Need front springs/struts

Frustrated beyond belief right now.

Ordered and installed IronMan 4x4 lift and the rake was still very pronounced. Then I installed my winch and bumper which made it even worse. I realized that I ordered the medium weight springs for up to 110 lbs additional. I was going to re-order the heavier springs for 110-240 lbs but when I look at the specs for the heavier springs they have the exact same specs as the lighter springs.

I tried calling Ironman without success and sent them an email about my concerns. I have not heard anything back and I need to take care of this before wheeling season starts.

I'm assuming that the strut mount/spring perches on aftermarket and stock struts are the same and I can use another spring manufacturer such as OME or ICON etc and just keep my Ironman shock because I do like the ride but the rake is killing me.

 

For perspective, highly recommend classic 4Runner combo; I achieved about only a 1/4"-1/2" rake with an aftermarket setup of shocks, springs, SPC UCA's, rear coils. Perhaps you wanna give OME 2887 a look.
Bilstein shocks set on 0" spring seat, OME-884X 3" front lift springs, ICON 158506 2" rear coils.

Essentially just longer, larger diameter springs, same spring rate.

 

How many inches you lift front and rear?

 

Approx. 3/2

 

So you want it to be more level?

 

Ya level is good, unless I'm out to lunch

 

Thanks. I ordered the heavy 3" OME springs

 

@dallas121469 nice buddy! Np. Let us know down the road how it works out. My weight's going up and I'll need to upgrade my springs as well.
