carl0s Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Yes you can fit them. They are probably the same part but I am not sure. The springs are certainly different though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 if youve got a bit extra to spend go for some kyb agx shocks (set) using your existing springs, it will transform the handling no end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bromy Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I have just replaced both my rears on the N/A, got them from here http://www.buypartsby.co.uk/shock-absorbers-toyota.php bottom part number 551070/070 £112 delivered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 The UK suspension, totally fits on a J-Spec! The springs are softer on the UK, but everything bolts up in the same place. I only have one hand, so cant type a quick how to for you, but do a search as there is plenty of instructions on how to change the shocks easily!
