What coil's for rear coil conversion on hilux?

Post by Timmeh »

Hi all, I am currently in the process of doing a rear coil conversion on the rear of my 93 single cab ute using the rear a-frame set-up out of a rangie, and was wondering wat coils are good to use for this to get as much articulation as possible? And any hint's on way's to improve the range rover/hilux set-up would be muchly appreciated.

It seems as if a few have used the original rangie coils.

I used pathfinder. They're 130 pound and about 2-3" longer than the equivalent rangie (disco front) although otherwise pretty identical.

They work fine for me ;)
