No,after 98 or 2000,depending on which country, all the 70 got coil springs on the front.

The 75 series became a 78 or 79,the 73 became a 74 and the 70 became a 71. I think the 77 became a 76.

Thats an unusual colour. I wonder if its a Toyota colour?

In Venezuela the switch from leafs on the front to coilsprings came in 2.002.

That color is available from the factory but it's a special color and it's quite rare to find a vehicle that has it.

Good information I dont think Ive seen it on an Australian landcruiser.
I think Landcriser Aust changed to coil front early to compete with the Nissan Patrol.

Could be, Ill try to find out what the color is called and perhaps also the code .

I realize the Venezuelan 70's are assembled in Venezuela. It would be interesting to know which of the drivetrain/body parts used DIDN'T come from Japan... besides the rear axle. Are the steel body parts manufactured in Venezuela?
