sorry if this is a repetitive question, but my 01 4 Runner seems to ride harsh and the steering is twitchy over rough surfaces. i just put new tires on it and had everything checked out. is there anything aftermarket to help soften it up?

First what tire pressure do you run? sometimes just running a little lower pressure helps or you can upgrade your coil springs and struts go with Old Man Emu for the coils(they are the only one's I know of) and the same or Bilstien's for the struts either will soften the ride for ya.

we've tried different tire pressures so i'm guessing that isn't it, were's the best place to get prices or info on the OME stuff?

Your steering issue could be a steering dampener or stabilizer as most ppl call it. It sounds like you are getting a slight bit of bump steer. Sometimes your steering box will loosen up some and need a slight adjusting to rid some free play that has aquired over time.

thanks, i will look into the stabilizer, not even sure if it has one. we haven't had the truck very long, so i'm not real familiar with it yet.
