info on a toyota

[tree_bashed_sammy]

i have a 89 toyota and cut all the ifs off of it and put the rear springs in the front and put 4 inch lift springs in the back well i was told that would lift the front but it didnt so was i suppose to put different year springs in the front or what?

im possibly lookin to have someone finish the front or redo it if its not right the guy i had doin it hasnt wanted to do any work to it in awhile and i wanna get out wheeling but i am i dumb ass when it comes to fabing stuff and figuring out how and where stuff goes when redoing stuff so if anyone would be interested in maybe the work i could bring it to u or take pics or whatever i need to do to get a possible estimate on what it might cost

Scott just recently completed a SAS on a 4 runner so I am sure he can help you.

A friend and Myself just recenlty comleted a SAS on his '91 Yota Truck. It was not that bad of a job for the mechanically inclined but it is time consuming. He bout the SAS kit from Trial Gear which included everything needed (almost) to complete the swap.

I think it depends on the motor, bumper, winch, etc.
Basically, the weight up front determines how well the rears up front will work. On my 90 4-runner with the V6, I used rears up front and added like 3 or 4 leafs from another rear pack. You have to cut and stagger the leafs. My leaf packs flex out great but are a bit thick. I need to lose a leaf somehow because the high steer (sky offroad) tie rod rubs the leaf when the steering is at full lock. Honestly I think I'm just going to order Trail Gear springs when I get around to it. Not too expensive and if you already have the spring hanger and shackle tubes welded on, then the trail gear springs would bolt right up.
