Don't look at Fox then

 

I'd go Dutch Koni solution before Fox. Don't even know if they have a setup

 

I thought Koni was zee Germans?
I had Koni on my Jetta. Great stuff

Internet has everything !

 

Bilstein German...Koni Nederlands

 

And there we go!

 

Find me an appropriate coil over and that will be my setup

 

Nothing for the front, just the rears. Go get some 5100 and reuse your stock coils, it'll be already upgrade from the ones your truck came with.

 

Already have 5100s under the rear. And I like the road handling of stock. So maybe stock springs all around with koni

 

They do for the front at least. P/N 88-1712 Body diameter is similar to Bilstein 6112, but it's a twin-tube shock, so the piston is way smaller.



The south pole record Tacoma ran them:

 

They are from Prado aka FJ Cruiser here, so I guess they fit?

Buy Once cry once. .... You get what you pay for when it comes to shock sets.

Especially for the rear... I never thought just changing the rears on my truck would have that dramatic of an effect. ...

The more you spend, the faster you can go on any given trail or road...

The stock sport shocks are only good on dead smooth roads. Other than that, they suck.

 

Stated earlier...5100 on rear and major improvement. Replaced hitachi cuz they were stiff. I like the stiff front end on stock on highway which is 96% of this trucks purpose. But I like the Koni message

 

My Cali raised ones I just got are close to 75 and they are heavy for one person. 90lbs seems like a lot.

 

Prado is more like the GX460, but yes they'll fit. Not necessarily any better than Bilstein 6112 or TRD Pro Foxes though.

 

H&r is German too

Koni and h&r are the top two for vw

 

Prado is land cruiser

 

So that means you'll prefer a digressive shock in the front. (Stock Hitachi's are digressive)

You'd LOVE the 8112's but would hate the price...

 

Not when your disposing a dismembered body
