92 surf rear coils

Post by hiluxturbo2.4 »

hey just wondering if anyone can help ? ive cut and shut the rear half of a 92 surf chassis onto a 82 hilux i put 2 inch lifted coils into the rear to try and match the hieght of the front but its still about 2 inch's to low and they dont have springs on the shelf any higher . is there a spring out of another 4b that will do the job?

Custom king springs..

I have 4" springs in mine but really need 5" coils.

Luke from lukeys4x4 ordered them for me last time, not sure if he can help.. Was a while ago

I thought stock height 80 springs lift a 4 runner about 2 inches. So 2 inch raised 80 springs should go about 4 inches in a 4 runner. 20mm spacers will net you almost an inch more on top if needed.

Pretty sure factory 80 series rear coils give 3-4" lift and aftermarket std height 80 series coils bout 5".

IMO anything over 4" lift wants some extra width to reduce the flopp'in chances when check'in out the mall scene.

I put my standard well used springs in a mates runner and it lifted it a good 4"

Aha! So I had it a little ass backwards. I threw out quite a few stock 80 springs last year.
