Is anyone running an adjustable draglink or custom pitman arm to make the steering happen?
I replaced my worn out rears up front with OME front springs CS009FA/B I also used their Greasable shackles (3.5").
The rear old man emu's (CS009R & CS010R) are 43" eye-to-eye with the springs unloaded or 48" following the curve of the top leaf.
What is your front spring eye to center pin measurement? I'm tired of building leaf packs from 200,000 mile leafs. LOL I keep bendine the pass side pack. I did a sos swap on my '86 4Runner and want to make sure I won't move my front end back any more. With 42's I can't affored any fire wall clearence issues. Also what is the total lenth of the springs? Thanks.
What bushings do these springs use? Can you use the stock size bushings? Truck looks Good!
Switch them around b on drivers side, a on passenger side.My springs were A on drivers B on passenger.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Thanks for the pic. Nice looking rig!With the springs you used the axle is in the stock location it looks like, right? Have they settled at all? I have a heavy bumper and winch up front and want to stay as low as possible. I'm thinking the rears would be a little longer, but not so arched so high steer might be a bit more work. I like how yours sits though, I have a 3" lift in the back already so it would be about level.
Bringing back a golden oldie!I'm gathering parts for an axle swap on a 86 4runner and am leaning towards the ome cs009/10 springs. Who has ran em that is still around? H8pvmnt I'd love to hear any updates/more info if you read this.It's not going to be a crawler, just a dd/camping rig.I was debating going with the old man emu 84-85 front springs (cs009fa/b) for a basic lift, but if I'm going to do the work of swapping the axle why not move it forward a little? I have read way to many "only going to be on 33's" comments in threads like this so my thinking is to add a little extra in and not have to redo it later.This was the top page on the Google search so if figured I'd bring it back up.
