Well, those of us that got'm now own an unsupported product. They haven't made them in 3 years, and the 675Lb/15" spring is no longer made and 100% out of stock.

Bummer.

They can get the 650lb/14" springs tho - but if you've got a winch bumper your'e SOL for a spring to carry the extra load.

yep, I ran into the same thing. Had to upgrade my 2.0's to the 2.5's with 14"/700 pounders to support the ARB+winch on my '05.

That seems odd to me. If you go to http://www.racerunnershocks.com/ and click products, you get the 2" with 675# for the Tacoma. Part #52000-185-5. You can't get that spring?

Mark,

You can have custom springs made but they will cost a little more. Deaver in Santa Ana or maybe National Spring in San Diego come to mind.

I'll bet Eibach or Hypercoil can get you whatever you need.

When I called Sway-A-Way the rep said the web site has been "inactive" for well over a year. They expect to have a new site up next year...

The Deaver custom coil might be an option. If the price isn't too nutty, I'd certainly consider that!

The 15" length is an odd ball - even Eibach doesn't carry them.

I anticipate "testing" the Donahoe Racing coilovers on the '05 Taco for a while this winter, and will probably upgrade to a set for the '98 this spring. I really like what I see of the Donahoe shocks - and will be installing them this weekend.
