About this part

M1 Loaded Strut Pair, fitment-checked

Rough Country 502013 is a pair of M1 monotube loaded struts for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner in 4WD and RWD form. It fits only vehicles already set up with 3 inches of lift, and it cannot be paired with a strut spacer. Digressive valving and a zinc-plated body handle changing terrain and road grime.

This M1 loaded strut pair for the 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner covers Base, SR5, and Limited trims in both 4WD and RWD. Each strut uses a 2-inch seamless extruded tube with a 46mm monotube body and 46mm digressive piston, an 18mm centerless-ground chromed rod, and vulcanized natural rubber bushings. Rebound and compression are handled by self-adjusting deflective discs. Confirm your truck runs 3 inches of lift and no strut spacer before ordering. Rough Country lists install time at 2-3 hours, and a downloadable installation guide is available.
