but it seems you have no idea what we are talking about here. " Actually, you are probably right. That is why I ask questions so directly. I needed to find out which shock will work best and give the most travel. Since, 20.5" is the max w/o doing extreme mods.... I think ...

Here is the deal: I'm interested in the possiblity of wristing the trailing arms in the future. The current setup will be: 3.5" lift springs, no sway bar, trimed bump stops (if needed), spring retainers (if needed), and new shocks? Since I will have longer springs than stock... I can probably go ...

So, the trailing arms bind up to prevent more wheel travel?? Has anyone discovered a solution to replace the trailing arms with?? I know there is a way to get more flex... and it might take some custom work... Check out this... This is the flex I'm looking for: http://community.webshots.com/image1/4 ...

Hey Mike, I just ordered my 3.5" lift springs for the back and they are progressive. I really appreciate the numbers and research that you did. And it sounds like the Rancho is a good shock as well... But here is something to consider: How if possible can I get the wheel to drop 25" on my LWB??? The ...

The web address: www.coilsprings.com And they have an online quote request form.... and you can ask questions. It took about 3-4 days for me to get a quote. But after that they have had quick responses. Seem like they know the stuff... and for the price... I thought I'd be spending around $400. And ...

Monty power, just keep in mind that lifting 3.5" in the rear is fine but you won't get the front high enough to match and you will be driving around downhill all the time. Frank i sent you email to the eisa address. I understand about the ride ange. Although, currently I'm driving uphill!!! I front ...

That is some nice wheel travel!!!! I'm looking to get 3.5" lift coils for the back of my Montero. I have a company www.coilsprings.com that will make them. They say that the springs will have the same stock characteristics (same firmness). I'm thinking about ordering soon. They are about $200 (us ...
