ive searched all over and can not find specs for the landcruiser trekmaster shocks alot of u guys are running in the rear. trying to decide if i want to go with them or just pick up some gabrials locally that measure 14.24 collapsed and 23.77 extended. id like to get as much travel as i can with these lx450 coils.
tokico trekmaster length?

I have them, but I dont know the length. I havent gotten a chance to go offroad yet, but from pics that Ive seen they travel pretty damn far. Especially with the sway bar removed

I think I remember reading the Tokico's have roughly the same compresses and extended lengths as the Tundra 5100's. The Tundra 5100's are Collapsed length (inches): 13.84
Extended length (inches): 22.4. I'm not positive on this and it is shorter than the Gabriel you are looking at.

why do u say that? because u have another brand? i ran gabrials on my tacoma for 3 years before switching to fox remote rezi's and barely felt a difference. im not hittin woops in this thing
stock landruiser shocks? um no thanks dont want 15 year old shocks on my rig. and if ur talking about landcruiser replacements the gabrials are stock replacements

I say this because I had some and they are a cheap replacement. They have a soft damping and if I hit a bump/dip on a curve, it was scary with the lack of control.
I returned them and bought Bilsteins.
As far as shock length. If you haven't/aren't going to extend the bumpstops (which I wouldn't do) compressed length is first priority. The compressed length should not exceed ~14.15" or the shock will bottom out before hitting the bumpstop.
