Rear coil spring recall, setting the record straight...
Assuming they meant 3rd gen's...not sure though.
TOYOTA:
So there you have it guys. Direct from Toyota. I know many of us have been told different things about the recall, so, if your recall falls within a one-year time frame, and was done incorrectly, you are eligible for them to make it right, free.
FYI.
TOYOTA:
"On vehicles eligible for the rear coil spring recall...
4WD: Replace both bump stops, both rear coil springs
2WD: Only the bump stops"
4WD: Replace both bump stops, both rear coil springs
2WD: Only the bump stops"
FYI.

wow....
So, If I'm THINKING correct (i've got to look at the reciept for the work) - ONLY the springs were replaced on my '98...NOT the bump stops. Does this mean what I think it means? REDO?

They replaced both my coils and bumpstops on both my and my roommate's 2wd 4Runners My coils were sagging pretty badly so that might be why they replaced them too, but I don't know about my roommate's.

Nah I was stupid and didn't realize it said right below that the factory paid for it or something. My dad didn't even remember if he spent 284 bucks or not lol.
