i'm planning on doing this lift. i can't wait, i'm just sitting here saving up some dough and doing my research here. so far so good! all my shocks are blown, so might as well add a little lift with the tundra coils if i'm going to have it all apart anyway and purchase new shocks! i plan on leaving the rear end stock. at 2 inches of lift, would the front sit slightly higher than the rear or just level it out?
thanks and yay!!!

Im think of pulling mine off, a year and a half with it, pretty happy but I never upgraded the rear shocks(wasnt sure what I needed) so doesnt ride near as well as she should.
BUT the main reason I am thinking of going back to stock is no one can align her, 10k miles tires shot, even went to a so called 4x4 shop locally lol what a joke. They said they couldnt align it due to my ecentrics were frozen(what ever they are) went and looked at all areas were adjustment could be made and saw they actually never attempted anything. Bolts were scuff free. In the end found out they had only had alignment rack for less than 2 weeks, friggin land rover snabs, I asked them to show me were they had attempted the work and got a total run around.
Then to top it off they said they could fix the mystery part( the one they couldnt identify) with dealer parts and @least 8 hours labor. They speacialize in rovers and actually had the nerve to say I wouldnt have a problem if I had a rover
So my rig is pulling hard to the right, and I am very close to going stock picking up another fj...not a 40 this time but a fj60.

Do you have the Tundra coils on the front, or some other lift?
edit: nevermind, just saw it in your sig.

I'm currently running a Daystar 2.5" lift using billy HD's. I just bought 95 LC front coils to go in the rear. I was wondering if I get get Tundra coils can I still use my Billy HD's????
