4 Runner stuff

Post by Emu0505 »

I've just bought a 92 4Runner and have noticed that it looks like it's driving uphill....ie the tail sags.

Has anyone come across this and how can I fix it.

I'm also looking for a front passenger guard to replace a damaged one. Has anyone got any tips or knowledge of the non-genuine Taiwanese panels?

Thanks

Yep, common on 4Runners. Replace your rear coil springs and use a "linear" rate spring. If you use a "variable" rate spring, it'll be saggin again in a year or two.

Shouldn't need to pay anymore than $180 for a pair of spings.

The non genuine guards are pretty good i have used them a few times now and have yet to realy fault them for the price.

I am about to buy a non genuine bonnet for my new rig.
