Just a quick question:
Will the GD6 shape leaf springs fit on my 2010 Vigo (3.0 D4D Double Cab 4x4) shape? I see them advertised every now and then so just wondering about the possibility of a cheaper solution to my problem for now...
Need to replace them but cannot afford a new set right now...
Advice will be appreciated

Re: Hilux Leaf springs
As far as I could tell the undercarriage is identical. They take the same shock absorbers, brake components, shackles and so on. On the very latest model (released now) the leaf springs were lengthened to soften the ride. So I am fairly certain that the "older" model's leaf springs will fit.

Re: Hilux Leaf springs
That sounds like good news, thanks.!
So must I look for a set up to 2019 model? Or do you know when they changed it?
