    I'll get a better picture on some clean roads. It rides something awful right now and I didn't even know why

    Like a brick, essentially. Which makes sense now, seeing as there's minimal give with the way that it's currently set up. Not sure if I should blame myself or 4WP for that hahaha.

    I'm no prerunner expert, but I think the best ride for those would be a spindle lift.
    I'm sure the experts will chime in.

    If you wanted to keep the soft ride a spindle would have been the better option for a Prerunner. Any increase in the compression of the front coil will give a stiffer ride. If that is 5100's with an aftermarket spring or 5100's with factory springs at .85 or higher.

    Personally the stock truck rode like crap to me. I like a stiff suspension characteristic of a 4x4.

    JEEZUS! Eibach makes 620 lb and they're still stiff as hell. You'd think the bumper would help with that tho

    Needs a winch. A big winch. Maybe a big girlfriend too.

    That's why I got them originally! I figured that it would, but this setup has been riding for 2 weeks and it looks like they've settled all they're going to.
