Nice job!
I hadn't heard of people using Tundra coils... what led you to that combination of suspension components in the front?
No rubbing with those tyres?

I bought the front coilover setup from Sonoran Steel in the states. People over there use them in their 3rd gen 4runners, height adjustable( 1-3.5inch), 51mm bore bilstein shocks with trd tundra coils (perfect spring rate) at a very reasonable price. Beats everything sold in australia thats for sure. If only they were stiffness adjustable though, would help with stability on the road with no swaybar.

Front tyres do rub abit, but with alittle inner guard modding, or somehow bringing the castor of the front wheels forward, i wont have any scrub issues. I havnt had time to try either yet but its not too bad anyway.

Nice to see another 95. I have the Sonoran Steel 1.2kit installed too. Sonoran Sell a poly air kit which looks reasonably priced aswell, Which i think I well eventually install. Glen_ep has also installed extra long sway bar links which would really help your prado from feeling like a boat. Which is on my to-do list as well.
