Well it good to know that they run the fronts in the rear. The thing is, I plan to run lift springs. Do they also come in a right and left? Id assume the driver side is a bit taller due to the fuel tank? If thats the case, I think Id need to swap right for left and viseversa since i have all off my tools and what not on the passenger side drawer system. I guess when I figure out what lift springs I need, Ill have to play around with swaping them around. Thanks for all the help. Ill try and get some more pictures up this afternoon.

I saw your post over in the 80 section too. You might try to find some matched 80 springs. Get one Left Front from one rig and another Left Front from another. This would balance it out as the 60 rear end is pretty well balanced with the tank centered. And like I posted earlier, spring rates changed both front and rear several times. You can match them up by the colored dots. I'm thinking the tallest springs I've seen have been out of the FJ80s. I've parted a few 80s and lifted a lot of them. The lowest ones I've seen were out of an 97 LX w/ 3rd row seats. I've heard mixed reports about whether or not the LXs have the same springs. I've never done a 97 Cruiser so I couldn't compare them to the LX springs.
