Topic: 4runner rear sag

[toyJAYota]

Hey everyone,

I have a 4runner that I'm building and it has the common rear sag to it. I was thinking of trimming the rear fender since I can't afford new rear springs for a few months. Already has an add a leaf. Should I trim it or maybe use a 1 or two inch block to get more height until I can get new springs? I really don't want to use blocks. Here's a pic of my rig.



Cheers,
Jay

I made some longer shackles for my 4Runner.

[toyJAYota [OP]]

Yeah, I have some longer ones in the back.

[Tallchevy]

Get some blocks as a temp fix. I have 2" blocks under my 63's & don't have any problems.

yeah if you cut them you might regret it after you get your new springs,
easiest and cheapest is to make longer shackels.

[Tallchevy]

Put some smaller tires on if you have some.

[toyJAYota [OP]]

I just put those new crusher tires on last week.  I will probably just add some two inch blocks until I can get some new springs.

or take a leaf out of the front springs

or take a leaf out of the front springs

I think the problem is that the rear tires are rubbing the fenders

block are simple enough for a temp fix. maybe do 1" blocks, and then little longer shackles. that is where i am at right now with ranger springs

Are those aftermarket with an AAL or stock/AAL?

Yeah, The tires are rubbing a little. They are stock springs with AAL. I'll probably just block it for now. I will check that thread out crawlerdan. Thanks guys.

Why don't you add a few leaves out of a JY pack to lift it.

Thanks, I'll look into that. Any specific year?
