Old Man Emu Front Coil Springs in Black with 500 lbf/in Spring Rate and 375 mm Free Height for 1st-Gen Tacoma (1998–2004) - Pair

Engineered for vehicles that operate with additional front-end weight, Old Man Emu Front Coil Springs prioritize controlled suspension movement over excessive lift. The increased free height supports improved stance and load handling while maintaining predictable handling characteristics in daily driving and remote-area use.

Each coil is formed on computer-precision mandrels to ensure consistent geometry and repeatable spring rates. Double scragging during manufacturing reduces internal stress within the steel, helping the springs retain their designed height and performance over prolonged service life.

Constructed from X5K micro-alloyed spring steel, these coils are built to withstand repeated compression cycles and sustained loads. The material choice enhances fatigue resistance, ensuring reliable performance under the weight of bumpers, winches, and travel equipment.

Rather than focusing solely on ride height increase, the spring design emphasizes balanced damping response and vehicle stability. When paired with matching Old Man Emu shock absorbers, the result is a cohesive suspension system with improved comfort, control, and confidence across varied terrain.

A hard-wearing black powder coat protects the springs against corrosion, abrasion, and environmental exposure. This finish preserves structural integrity and appearance through long-term use in harsh conditions, including moisture, dust, and temperature extremes.
