im just looking to buy the top hat itself. is that possible for me to buy parts?
i dont need whole set up since im building my own set up
im also going to PM you

After the first round of coilovers are complete i can order a set of just the bracket's. The order we have right now is for the full setup's. I will get with you on a prices when we put in the next order.

Thanks Amy

Not likely.

The 4Runner front suspension is very different.

You would have to do what I did to make it work. The top mount for the XR will not fit the 4R.

What did you end up doing? Top hat from Chaos? I know that the 6lug top hat holes are a few mm off from the 5lug top hats. I know cuz I tried shoving TRD billys up inside my 5lug strut towers...... would have worked if I drilled the top hat holes out.... thank god I didn.

Ah.. ok will the rest?

What do you mean by the rest. You are already going to have a huge height deficiency as the lug suspension is what 2-3 inches higher than 5lug. The bottom mount should work though.

What I PM'd you about was not for the 6 lug. Dimensions are different.

I could swear that I already PM'd you everything you needed to know to make a set work on yours? Besides that, let's move this conversation to your build thread. :top:

Been receiving the "off the shelf" stuff for the coilovers for you guys. Figured we should put together what we can while we wait for the machinist to work his magic on the "custom" parts. :blurock:

Figured I should post a little update. Not much of one, but it progress, nonetheless. :top:

Just another teaser. We made a surprise visit to the machinist today. Not only did we catch him in the act of working... but he was actually working on our coilover parts. What whaaaaaat.

Can't wait to get these parts to the shop so we can start kitting these up for you guys.

Stay tuned

Glad they made it safe and sound. :top:

Progress? :dontknow:

Dude...you must be the most impatient, patient person ever. LOL.

New teaser. While Mad Mike has been going crazy on the machine work, I have been in the shop making brake line brackets. It's all fun and games, until you have to make 30 of them. LOL

Going to New York tomorrow for a few days. We should have a call from the machinist by the time we get in town. :blurock:
