TOY: Re: Bump stop distance




> Could someone with either a stock '84-'85 truck or one with a known amount
of lift tell me what their distance from the top of the leaf spring at the
axle to
> the bottom of the frame rail (not the bump stop pad) is with the truck at
normal ride height ?
> I've killed one RS 5000 and it looks like the RF spring is settling, so
it's time to cure multiple front suspension problems.

>From the top of the spring as close to the center as I can get to the frame
itself, I measured 3-1/2" on the right and 3-7/8" left. This is a stock '85
4Runner. I'm sure the springs have sagged a little over the last 15 years,
the left side is flat and the right has slight negative arch.
