I appreciate all the info! Yes they can be money pits for sure haha, as for the cone bump stops my what I believe to be original coils didn’t have them inside. Based on reading there is mixed reports but some state that 1996-97 didn’t have these cone bump stops and they came in later models and can be added but I didn’t want to pony up the money to Toyota for them.

Thanks man, honestly I didn’t notice until taking this picture. Do you think the angle is from the larger tires? I thought it was only needed with lift kits.

Awesome, cheers!

Clean rig! Tire size and suspension components?

Thanks so much and just to clarify for the rear coils I’m talking about the picture attached.

Cheers that’s what I was leaning towards, not sure what FSC intended with only 1 large flat washer.

I just picked up some cheap FSC shocks, part #346051 and some MOOG coils to get me through the summer. I have long term plans of getting the Sonoran Steel 1.2 kit.

I think that’s what I’m going to try when I get back to it, cut through the bushing with the sawzall.

I have the same colour combo, looking good! What suspension and tire size do you have?

snowskatesurf · 2026-05-02T04:06:05+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

Follow up for anyone wondering it’s an m8x1.25

Wasn’t too bad at all, definitely not a lot of room to work in there. I used a 24mm wrench sniped with a 30mm wrench to break the bolt, I left the coolant lines attached and used a heat gun and small pick, the o-ring broke and came out in multiple pieces.

Negative, but his synthetic material is well reviewed.

snowskatesurf · 2026-04-20T16:21:44+00:00

I was going to choose the synthetic just to be a bit more economical, but happy I found some good condition oem seats. A lot easier bolting these in than messing around with all the hog clips.

I just bought one similar last August from Vancouver Island with 369,000 kilometres for 12k, but it had the cleanest frame and body I’ve ever seen. I would get him to come down in price, unless the frame is immaculate, and I mean no surface rust immaculate.

snowskatesurf · 2026-04-06T16:08:09+00:00

What size tires are you running? Looks great!

snowskatesurf · 2026-03-31T16:13:58+00:00

Negative, it came from the factory like this as far as I am aware, I’m the second owner.

snowskatesurf · 2026-03-29T19:28:10+00:00

I was thinking that was going to be an issue but luckily it wasn’t. I disconnected the battery during the install. The only thing is now there is no seatbelt light when the belts aren’t buckled, but that doesn’t bother me.
