Not getting the height out of the 5100s at 1.75 setting.

Maybe someone can help me and point me in the right direction. Just installed the 5100s set at 1.75. Compared to another 4Runner (same model and year) post install and only picked up just over a inch in height. Kept the factory tire size and put 1 in cornfeds in the rear. I've double checked the settings and they're set on the 1.75 setting. I expected from everything I read on this setup was at least a 1.5 to 2 inch increase. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Can you post a photo of the shock and spring so we can tell you if it was done it right or wrong.

 

Here's the best I have without taking the wheel off again.

 

This one might be better

 

Can you get a closer shot of the spring perch and the grooves on the shock body? I think where the other poster is headed is that you put the snap ring on the wrong groove. Or get under there and tell us how many grooves are showing on the bottom side.

 

3rd from bottom. Only 1 left above the perch.

 

That would be the right one. Weird.

 

Do you have an aftermarket bumper, or winch? Any othe extra weight in front?

 

No sir and only has 20k miles so I doubt the springs are that weak.

 

Hmmm. That's really weird. I have no clue then.

 

I get confused as to what has been asked and answered, as you have 2 threads going dealing with the same issue.

 

If the spring perch were upside down, he'd have too much lift, not too little...plus, the photos confirm it is correct.

 

From your other thread - you confirmed the correct part numbers...was that from the boxes the struts came in, or from the actual numbers stamped on the struts?
