05 Donahoe Coilover help?

[MattKoch]

So I recently inherited a set of used donahoe CO and factory leafs of a 05 qc sb TRD tacoma and really don't know what I should do with them. I have a 2000 tacoma that id be stoked to throw the Donahoe's on there but I'm pretty sure they won't work. Then there's the second problem.... One of the Coils is broken on one of the shocks. What do you all think my best option is with this stuff? I really appreciate the help!

I have ICONs(DR) on my 2000 Tacoma. They don't look like that. The bottom portion under the coils is to long. I would sell them. Either as is or have ICON rebuild them and then sell. Eibach sells coils and you could just buy new ones and replace them.

I guess you should measure them first and check your truck. But IMO they're still worth money.

The leafs.. I dunno.

Thanks! so you can buy coils from eibach that would fit the DR's ? my timing on the leafs couldn't have been worse with the recall hahaha oh well I'm curious to how off the centering pin is from the 1st gen trucks. They really appear to be the exact same springs except for the centering pin.

Send them to Icon and pay the $ for a rebuild and then sell them. You'll make money on the deal.

 

[MattKoch]

Thanks! You think the payout would be quit a bit better than just selling them as is?

They're about $1000-2000 new so depending on what you paid.....?

If the were rebuilt and looked clean I might pay as much as 700 for a used pair. (?)
