no. They are two narrow and lengths, are wrong. Maybe could use IFS rears in the rear with a 3-4'' longer shackle and some kind of spacers to make up the 10mm less width.

Front use 75 series front spring
Rear use 60 series rear spring

you can use the 60 series rear in the front and it will move the axle forwad if you want to fit bigger rubber.

Here are some pics of IFS hilux rears in a middy with 2'' shackles, didnt work. Needed longer shackles.

Other pics are of mine with the same springs front and rear (60 series OME)
