    im not sure, find out the diameter of the springs.. if i had to guess, i would say they probably have a diameter closer to that of a 3rd gen 4runner, which is smaller than the diameter of our 2nd gen springs

    I'm just seeing this thread. The factory FJ-C coils give you about a 2-1/2" net lift. Combined with a 1" 4Crawler Balljoint spacer it is a nice mid lift. The one's I have are not meant for uber-flex if that is what your hope is for along with lift netting articulation. They're meant for solid handling being paramount whether loaded or not.

    When we travel there's usually around 250-300lbs of gear in back and the ride stays level and compliant. Around town and on the freeway without the load it's tight handling and immediately responsive without excessive body roll as I am still running my sway bars front and rear. I like them, so I guess that counts somehow.

    The brake lspv riser bracket you'll need to fab is slightly smaller than the one for the 80 series coils by 1/2" and you'll still need to have the lspv bracket adjusted for proper line pressure to happen.
