King Shocks

Hello boys and girls,

Im looking to uppgrade my 2015 PRADO's (150) original shocks to king shocks/springs and planning to purchase through http://downsouthmotorsports.com/ in the states. Now locating the shocks I want was the easy part, now what springs do I buy. Been trolling the forum for answers but havent found any exact answer.

Im wanting to lift the car 2" front and back but I'm not attaching any Bullbar or extra battery so just the standard wieght of the car just the website gives me the size/tension/diameter of the coil but not how much lift each coil would give me. Is there an easy answer to this? Living in the UAE and having it done here from the official King retailer would cost me approx 40% more and I'd rather spend that money on other equipment.

Cheers Mark

You could try comparing the specs to the ones already in the suspension database. If you have a link to the coils or post the specs I may be able to help.

I also see they sell complete lift packages for the 4Runner/FJ from ICON. Does the Prado share the same wheelbase/suspension as the 4Runner? Sorry for the obvious lack of knowledge on the subject but dealers aren't very helpful here unless you want to buy their overpriced kit...

Rear Coils (the support on their website said they didn't have any specific lift springs for the Prado but said these would perhaps fit)
