Hi, is time to replace shocks, I've found one month used four shocks and springs from a 2016 prado for 500.00 US dollars, checked the parts references, there is a change on the number for 2011 and 2014 -later models, the only difference between diesel and 2.7 petrol are front springs (heavier engine weight). Could them be interchangeable?, the difference probably is just setup not shape, I drove a 2015 model and felt tighter compared to mine softer suspension. What do you think?

The only difference would be spring rates, otherwise it should all be the same.

2014 Model had revised dampers and wheel alignment spec, this translated to better road feel and handling.[CENTER][B]-=2014 GXL D4D Auto Graphite, Firestone Airbags, ARB/Optima D34 Dual Battery, ARB UVP, TJM Airtech Snorkel[/B][B]=-[/B]
