Nice truck. What springs # did you use? Does it handle better now, than before? Sit level?

Nice looking truck.
coil front spring back. Very Nice
I have the same car... the stock leaf is way to too stiff, was there a dramatic difference to ride comfort when you did the change?
Another way to get a move comfortable ride is to remove one or two leaf springs... this would reduce ride height true?

Yes ,but you could re arch the remaining leaves to offset the loss. Ive heard this works well but the springs dont last as long as normal.
Unfortunately where i live (Kuwait) we lack the expertise to do such custom work... The problem is i am very happy with the current height of the car but the ride is just to stiff, would there be leaf springs ready to order that are softer and not effect the current height?
Is your vehicle relatively new? They do take some time to soften up.
Try some hard driving with a full load in the back.
Dobinson make springs that give a soft ride and maintain standard height,I have them on the front my 75 series.
I have West Coast heavy duty springs on the back which are very hard and need 500kg to get a nice ride
I wish Toyota would bring the new shorty 70 series to Australia, instead of that silly looking soft new Prado swb. One of these with the 4.5 TD would be simply awesome.
So my eyes were not playing tricks on me. Its a real shocker
