Don't need compressors on a prado, the front struts can be disassembled in the vehicle safe as. Someone better than me will post a link to a post on how to do it im sure. Basically undo the lower control arm from the ball joint and use a jack under the control arm to compress the spring in place on the strut.

Sounds like a good idea. Hope they post a link before sat morning. I Guess the top assembly stays attached to the car. Just undo nut that holds piston rod. Might have a look under bonnet tonight when I get home

Front done. Straight of the jack measured a 75mm increase. Before 725mm After 800mm I'm sure it will drop a bit.

Thought I better update my build page a bit.
Fitted some Bushskinz bash plates. The OE Foil was a bit busted up.


Very happy with the choice to with bushskinz. They are a bit on the heavy side but thats what you get with 4mm steel. Most of the others are only 3mm.
I would buy them again if I needed to
