I recently changed out my standard fit Ford Ranger rear shocks with Ironman Foamcell Pro (comfort valved). The differences is noticeable and it’s a better suspension than it was before. I’m considering the front shocks will be changed to Ironman Foamcell pro in the future….
Thank you!
I watched this excellent video, and then had you guys build my coil overs!
Super Video mate 👌👌
Thanks!
Great tips
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful!
Love how to hold your baby spring 😂
I like this guy! He’s a funny guy!
Great instructional video 👍👍
Thanks!
Awesome video! You have the best installation video for these 4Runner suspension components
Thank you! Hope you found it helpful.
Nice video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Be safe and be blessed!
thank you, for the informative vid... I've watched a lot of vids and yours are very helpful.
Thank you!
Good to see the Australian flag
would appreciate the link for the adjustment Guide. thanks great vid!
No problem, here you go. store-pusehjx.mybigcommerce.com/content/shock_fitting%20_instructions.pdf
Great video, thanks for making this. Can the collars be adjusted while on the vehicle? If so, what is the right way to do it? I need to bump one corner up half an inch but, being an amateur, I don't want to spend a whole day uninstalling and disassembling the coil over. It's the 200 series land cruiser FCP shock with heavy 600lb springs.
I had the same question.
if we order prebuild will it be set at 3in?
Hi Mr. Ironman, great explanation. I would liike to know which type you recomemded use for 2001 lx470 and where i can got it. I am in Jakarta Indonesia. Thank you
It depends on you intended use of the vehicle. Foam Cell Pro is nice because it can handle everything you throw at it and is fully rebuildable. I would reach out to your local Ironman 4x4 dealer for their best advice.
Can you guys do a video on adjusting the height on the coilovers? I bought a complete 2" lift for my Land Cruiser and upon installing the lift I ended up with almost 4" lift.
Reach out to our customer service team and they can talk you through the process. 855-476-5714
What is right spring seat height for 22 tacoma heavy spring? It says 2.5 lift but I'm only getting 1.5"
Can you guys give the link on how to set the seat height on these bad boys? Can’t find it on line.
Reach out to our customer service team and they will send it to you. ironman4x4america.com/
Im getting the 3" foam cell pro kit for my tacoma. I will be adding a 125lb bumper soon Ironman advised me that i can adjust the coilovers for the added weight.. but i dont know how much to adjust them? I would like to do so before they are installed but do i just need to wait until i add the bumper to readjust them to compensate for the added weight?
You can set them for the 3" of lift. Then before you install the suspension kit park the truck on level ground and measure from the center of each wheel up to the bottom edge of the fender. Do this for all 4 corners and record the measurements. Then install the suspension kit, drive it around a bit, and remeasure to compare the data. With the bumper and winch installed in the front evaluate the two measurement sets to decide if the front needs to be adjusted or not. Hope this helps!
@@Ironman4x4America That does help. Thank you!
Hey where’s the guide for setting the spring seat on a foam cell pro stage 3 kit?
Good question. I wanna know also. Seems like they do not check their youtube channel.
@@rhonbriones2286 I have found one on their website. Id recommend you do the same or email technical/customer support
What spanner wrench are you using? Don't see that on your site. If you don't sell any what is the pin size/diameter that works with these collars? I about destroyed my knuckles using a set pin that snapped when trying to loosen the lock collar.
Hi Michael, Take a look at the ISHOCKTOOL001 found here: ironman4x4america.com/foam-cell-pro-adjustment-and-service-tool/
@@Ironman4x4America is that tool included with the suspension kits?
@@TrevorWagner_ME Our shock service tool is not included with the kit but can be purchased separately here ironman4x4america.com/foam-cell-pro-adjustment-and-service-tool/
Can we adjust the coilovers when it is installed in the tacoma or do we need to take it out and compress the coil to adjust the height of the coilovers?
With the coil-over on the vehicle it can be done but you are fighting the weight of the vehicle compressing the coil. It's much easier to pull it out and make the adjustment on the bench.
Was the 8 1/2 was set up for 3” lift?
@@Ironman4x4America what is the measurements for just a 2 inch lift on the Tacoma
Do the Ironmans come pre set for max height.....is that 2 1/2 " or 3"
We set them according to the spring choice which depends on the vehicle and load. We do not set them at max height so there is more room for additional preload if desired.
I could not trust a shop to assemble a strut as thoroughly as this! I assume that they are assembled in this manner for the suspension kits you offer? With that awesome 3 year warranty...
Yes, if you choose the pre-built option then this is exactly how we go about it for you.
@@Ironman4x4America mine did not come like this, I had nicks and scratches on each of my coils and rubber isolater not set right. Everything else was in great quality but I’d recommend not doing there pre built kits cause I feel like they did absolutely nothing what they just showed here. If tape was used then I wouldn’t have my powder coat all dinged up. Now hope they fix this
@@bradgraham1152 Hi Brad, please reach out to our customer service team so they can help out with the issue. 971-264-9016
Can/how do you adjust ride height with the spring installed on the vehicle?
Bump
The instructions for my Tacoma foam cell pro kit doesn’t tell me where to set the spring seat at all…
Reach out to our customer service team and they can provide the spring seat guide document for you. 971-264-9016
Good tip on not using an impact wrench on the nylon nut. Never use them on nylocks. They will create too much heat and melt the nylon rendering it useless.
Went to Ironman HQ retail store in Sherwood, OR today. I bought the Foam Cell Pro front struts and Heavy Load springs for 2011 Tundra. I started to assemble them tonight... aaaaand the lower portion of the spring will not slide over the strut. It does not fit. The inside diameter of lower portion of the spring is smaller than the outside diameter of the strut.
I checked the part numbers and they are correct. Soooo... I go to the website and it says clearly in red letters that the heavy load springs... "NOTE: Only works with Foam Cell Shock, NOT Foam Cell Pro". The woman behind the counter failed to tell me that they won't work with the Foam Cell Pro struts before she went back and got the parts out of the warehouse. Now I have to spend another $30+ in fuel to drive back down there and get this resolved with the correct springs. Hopefully they will compensate me somehow for my time and fuel for having to drive down the twice because of their mistake. 🤷♂️
So sorry to hear about your coils, super frustrating. It sounds like you might have the incorrect coils as our TOY063C heavy Tundra front coils should fit the Foam Cell Pro struts. The TOY070C Heavy front coils are for the Foam Cell struts. I would reach out to our customer service team so we can get you the correct coils. 855-476-5714
@@Ironman4x4America Yes I went to the website and discovered for myself that she should.have given me the TOYO63C instead of the TOYO70C. I will be going back in Tuesday after work (in traffic). I'm hoping you will make it right for my inconvenience.
@@tribunation Save yourself a trip in traffic and time and call our customer service team so we can get you the correct coils. 855-476-5714
Why u said remote resovoir doest not suitabel
Are they made in China?
Our suspension components come from our factories all around the world ranging from Australia, Thailand, South Africa, Central America, and North America. This way we can more efficiently bring products to each market geo.
