Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for ride quality, handling, and longevity of your suspension system. Toughdog front coil springs are available in multiple spring rates to accommodate varying constant loads — these are accessories permanently fitted to your vehicle such as bull bars, winches, heavy-duty front bumpers, dual battery systems, long-range fuel tanks, and upgraded steel or alloy trays. Important: Only select spring rates based on your constant load — occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers, or towing are not considered constant loads and should not influence your spring rate choice. Over-specifying your spring rate will result in a harsh, uncomfortable ride and may place excessive stress on other suspension components including bushes, shock absorbers, and chassis mounts. Common front-end accessories for the Prado 90/95 Series include steel bull bars (20-30kg), winches (30-40kg), aftermarket steel bumpers (40-60kg), dual battery systems (15-25kg), and upgraded lighting systems (5-10kg).
Professional installation by a qualified mechanic or experienced 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended for coil spring replacement. Installation requires specialised spring compressor tools, appropriate lifting equipment, and knowledge of suspension geometry and torque specifications. A full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting new coil springs to ensure correct steering geometry, prevent premature tyre wear, and maintain safe handling characteristics. Allow a 500km break-in period for springs to settle and reach their final ride height — minor height variations during this period are normal. For vehicles with significant lift or heavy constant loads, consider pairing these springs with upgraded control arms to restore correct caster and camber angles.

Yes, these Toughdog front coil springs are specifically engineered to fit both Toyota Prado 90 Series (1996-2002) and 95 Series (1996-2002) models equipped with front coil spring suspension. They are designed as direct replacements for the factory front coils and maintain compatibility with OEM and aftermarket shock absorbers. If you're unsure about your specific variant or have modified suspension components, our team can verify fitment based on your VIN or current suspension setup. Always confirm fitment details before ordering to ensure correct application.
The lift provided by these Toughdog front coil springs depends on your selected spring rate and your vehicle's current constant load. Typically, they are designed to restore factory ride height if your Prado has sagged over time, or provide 0-50mm of additional lift when paired with appropriate rear springs as part of a complete suspension upgrade. The primary purpose of these springs is to correct front-end sag caused by heavy accessories like bull bars and winches, rather than provide maximum lift. For specific lift heights based on your load configuration, contact our suspension experts who can recommend the optimal spring rate for your requirements.
This kit includes a pair (2 x springs) of Toughdog heavy-duty front coil springs manufactured from high-tensile spring steel with corrosion-resistant powder coat finish. The springs are sold as a front pair only — rear springs, shock absorbers, and other suspension components are sold separately. Spring isolators, top mounts, and fitting hardware are not included and should be reused from your existing suspension or purchased separately if replacement is required. Professional installation is recommended, and a four-wheel alignment is mandatory after fitment to ensure correct geometry and safe handling.
These front coil springs are designed to handle constant front-end accessory loads such as bull bars, winches, and heavy bumpers — they are not directly affected by towing loads, which primarily impact the rear suspension. However, maintaining correct front-end stance is essential for balanced handling and weight distribution when towing. For optimal towing performance, pair these front springs with appropriately rated rear springs or airbag suspension to manage variable rear loads and prevent rear-end sag. A properly balanced suspension system front and rear is critical for safe towing, improved stability, and reduced stress on your vehicle's drivetrain and braking systems.
Control arm upgrades are not mandatory when fitting these Toughdog front coil springs if you're restoring factory ride height or achieving minimal lift (under 50mm). However, if you're combining these springs with a complete lift kit or have added significant front-end weight, upgraded control arms with adjustable caster correction can help restore optimal steering geometry, improve on-road handling, and reduce tyre wear. Control arm upgrades become increasingly important as lift height increases beyond 50mm. Our suspension specialists can assess your specific setup and recommend whether control arm upgrades are necessary based on your lift height, driving style, and load configuration.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing new front coil springs on your Toyota Prado 90/95 Series. Replacing coil springs alters suspension geometry, ride height, and wheel alignment angles including caster, camber, and toe settings. Driving without proper alignment after spring installation can result in rapid and uneven tyre wear, poor handling characteristics, steering pull, and compromised vehicle safety. Professional alignment should be performed after installation and again after the 500km break-in period once the springs have fully settled to their final ride height. Always use a reputable alignment shop familiar with 4WD suspension systems.
Yes, Toughdog front coil springs for the Prado 90/95 Series are available in multiple spring rates to accommodate varying constant front-end loads. When ordering, you must select the spring rate that matches your current constant accessory load — such as bull bars, winches, dual batteries, and heavy-duty bumpers. It is critical to select only based on constant loads, not occasional loads like camping gear or passengers. Selecting an incorrectly rated spring (too heavy) will result in a harsh, uncomfortable ride and may damage other suspension components. Our team can help you calculate your constant load and recommend the correct spring rate for optimal performance and ride quality.
These Toughdog front coil springs may provide modest lift depending on your selected spring rate and load configuration, potentially allowing for slightly larger tyres than factory specification. However, tyre fitment is influenced by multiple factors including total lift height (front and rear combined), wheel offset, guard trimming, and suspension articulation. For the Prado 90/95 Series, a mild lift typically allows for tyres up to 31-32 inches without significant modifications, though this varies by specific model and suspension setup. Always test-fit tyres and check clearance at full lock and full suspension compression before committing to a larger tyre size to avoid rubbing on guards, control arms, or body components.
Toughdog coil springs are backed by the manufacturer's comprehensive warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and conditions. Warranty periods vary by component and application, so refer to your product documentation or contact our team for specific warranty terms applicable to your purchase. To maintain warranty coverage, professional installation is recommended, and you should retain proof of purchase and installation records. Warranty does not cover damage caused by incorrect installation, improper spring rate selection, overloading beyond rated capacity, or modifications to the suspension system. Our team is here to support warranty claims and technical inquiries throughout your ownership.
Absolutely — when correctly matched to your constant load, Toughdog front coil springs deliver excellent on-road comfort and handling for daily driving while providing the durability and load capacity needed for off-road touring. Toughdog engineers its springs to balance ride quality with performance, avoiding the overly harsh ride associated with incorrectly rated or budget-quality springs. These springs maintain compliant, controlled handling on sealed roads, highways, and urban environments while providing the strength needed for corrugated tracks and off-road adventures. The key to comfortable daily driving is selecting the correct spring rate for your actual constant load — not over-specifying based on occasional loads or future intentions.

The fitment was spot-on and they've handled everything from bulldust to rocky creek crossings without breaking a sweat.(5)
Best upgrade for my work Prado
Had these front coils fitted to my 95 Series about three months back and they've been brilliant for carting tools and materials around. The ride's way better than the old saggy stock springs, even when I'm fully loaded heading to remote sites. Fitment was spot on and they handle the occasional beach or dirt track run on the weekend without any dramas.(5)
Perfect Upgrade for Our Old Prado
Finally replaced the sagging factory springs on our '98 Prado and these Toughdog coils have made a massive difference. The front end sits level now even with the winch and bullbar fitted, and the ride quality on corrugated tracks is noticeably better than before. We've done a couple of trips up to the high country since installing them and the whole family has noticed how much more comfortable the drive is.(5)
