    Installed Dobinson's 1.75 Inch Variable Rate Suspension Kit: C59 - 222V, C59 223V

    9 month update. Suspension has settled a bit more, or maybe it was the weight from WKOR sliders, but the front is at 22.0 FL and 22.25FR. Still very happy with this setup. I held off on castor correction but about to pull the trigger on delta arms. I re-read this enitre thread, looks like folks...

    Thanks for the info! All I plan to use it for is adult and kids bikes, should be ok.

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Can you please share a link to the hitch? I don't have the factory tow hitch and have been looking for something that mounts to the bumper. Haven't found anything that seemed sturdy enough.

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Tackled the rear passenger side door to fix a very slow window. New runs, new regulator, new inner and outer weatherstrip trim pieces, not sure what they are called exactly. Added a butyl layer and closed cell foam while I was in there. Lubed up the tracks. After all that work the window is just...

    2” Lift Kit Recommendations?

    Search for the dobinsons 222/223 thread, very useful info there. That's what I went with, but at stock-ish weight you will not get the advertised 1.75" lift, it's more like 2-3". My experience has been great. Super comfortable with the 3 way adjustable shocks.

    Delta VS Radius Arms

    Thanks for the advice! Not trying to open up a can of worms, will probably play it safe and order the 2" arms.

    Delta VS Radius Arms

    This is the final piece I need to complete my suspension. I am measuring about 22.5 up front, and -0.8 caster after the 222/223 lift. I did reach out to delta but got no response. 2" arms will put me at +2.7 (additional 3.5 degrees), and the 3" arms will put me at +4.5 (additional 5.3...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Thanks! The 80 actually "belongs" to my son, I'm just preserving it for him. Maybe I should look into another LC for her..

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Moving on to interior work. Only thing that hasn't been replaced drivetrain/chassis wise are U joints, front control arms (need deltas), body mounts, and probably 4.56 gears someday, SC, etc etc. Will need a second car seat pretty soon, so I was test fitting and noticed the rear drivers side...

    Whose done the new Magnuson Super Charger

    I've been considering this as well, ever since I went to 35s on factory gearing. Been on a few trips fully loaded with gear, and the lack of power is just annoying. Around town though I can live with it. Is the driving experience similar to a stock 100 series? Or would I need to regear in...

    Stuffing 35” tires

    Lift or no lift, you will have to do very minor trimming, or increase bump stop height for 35s if you want to actually use them off pavement. I am very happy with my setup. Comfortable on and off road with the adjustable MRA shocks. Dobinsons 222/223, advertised as a 1.75" lift, got me close to...

    Media Official 35" and under!! Post pictures!!

    More nomad arvos 16x8 -12 315 Toyos Dobinsons 222/223 with remote resi MRAs, resulted in about 2.5"-ish of lift. Screenshots from a video, probably at max articulation.

    Power Antenna Mast Replacement 97 fjz-80

    Bumping this old thread instead of starting a new one. The mast on my 97 will go up partially then grinds to a stop. I can get it to extend all the way if I manually pull on it while someone else presses the UP button, still grinds but not as bad. I have a new mast and tried replacing it...
