Remember, 2nd gen Runners without flares can run 32-33's stock.

Yep, I'm just educatin' . I put coil spring spacers on my junk last weekend, and while I probably could have wrangled them in without a spring compressor, it sure was a lot easier with one. Cost me $0 to rent from Advance Auto.

It was one of those jobs where, halfway through, I wished I had just paid somebody $50 to put them in. It took me a couple of hours in the driveway, where it would have taken someone with a lift about 15 minutes.

it cost me $92.76 for les schwab to do it wrong...

and all the greedy S.O.B.'s who live round me wouldn't let me rent for free.

I wonder how much it costs to have them do it right . That's not a bad price, actually, I would have paid about that.

None at all, SDORI makes a great product, well worth the $75. I only have about 200 miles on them so far, but they are rock solid and I can't tell they're there (aside from the obvious lift).

I drove over them with the truck when I got them and they weren't at all affected.
