Mick n Sal
Fellow Listees,
I am in the market for some aftermarket coil springs to combat the "saggy-bum syndrome" on my '90 4runner. I have narrowed my choices down to King, Rancho, Dobinson, & Lovells. All are raised heavy duty. What are peoples experiences with these brands ?

Mick n Sal, Had Lovells on both '82 hilux D/Cab, and 84 L/cruiser, made an immense difference to ride quality. No longer had to carry an ice cream container for each daughter in back
seat.
Currently running Kings H/Duty on front of 80 series, and 79 series. Both seem OK. King Springs also supply Fulcrum and TJM. Have broken Lovell and Dobinson Coils on 80 and 79 series respectively. Hooroo...

Bob Y,
sorry to ask, but are you giving the Lovells the thumbs up or not?

M & S, Would endorse Lovells leaf springs, but felt shouldn't have broken front coil on 80 series, considering its use and age of springs. Maybe it was just a bad one? Hooroo...
