Toyota Prado 90 Series - 2" Dobinsons Lift & 33" MTs

[@dug5188]

Just a hint, move front sway bar links to rear axle and buy a set of KZN130 rear swaybar links for the front. This will even out both swaynars with 2" lift.

[@georgevalanidas320]

Looks great champion. Only problem I can see happening here is when truly off-roading you will have so much debris caught up around all your venerable components. There is a reason why there should be a gap between your tyres and sub frame. It looks great filling the space up with 33's though I would be considering all the circumstances before I spent big bucks on big tyres that belong on big trucks with even bigger spaces. Hope all things work out for you and you enjoy your vehicle to its fullest ability. Just remember looks is one thing and reliable is another. Take care enjoy your vids.

Love the look of this, just bought an identical one, would be keen to see more content from this!

[@lachlangill382]

Hey, you're the guy who bought the springs off me! Nice video mate! Leave the rear sway bar links standard, i put extended links in mine and the extra droop made me have to put taller springs in and now it needs a diff drop and adjustable upper control arms AND i had to remove my roof rack to fit under my roller door lol. Opened a can of worms there.

Hi team please send me the ref of the amortisseur please

Definitely on the cards! Thanks for watching x

[@DIYCarRepairs]

And thanks I watches videos for about 4 hours but no body has shown the 90 series prado rear shocks removal as its upper nuts not visible in this model car, you done it thanks, now I got some idea to change it but still thinking the spanner can go there or not as it very narrow space there .

[@maxellis9908]

Hey legend what offset are the rims?

[@LEBANNERED]

Just got myself a 1997 90series prado. Might need to get chopping myself

[@lahiwera]

Awesome, please share with us the details of offset you’re on.. seems most of the others are looking forward for your reply.. cheers mate 🍻

[@IsraelTangaroaBirch]

Looks great. Going to do this to mine. Cheers

[@wonder_creative]

Do you reckon you could get away with 32 inch wheels and no lift, looking to get the best of both worlds

[@stephentan6302]

Hi. I just fitted a 2" lift ( an OEM Brand ) on my Prado 95. The front is now higher than the rear by an inch. The mechanic said the reason for this was because he changed the front rubber mountings (I believe you called it a tophat) as they were worn. He said it will take a week or 2 for the coil to settle. When I first took it out of the shop yesterday the front was 2 inches taller than the back. He said the other way to ensure the back was higher was to change the tophat at the rear too. What are your thoughts?

[@acurrymuncher8459]

What were the tires, size and brand

[@generalcaeser9176]

I have a 1998 Prado 3.0L diesel. I wonder how this build would effect fuel economy and stability on the highway. Any thoughts?

Hey mate, I've also got to do the same seam bashing exercise and was wondering if I can hammer it in the opposite direction to what you did? Reason I want to do it the other way is so that I don't need to take the wheels off.

Hey mate! Honestly I’m not to sure if you’ll get the clearance but might be worth a shot!!

Had to put a spanner on the top nut and let it hold locked on the body . Its a tight squeeze. Then used a chain wrench that is used to unscrew engine oil filter on the shocker. One side bolt broke off. Its a painful job.
