1992 Hiace front shocks

[IH8Domestic]

Hi there

I need a shock or two for the front of my 92 Hiace with the TEMS suspension. Someone just replaced them as part of the purchase agreement, but one broke in less than 1000k. I'm convinced they are too short, based on the noise I hear when I go over potholes. A tremendous thunk and terrible bounce.
Can anyone give me some specs for ordering front shocks.

thanks very much

You can get them in from overseas. I have used this seller and they were good.SHOCK ABSORBERS KYB TOYOTA: RZH & LH100 HIACE 89- (F) - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 22-May-08 14:28:17 AEST).

Otherwise I would see a suspension expert and get the travel of your springs measured and see if they can match it up.

This forum is actually for 90 series Prado
