    Like the title says, I am looking for some front coil springs for my 77.

    If anybody has any springs that will fit let me know. I really need to get this thing off the ground.

    I'm also willing to trade my cut springs for some stock ones. So before you cut up your pristine parts, give me a shout.

    Early Tacoma springs work too,with a very slight modification.

    Got a link or anything? Maybe even a hint? Kind of hard to search for.

    go to a junk yard and find similar diameter and thickness springs, cut to fit. prolly be a bit stiffer then stock.

    I use to have a 78'. My friend gave me his old drop springs from his 98-99 Taco. The only thing I had to do is chop the mini coil off one end and they drop in just like factory, same diameter and eveything. They gave me about 1.5 - 2" drop. I Hope this helps.
