Have an '89 4Runner (1st gen) w/ 1.5 BJ spacers and 26 mm torsion bar, Hard to say but w/ the t-bar tight, I'm prob around 2.5-3" lift w/ the spacers.
I ordered some Bilstein 5100s, ones speced here for "3-4" lift"
http://www.bilstein.com/suvs_5100.php
didn't receive them until yesterday (grrrr) and they are clearly way to long. Even at full droop, I cannot compress them enough by hand to fit into place - resting (at full droop) they look like they'd only have about 1/2 the potential travel at most, all of about 4-5 inches - would def top out on hard drops.
I can't find a 5100 series for less lift - aside from what is listed for 90-95 models as "torsoin bar lift" 2" - it's an odd model # and only available in yellow/blue (fugly). Is that it?
And the better question is - can anybody in NC get this thing or something similar by tomorrow when I come through for the 4x4Cross???
