hey all another q im puting my surf lowers in my uppers and i need 80 or 60 lover arms rear can any 1 tell me the length of the lower 60 and 80 arms cherrs scoty

60series had leafs so no control arms
80series lowers are right on 700mm maybe a touch less

Hey mate, have you worked out how you are going to go bout this?

Won't you have to move the top mounts forward by like 100-150mm, otherwise it will try to push the diff back heaps and will bind up the panhard?

Just wondering, I have the same coil rear and am interested in it too.

There is no way the surf lowers will fit the upper position without some fairly serious mods. It will be next to impossible to move the upper front mounts forward without ditching the fuel tank and there is not enough room to move the upper diff brackets rearward.

Not saying it can't be done, but a lot of work.

The 80 lowers will not fit the diff mouts or the chassis mounts either, they are not as wide in the bush as the Surf bushes.

Cheers

well i have bin told by some 1 on here that the surf lowers put in the top and get 80 botoms for botom for beter ride i dismanteld the rear links put the lowers in the uppers it pushed the diff back 4 inch so un lesss i can be botherd to move the mounts forward 200 mm i dont no if it is worth it i mite just beef up the uppers aand dont forget its not in a surf its in a ln106 single cab now so moving tank its not a problem

If you have the room to move the chassis mounts then go for it.
Or if you can live with the diff 4" further back then just set up the diff and chassis brackets for the lowers to suit the diff position.

The length combo of surf lowers in top and 80 lowers on bottom should work well.

Wouldn't the panhard bushes bind up causing a shi# ride being 4" offset?

What other trailing arms have the same bush size as the 4 runner?

I WOULD HAVE TO MOVE PANARD LOCATION UNLESS I MOVE MY UPPER MOUNTS FORWARD THEN IT WILL FIT
