i just bought a 89 2 door and it came with 3 inch lift using Pro Comp springs and lower arms and Rancho RS9000 shocks with wireless My RIDE controller which is kind of cool.. u get to adjust setting with a remote control

i am looking to replace the Rancho shocks with something more street friendly, something not as stiff ( my ride is 90% street driving other 10% light trailing )

what do u guys recommend?

another question... i am not really sure if i have a 3 inch lift.. how can i measure to make sure?

and who has the best deal on these bilstiens right now? do i need diff shocks for front and rear?

Xj88

The mounting is different for front and rear..so yes.
Serious offroad has a package deal on the 5100s where he just sells all 4.

Camry's ride crazy smooth, especially the late 90's models.

You've sure got some expensive looking parts, how much do you have in that lift?


Do you still have stock flares? if you do measure from the center of the wheel to the flare and tell us how many inches it is. Stock is 17" IIRC
