Okay guys,
Dealership has to replace all the steering components and BJ's at their cost under the NYS lemon law. (Long story, but it all started with an improperly torqued wheel bearing by the dealer after turning rotors) BUT, it doesn't cover shocks or springs.... My rear is sagging, and all 4 shocks are bad.

I have to order coils and shocks SOON, and have a couple questions.

I am thinking of getting all stock stuff, mainly due to cost. All 4 shocks, 2 rear coils, and top and bottom "insulators" (rubber cushions on top and bottom of coils) will be $250 to my door from www.1sttoyotaparts.com .
My other choice is OME medium set. Coils, shocks and steering stabilizer for around $478 shipped from www.rocky-road.com

Now, given my two choices, does anybody have anything bad to say about ride quality (RIDE QUALITY is what I'm after) of a stock suspension system on a stock 4runner that will see 95% pavement? This is my new daily driver, and I have my truck for the real bad (fun) stuff. This 4runner WILL see many fire roads, some light off-roading and will be towing a 20' boat LOTS this summer. This runner will get about 15k miles of highway under it by the end of this year.
Regarding the OME setup, do these springs lift the back so much you need to adjust the torsion bars in front? And if so, is this a PITA? I would like to get a "good feeling" suspension under this thing, with some off-road ability, good on-road manners, and not that "boat" feeling in corners and sudden stops etc.
Thank you all for your help.
Jason

I hear the OME stuff is good across the board. I personally have Downey HD Coils and Deuschtec (sp) shocks from them as well on my '93. It's great for what I need it for but I wouldnt recommend the Heavy Duties for you, they have a "stock" rate and I think the kit was less than $175??? including springs, extended braided brake line and LSVP rod relocate bracket (shock were extra). Regardless of the spring maker the install is easy and the torsion adjustment is easy also if it's even needed. My coils picked me up 2" inches, I left the front alone, it sits just right.

To me the stock stuff does have a little of that "boat" feel (nothing like a F*rd tho!). I like everything I drive sprung stiff, speed and cornering are what's most important however the HD coils are harsh when the rig is empty and most folks wont like them. good luck with her!
