    Just purchased a 2003 V6 4WD 4Runner in great shape. Removing the x-reas and purchased Bilsteins 5100. Do I need to replace the front springs? No plans for major off-roading. Live in a cold climate where roads are salted. Thanks!

    depending on how many miles you have on it, you may want to freshen things up. Coils are cheap especially if they are stock replacements
