    Morning everyone.

    I currently have a ToyTec coilover front suspension (with 5100s) on my 2008 Tacoma PreRunner. I'm guessing that I have close to 50k on this suspension.

    I'm wondering what kind of mileage you guys are getting out of this set-up...
    It may just be me, but it starting to feel a little worn out up there.

    Does anyone have any knowledge about how long this setup is goof for?

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Pretty sure I read recently to expect around 60k (obviously less if you're wheeling it). You're probably due for a replacement.

    Prolly around 40K right now on eibachs and 5100's....no probs yet.

    But a lot goes into wear and tear besides mileage


    What are your symptoms of feeling worn out?

    Bouncing a lot?

    Sagging?

    Leaking?


    Just realized it sounded like a female body part.... Wtf?

    Haha. Aren't those the same reasons you would change a woman?
