Hi all
I have a 1993 KZJ71 Prado. i bought it with a lift kit fitted but i don't know how much eg 2 inch 3 inch etc.
I have since fitted a arb bull bar and a winch this has caused the front springs to sag quite badly and i would like to replace them with some heavier rated ones. Now here lies the problem i am unsure what height the lift is, there for cannot just replace the front springs in-case it is to high or to low. rear springs are fine and handle any weight i throw at them so was hoping to not replace them. does anybody have any info that might be able to help? can anybody maybe measure there trucks front ground to guard that might help? I am on 33s. Any help would be great. Cheers

Re: KZJ71 Sagging front springs
Have you considered a set of coil spring spacers instead?
If your current springs are up to the job but just too short now it may be a cheaper option.

Measure the gap between the tyre and gaurd.
tell us what they are.
then those with simalar set ups can advise on what they are running.
but just saying that the nose is down will not achieve much

Measure from the centre of the hub to the guard, that will eliminate any variances in tyre diameter.
