Hello gurus and not so much gurus of Scion life forum!

I was wondering if there is such option as no drop coilover kit with stiffer springs? Looking to get at least 250-300lbs spring rate front/rear.
The second option would be to find stiffer, stock height, coils and replace them along with better shocks.
I enjoy taking my xA trailblazing. I am slightly getting tired of scraping skid plates under my xA every time suspension bottoms out.
Yes, I have fabricated skid plates, covering brake/fuel lines, p/s hoses and both oil pans, just for that reason.
I would appreciate real inputs without starting flame throwing ordeal.

Thanks fellas!

tein can make you something custom, for your needs.

I believe there is a company that makes springs for coilovers.. I can't remember the name, but I'm pretty sure they would have something that would suit your needs.. I guess my other question would be.. why not just run stock springs or get a real 4x4 vehicle.. The xA is really not my first choice in an offroading platform..

Swift Springs USA.. Thats who makes springs of varying stiffness.. You could get coilovers and replace the springs with the spring rate you're looking for with them..

thanks for the hints.
Unfortunately no one has expressed interest in making stock height higher rate coils for "tuner" cars.

The only options I have either custom (expensive) coils or rally-sport coil overs (major $$) ...
Anyways, I will be looking.
Thanks...

You missed progress technology. They will make you a custom spec set, and have good customer support. Pretty much any coil over kit you purchase can be adjustable to stock ride height, I can tell you for certain Progress does. The production spring rates are 200 lb, rather tame. They will send you any rate you want though.

If you can find a spring from these guys that fits your needs, it will be higher quality than any of the springs mentioned on here already (not that progress are bad). They make springs for all sorts of performance applications, so they probably have what you need, especially if you start with a coilover setup that uses a semi standard spring diameter.

Ksport will make you custom spring rates, and their coilovers have some extreme height adjust-ability.

You could actually make the car ride a bit higher than stock if I recall correctly.

thanks fellas!
I've. decided to go TRD with some spacers on top of strut. it might require some fabrication but i have access to machine shop. so making strut spacers shouldn't be much trouble.
besides TRD among the best when comes to quality and it is OEM option for Yotas...

Coilover perches on rear stock springs might work.

That is the plan.
Thanks
