        2 Bonnet GAS Struts Toyota Landcruiser Prado 02 09 120 Series Front Damper KIT | eBay

        It Just wasn't Election day at my house i decided to tackle the Struts i bought a pair off Ebay $20 and some post brackets at Bunnings It was a bit of work but being a Carpenter it was pretty easy as long as you have a 4'' grinder and a Jigsaw and a drill and a file

          Impressive outcome; however, not being particularly handy at fabricating metal, I think buying the ready made item was the right choice for me. Well done though.

                      Sell them ian. Yours look great and they probably sent them surface mail, so it serves them right.
