Best Shock absorbers for Toyota Hilux
My 2008 RWD Petrol SR5 has 365XXX on it. All it's had replaced is the shockers.
Personally I run the ultra heavy (500kg) shocks by Tough Dog, but I would recommend the adjustable mid duty for your application, again a little bit pricey, but you can adjust to your liking.
Can't speak for profender on Jimny but tried it on my Hilux. I got a rebound adjustable with bypass, it was stiff but definitelt made the Hilix handle better.
Add new Ironman shocks.
