    hi, sir. Replacement spring for your 78series LC is rare since this model was not released locally. Your best alternative is to have your springs re-arched by a good machine shop temporarily while looking for a replacement. Your best bet are aftermarket springs from down under as they have almost complete set of springs of any series of Land Cruiser. Try these Aussie products: Ironman, Old Man Emu (OME), Dobinson's, Tough Dog. I prefer Aussie products for suspension of Japanese 4WD's as they are built and well engineered to stand against abuse. You can also check out 4x4 Philippines Online Forum (Powered by Invision Power Board) for pinoy 4WD enthusiasts

    cheers!

    I was also going to suggest Iron Man since they have a local distributor also. Upgrade na rin siya to the old springs.
