  • Thumbs up to Zordo's Suspension.

    Have been a Pradopoint member since late 2015, and finally purchased a 2nd hand Prado in October last year. First job was to replace the Toyota / Repco suspension combination that was in it. I was fitting the suspension myself, but wasn't sure what to go with or who to purchase from. Have had ARB TJM & Coni's over the years in my old Landcruiser, but wanted to try something different. After much reading up on different combo's, and good reports here on Pradpoint, decided on 2" inch lift, Bilsteins with Dobinson coils from John at Zordo's. Due to circumstances beyond my control, the fitment and fine tuning stretched over 3 months! (Vehicle was out of action due to an unrelated issue. Then I was out of action for several weeks due to injury, then relatives up for a week at Christmas ect). Once fitted, I wasn't 100% happy with the ride height in the rear (sitting slightly high) and was simply going to purchase another set of rear coils. But John sent another set up at no cost, which allowed me to swap straight over with no down time, and then send the other set back.
    During this time, John was always happy to assist with help and advice, and answer any questions ect. I had, (One being an issue with the ESC after fitment) even over a 3 month period! But I've ended up with the suspension ride & height that I wanted.
    Sorry for the long winded post, but more often than not, a lot of businesses / retailers I have used these days seem keen to take your money, but after sales service is nil.
    Disclaimer - I am in no way associated with Zordo's Suspensions, just glad to get good service!

      First test drive, first low speed sweeping corner and the ESC activated, and pushed the vehicle to the outside of the corner, straight toward the Armco guard rail. Steering against the ESC trying to steer vehicle back down into the comer and the ESC switches off, causing the vehicle to pull down into the opposite lane. Steer back up and the ECS activates and off we go again. This all happens within a couple of seconds. (And we were NOT going too fast through the sweeping bends. Recommended speed limit was 60km/hr, we were doing about 50kms/hr. My 92 year old Grandmother would rail a car around there quicker! It will do it at all speeds in sweeping corners, even super-elevated ones, up to the 100km/hr speed limit).
      After thoroughly rechecking all the mechanicals and then the electrics with no luck, did the good old Pradopoint search and came up with the fix of getting the Steering and Yaw Sensor recalibrated at Toyota-

      Booked in next week for Steer & Yaw recal. Although they said at Toyota they've never heard of re-flashing the ECU to erase memory, as mentioned in post above. Will see how it goes.
      (Vehicle also has 265/70 profile tyres).
