Listed to fit the Toyota FJ Cruiser GSJ15/GSJ15R wagon (4.0L V6), the RAW 4x4 PR539S-1696 is a Predator-series shock absorber — the heavier-duty option for the corner its -1696 suffix marks.

Why the Predator-series damper?

The PR539S-1696 is part of RAW's Predator line, positioned above the standard gas shock for vehicles that carry weight and cover long distances off-road. Where a worn or undersized damper can't keep a loaded FJ Cruiser settled, a heavier-duty unit holds composure better. On a touring-spec 4.0L V6 wagon, it's the considered step when control under load is the priority.

Identifying the -1696 corner

RAW codes its dampers with a length/position suffix; -1696 marks this Predator unit within the FJ Cruiser GSJ15/GSJ15R range. We confirm whether you need it at the front or rear, and how many, before ordering so the axle pair matches.

Does it suit my Toyota FJ Cruiser?

It's listed to fit the Toyota FJ Cruiser GSJ15/GSJ15R wagon (4.0L V6). Suspension specs vary with prior modifications, so send your build and we'll verify the PR539S-1696 is right for your corner.

Fitting and supply through our Illawarra workshop

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

Ordering a price-pending Predator unit

RAW 4x4 has the PR539S-1696 as price-pending and doesn't publish a length or valving figure here, so we confirm those with the supplier rather than guess. We match the -1696 corner to your GSJ15/GSJ15R FJ Cruiser, check it against any prior modifications, and quote it as a special order once availability is confirmed. Pairing it with the opposite corner keeps the 4.0L V6 wagon settling evenly, and we'll price that for you.

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