TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

I'm dropping the front from 650 coils to 500. And I can't run a ton of preload because then I'll get coil bind. I'm trying to hit 11" of travel

 

i need to swap to 700 springs. im as cranked as i want to be but its still sagging. Damn this heavy v8

 

If anyone of you want a silver set of 650lb coils I'll make you a sweet deal

 

duct tape it to your hatch

 

14x3x650?

Might want them for the Tundra.

 

Yes

 

What you want for them?

 

How's $160 shipped sound?

 

Spent my day taking my door panels off....anyone want blown speakers?



Replaced them with...

 

Nope

 

Hi, guys.

(* Well, I had my Taco stolen last week in beautiful Montreal, QC. It's been talked about enough already in my Taco build thread, so I don't want to mess up this thread. It's gone and no amount of bitching and crying will bring it back. It's either in a thousand parts or on it's way to Africa, so I let it go.)

I've decided on a 2016 T4R Trail (Canadian issue is like the USA Premium) in white as my next vehicle, so if you see me lurking around here and asking dumbass noob questions in the near future, please don't fry me.

I already have stuff piled in the garage that I can use on the T4R, like a new 10K K2O winch, Bussman set up with all the switches, ICON 700 lb/14" coil springs, some lighting, and a bunch of other stuff that I'll sell to pay for the other T4R mods. I'll end up having a stinger/hidden winch, sliders, roof rack, RTT, rear swing out with gas cans/tire, shovel, etc.

My first order of business will be a 2 1/2 to 3" lift on a moderate budget (no spacers) and some tires (probably not 285's like I had on the Taco). I've already had the Taco front apart about 4 times, so I know about that set up (except the KDSS), but I really need to learn about the rear set up on a T4R and what it takes for a leveled lift that'll take the weight and moderate off road travel. I had a nice ICON set up with SPC UCA's on my last truck and liked it, but I don't think wifey will let me spring that kind of coin again on a suspension.

I should be actively building in about two to three weeks.

 

wife told me shes ok with me selling the runner. hmmm

 

What's the replacement gonna be?

 

depends on my sale price lol

 

if I ever sell the runner all the funds will go towards building the Tacoma

 

Dibs on tire carrier.

 

Options?

 

id like a fullsize pickup

 

Any of you guys running 890's or 891's. I'd really like a hub to fender measurement
