Title: are all surfs independant on the front?
Post by: frosty on May 28, 2008, 13:29:07

  hi,
     
   im toying with buying a toyota, either a land cruiser from the mid nineties, an early twin cab hilux (so its got live axles front and rear) but ive heard that some early surfs have live front and rear.. is this true or are they all independant on the front?

   any advice would be great,

     cheers rob
