The RAW 4x4 G6539-1696 is a nitrogen-gas shock absorber listed to fit the Toyota FJ Cruiser GSJ15/GSJ15R wagon (4.0L V6), with the -1696 suffix marking which corner it suits.

What the G6539-1696 replaces

This nitrogen-gas-charged damper is built for the GSJ15/GSJ15R FJ Cruiser wagon with the 4.0L V6. The gas charge keeps the oil consistent and limits aeration, which is what a worn factory shock has lost — you feel it as a vague, floaty ride. The G6539-1696 returns controlled damping to the corner its suffix covers without changing how the wagon was designed to ride.

Pinning the -1696 position

RAW codes its dampers with a length/position suffix; -1696 identifies this one in the FJ Cruiser GSJ15/GSJ15R range. We confirm whether you need a front or rear unit, and the quantity, before ordering so the axle pair is matched.

Does it suit my Toyota FJ Cruiser?

It's listed to fit the Toyota FJ Cruiser GSJ15/GSJ15R wagon (4.0L V6). Earlier suspension work can affect what's correct, so send your build and we'll verify the G6539-1696 before ordering.

Fitting at our Illawarra workshop

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits RAW 4x4 dampers in-house, checking mounts and bushes and replacing shocks in pairs across an axle for even settling. RAW 4x4 lists this line as price-pending, so we quote it as a special order.

Ordering the G6539-1696

Because RAW 4x4 has the G6539-1696 as price-pending with no published length or valving detail, we work from the part number and confirm the spec with the supplier rather than estimate it. We match the -1696 corner to your GSJ15/GSJ15R FJ Cruiser, check it against any earlier suspension work, and provide a firm special-order price once stock is confirmed. Replacing both sides of the axle together keeps the V6 wagon's ride even.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
