You guys are the best! 1 more question please.
My stock 93 V6 5-speed with the 31 inch tires. A slight sag is beginning in the rear. Will I improve my Runner by purchasing and installing the following? -- Bilstein Shocks, SwayAway Torsion Bars, and Performance Products 1 Inch Lift Springs. I don't want my Runner to look "radical", I just want improvements over the factory installed items. Are these 3 choices the right way to go and will I see an improvement with the ride on the highway and in town, and an improvement on offroad? Thank you very much you guys for your answers. I'm a newbie and am looking for all the help and advice I can find.

Hey,
Sorry I can't give you an expert opinion on this one. I just thought I'd say that I don't think you could ever go wrong buying Bilstein shocks. Mine are on their way so I'll give you my first-hand review of them when they are installed.
I'm sure the other guys here will give you better/more advice.

Scott, I'd go for the Downey HD coils like I have.
This is how you will sit with them on:

The Downey HD's are by far the most common of the aftermarket coils. Mine have not sagged a bit since they were put on spring of '99.
The shock alone will not cure your sag. Ya gotta change out the coils.
The Bil's or the Edelbrock's like I have are probably the two most primo shocks you can put on there.
I have no experience with the Bil's, only the Edelbrock's.
Unless you plan on putting a
bumper on like I have, I'd stick with the stock T bars you have and dial in a mild crank on them to match the rear after it comes up from sagging.
You might ride to rough from what I hear with the SAW 25mm T bars unless you have the weight like I do to.
