Type: Surf / 4Runner
Model: RZN/VZN185
Year: 1996 - 2003
Suspension Type: Coil Spring Front / Coil Spring Rear
Front Lift: 20mm - 45mm Lift
Detail:
- Petrol Models
- Monotube Internal Reservoir Shock Absorber
- Adjustable Spring Seat
- These front struts are pre-assembled in our workshop and ready to go.
A 100mm Lift is achievable with extra components. A 100mm Lift will most likely NOT pass a NZ certification as this will decrease the suspension droop travel, it is up to the customer to set these any higher than a 75mm Lift.
Due to the limitations of this vehicles suspension when lifted to 75mm (3") the ride comfort will be affected. The vehicle will be much firmer than on factory suspension and if this is an issue we recommend sticking to a 50mm (2") lift. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss this further.

At AJF 4X4, we run a weekly order cycle process. We understand how important it is to get your gear quickly. We aim to dispatch all orders as fast as possible, with a target dispatch timeframe of 3–10 business days once your order has been processed.
-
Many items are built or ordered on an as-needed basis. For these products, your order will normally be dispatched within 1–2 business days after we receive stock from the manufacturer or supplier.
You will receive a separate notification when your order has shipped, including shipping and tracking details where available.
**For faster processing of your order, contact us directly at sales@ajf4x4.co.nz and make a bank deposit instead.
However, some products are shipped directly from our suppliers. While we work hard to keep our stock levels accurate, there are times when items sell out faster than expected or our suppliers run out before our website can update. In these cases, your order may be placed on backorder, which can sometimes take as long as eight to ten weeks to arrive depending on the product and supplier, or manufacturing.
These delays are outside of our control, and while we always do our best to keep customers informed, we strongly recommend contacting us before placing an order if you need an item urgently or by a specific date.
Please note that we do not offer refunds for change of mind, especially if the shipping policy has not been read prior to purchase. It is the customer’s responsibility to check availability and understand our terms before ordering.
If you call and we are unable to answer, please leave a message, as we are often busy in the workshop or assisting other customers. We will return your call as soon as possible.
Our team will always do everything we can to keep you updated and get your order to you as quickly as possible.
