OK, here's the deal:
My 4Runner: 2WD
Back in August I orderd 1.5" Daystar spacers for the rear and 1" Cornfeds for the front - then ordered the heavy rubber gaskets from Cornfed to increase the front to 1.5"
I have NOT installed either of these yet. Now I'm considering sending the Daystars back - my penalty will be a 20% restocking fee since it's beyond 30 days. Instead, I'm looking into getting "stock" 4x4 rear springs which I understand are 1" taller than the 4x2 rear springs. Then I can use the 1" Cornfed spacers up front for the little lift that I wanted. The rear 4x4 springs from Concielli Toyota are only about $38.00 each so it's cheaper than Daystar spacers.
Do yall think it's worth it to lose 20% on the cost of the Daystars in exchange for the springs? ($89)
Will the 4x4 springs fit without a problem?
Are the 4x4 stock springs thicker as well as taller or just taller? The 4x2 springs are thin.
I'm not looking into Downey springs or the PP lift springs 'cause I don't want that much lift - just a little.
Wha-da-ya-say? The other option is to use the Daystar spacers and forget about the springs...
