These were also the 1st Prado but were only called that in Japan at the time. Europe and S America know them as a Landcruiser II.
We tend to refer to them as Light Duty Landcruisers on this forum.
There are quite few differences other than the suspension ,for example the front is shorter by 4 inches and slopes down more sharply.
It also has smaller diffs and gearbox from a Hilux.
The only thing that is the same is the body from the windscreen back
Dobinsons and most of the other aussie suspension companies make something for the Bundeera.
I would give the Dobinsons a try they were the 1st to realise that the Bundeera suspension was lacking in flex and load carrying abilty.
They have coils that have a soft section for a light load and a stronger section that can handle a heavier load when needed.
Make sure you get the year right as Toyota changed the coil length in the their 2nd or 3rd year of sales.
