I'm about to throw out a set of stock 100 series coils if anyone wants them. Good ones too, no sag.

Stock cruiser springs give you 4 inches rear lift.

If you go down this path though, there are things that will need to follow to get the rear working properly.

Extended shocks.. I got the standard 4 inch lift rear rancho rs5000's and they work fine. Rs 9000s are good also. http://www.4wd1.com/4Runner-Coil.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; $280
adjustable panhard rod (also on the same page on the above link) $280
panhard rod drop bracket (stops tail shaft hitting fuel tank.. http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/Coi ... acer.shtml" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) $45 US plus postage.
Extended rear break line (any brake shop will custom make one for you.) I paid around $80.
Rear LSPV lift bracket (lifts rear proportional brake valve) Easy to do yourself. Just a bit of flat bar will do the job.

Total cost around $680-700 plus whatever your springs cost.

Goodluck with it all.

Just in case anyone else wanted the springs I offered above. They have been thrown out and are no longer available.

If you need some, throw up a wanted ad and no doubt someone will have something. Hopefully close enough to pick up.

You should have taken the $100 that Pinky was willing to pay you for them.

Yeah I know but the other thing he wanted me to do for him in that $100 was the deal breaker. I don't think I had anywhere near enough bubble wrap and dishwashing liquid anyway....
