OME 2-2.5″ Rear Lift Heavy Duty Coils for 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner ARB 2891
ARB/OME 2-2.5″ Rear Lift Heavy Duty Coils for 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner (ARB 2891)
Old Man Emu (OME) 2891 heavy duty rear coil springs are engineered specifically for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner to support a constant rear load of about 660 lb while maintaining proper ride height, stability, and control on and off the pavement.
These coils are ideal for 3rd gen 4Runners running rear bumpers, swing-out tire carriers, drawer systems, roof-top tents, fridge setups, or other permanent cargo that keeps weight in the back full-time.
Key Features
- Designed for 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner (3rd generation) rear suspension.
- Approximate rear lift: 2.5–3” on a lightly loaded truck, around 2–2.5” with 600–660 lb of constant rear load.
- Heavy duty spring rate (approx. 210 lb/in), significantly firmer than the factory 4Runner rear coils (around 150 lb/in).
- Driver-side coil is slightly taller to help correct typical 4Runner driver-side lean (A/B marked coils).
- Manufactured from high-quality micro-alloyed spring steel for long-term durability.
- Computer-precision formed, double scragged, and shot-peened for consistent long-term performance.
- Durable black powder-coat finish for corrosion resistance.
- Improved load support, stability, and body control with heavy overland or towing setups.
- Works best with shocks tuned for 2–3” of rear lift.
- Alignment required after installation of any suspension lift components.
