I have a new never used set of 4" Downey springs that are going on my 79 fj40. I am intending on putting a set of Bilstein shocks with this setup...

    Looking for approximately 2.5 inches of lift for mostly city driving with a couple trips a year down to Moab. Originally planing on going for the Old Man Emu 2.5 inch kit but the further I dig in the more concern I have about the quality of the dampers. Not ragging on them by any means but...

    Largest tires on stock rims after a bilstein 5100 leveling lift?

    My 2009 GX470 has 17 x 7.5 stock rims, and is getting a "leveling lift" with new bilsteins. I need to replace the tires and would like to go larger, and was wondering how large I could go with the stock rims? Thanks!!

    Another Suspension Question

    So my Cruiser rides really rough. I understand its not going to ride like a Cadillac, but I have to imagine it could be better. I'm guessing it has a 2" lift, but I haven't tried to verify that. There are no discernible markings on the springs. The shocks are Rancho 5113 in front and 5116 in...

    Cruiser lean with new stock height springs and shocks

    I searched the forums and didn't see anyone with this issue on an 80 series. The shocks (Bilstein) and springs (OME) are brand new, but I never noticed any lean with OEM shocks/springs. Any ideas what the issue could be or how I could correct it?

    School me on bilstein 5100 shock upgrade

    So my 03 TRD need shocks. And I have been searching the Bilstein 5100s. It seems like a great way to go. Especially if you want a little lift without any major modifications. I've looked at a few sites like bilsteiinlifts.com, but I think I can do better buying individual parts on my own. I plan...
