    In the past I've installed OME into my FJ60 &FZJ80 Land Cruisers.
    On the Tacoma are the springs marked rear L/R? Front L/R?
    Thanks

    If they aren't marked..... You can mark them yourself with some tape or paint.

    Or did you already take them off and can't remember which side they go on?

    They are a new set, i don't have them yet they will be here Tuesday.
    I beleive they come with a part number __ _ _ A 0r B
    or one rear will have a + sign along with the part number.
    I thought the "A" spring was driver side same if it has the + on the spring.
    Not sure about any markings on the front coils

    OME is a good product. I had 881's on my 96.

    They were never marked as side specific. I would assume they still are not side specific or else they would specify in the directions.

    OME has spacers (trim packers) to add to adjust for any uneven lift. These coils are for all different applications and trucks.

    I'm gonna assume you are 2nd gen because of the section this is posted in


    2nd gen rear leafs are not side specific

    A " + " indicates a leaf pack over spec while a " - " indicates a leaf pack under spec , a " 0 " or no marking indicates a leaf pack at spec

    For the infamous Taco lean , the highest spec leaf pack ( if you have one ) should be put on the driver's side

    The front coils are also not side specific , when used with OME shocks a 5mm trim packer should be added to the driver's side
