Gen 2 front coil on a Gen 1

G2 on G1 front coil spring swap?
My experience:

2006 SR5 V6 take off's:
Drivers side coil with grey and green marks is 14 3/8" tall.
Passenger side coil with white and blue marks is 14 1/4" tall.
Not sure of spring weight but assume somewhere around 550 with standard coils.

2003 PreRunner TRD/OR 4 cyl DC:
Drivers side coil with brown and orange marks is 13 5/8".
Passenger side coil with brown and green marks is 13 1/2".
Not sure of spring weight but assume 500 with progressive coils.

Lift is a solid 2.5" and it rides like a dump truck. My son will love it as the truck is perfectly level.
I also installed KYB Gas-Adjust front struts to replace the original non-functioning 21+ year old Toyota Tokico blue struts.
I'll keep the old gen 1 coils just in case.




Update: I just returned the truck to stock as this lift was too exaggerated.

 

Hi Rob, I have a 2000 G1 extra cab, I’m trying to lift the front of it to clear some oversized tires the previous owner put on. How much lift did the G2 v6 spring give you? Do you have a part number for the springs?
