    I replaced a set of Lovells in the rear with HD Kings and while great for a load when on a trip, I find there free length is too short and come loose at full articulation when off road. Raised will be different to standard and HD different again, spring rates and free height are the questions I would be asking if you use your Prado off road.

    No serious off roading for me on the odd bush track and sand for me.

    My kids love going through bush tracks and going to the beach so that is about it!

    I got front and rear for a touch under $260 so can't complain don't think i will have the vehicle long enough to warrant a second replacement but you never know

    Kings and Dobinsons get the same wrap. My kings are superb.

    started a topic King Springs??

    King Springs??

    Hey fellas just wondering about King Springs.

    I'm looking at putting a standard set of springs in the old girl and was going to get a set of Dobinsons springs but they have no stock. Can get a set of Kings and was wondering if they are as good as there lowered springs.

    Constructive criticism welcome
