color code on front coils - TundraTalk.net

chocka100 · 03-29-2008, 03:06 PM

Hi everybody,first post,been doing drivebys on this site for a few mos. Got a 2007 sr5 dc loaded . Ran across a toyota bilstein shock and coil set on ebay.
The prob is the coils are color coded ,assuming one color for dr side and other for pass side. Which I don't have a clue,googled turned up nothing or any help,
I live in venice,fl which is like exile on main st,nothing.
Hoping someone on this forum would be familer with the color codes on the trd or toyota bilstien set ups.
The colors are one coil has grey and green dots and the other has grey and pink.
thanks

I'm sorry I have no idea. I'm sure one of these 4x4 guys can possibly answer this.

This excerpt was taken from rmjdrift ' s topgunz leveling kit install , it might help !

(pay attention to how it was removed, the shock has stripes painted on it to remind you that those stripes face to the outside of the Truck, blue on the Drivers Side and Yellow on the Passenger Side).

when I bought my lowering kit Tom at Tundra Racing told me the paint was to tell you which was the drivers side spring as the drivers side springs are stiffer. he said this was cause most times there is no passenger in a vehicle and they want it to ride level. I had never heard of that before.
