Discussion about the virtues of the 3.4 V6 found in 4runners, T100, Tacomas and Tundras.
Here are some mods I had done to the 4runner that were worth while:
Tokico Trekmaster Shocks, good for basic ride if the 4runner is not lifted. 1999 tall springs will work with these shocks. Will ride poorly with 906 springs unless heavily loaded down:
Rears: amzn.to/1B2Zcch
Front: amzn.to/1E4Fhfr
Old Man Emu ARB rear 906 springs, would probably be best with OME shocks, but I have no experience:
amzn.to/1BpnDWn
Front Bilsteins designed for 2000 Tundra, on lowest setting. You would need a Tundra spring isolator and 4runner top plate to run this shock with Tundra TRD springs:
amzn.to/1FJ4TAU
Tundra spring isolator if you are using tundra TRD springs:
amzn.to/1EUY5BH
Rear Bilsteins, which need ¾ inch shock bushing and taller bump stops (from Sonoran Steel, for example) to run correctly. Not running bump stops can destroy the shocks:
amzn.to/1wXakg6
This should be the right bushing, but check before you install and please report back if this is incorrect so that I can make the change here:
amzn.to/1BprZg3
That’s if you want to piece together a system. You would still want a track bar from Sonoran, as well as bumpstops if you want to run bilsteins, which rode like a dream. Then the brake lines too.
Honestly, the best option, in my opinion, is to get the Sonoran Steel 7.2:

By far, the best tires to go under these 4runners (great MPG, traction, very light, great handling):
amzn.to/1D3nSbD

I miss the 4runner!
