Sounds good. The EKR covers in my Nissan truck have a pocket on the front, but the 200LC ones don't. I wonder if that's something you could request? I honestly don't find them to be that useful, but maybe I'll consciously try employing them a...
Thanks, appreciate it!
At 270K miles, I needed the new setup. Feels like a new car.
Also I want to GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT to all the members on this thread, who have really helped me out with information, pics, PM. I really appreciate all of you.
So happy to be back in a 21 HE LC…. Had the Bilstein installed yesterday. Handles much better and love the look. I still have a rake of a half inch or so back to front…
I would say yes to Bilstein rear springs. It'll give you the best chance at having a cohesive suspension "system".
When major companies and OEMs tune suspensions, they take into things like the natural frequency of each axle. Then the ride...
I've used Marathon custom seat covers on my last 4 vehicles, and will be ordering them for my 200 as soon as i take possession of it.
Fit and finish are great (not perfect) but they are 100% customizable as far as colors and options.
One little...
I'd like to keep the driver's seat (heaviest wear) of my LC200 in tip-top shape for as long as possible. I'm thinking about using a seat cover to accomplish this. I know they look ghetto, but if I'm ever worried about that, I can just remove it...
Once again my 24 gallon LRA tank saved me $ on this weekend’s trip:
Out in the boonies while on interstate 15, fuel prices jumped a whopping $2 per gallon over a 60 mile stretch. But instead of having to fill up...I just transferred my 2nd tank...
Edit: I was going on a generic image of the MT64 series so we need to confirm with an actual 200-series application picture. /edit
In short the lack of an outer sleeve in the bushing around the post for support means forces are applied in ways...
$2.50! Best value ever.
Can you harvest the inner sleeve? It'll be a pain as the bushing is bonded. Could burn it out.
Core our the ARB bushing enough to press it in?
If you still have AHC and therefore sleeved rear shocks I think you are fine. That is a -much- stronger setup for the post than what ARB has done with the lower mounts.
But I’m just a guy on the internet…
Absolutely take this advice. This is your ticket to avoid any brittleness (not likely but might as well avoid) or cracking during cooling (also not all that likely but might as well avoid too). Throw a welding blanket or similar on top when...
Thank you for that. So to clarify you ordered the 1 inch lift for the back, but you got more?
You ordered 1.4 inches on the front but you got 2 inches?
Do you have a side photo of yours? From the angle you posted, almost looks perfect and no rake.
I get your frustrations, but please allow me to share some insight.
To be very transparent, BB makes less than 10% profit on a pair of 200 series sliders.
Raw materials are $700+ (no Chinese or Indian steel used). Each pair takes, on average...
Hey All
Getting closer to pulling the trigger on a 200 finally.
As any typical cruiserhead, i am already compiling the mods list.
Anyone tried new MT64 shocks from OME/ARB?
Search shows nothing...
Thanks
Next week I'm doing the DBA rotor + Hawk pad upgrade posted by @777Gage:
Upgrading brakes for more stopping power. - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/upgrading-brakes-for-more-stopping-power.1307753/post-14875638
I am also doing SLEE's stainless...
Maybe an unladen stock rig, but when putting these things to work with big tires, mods, and big payload / towing weights, I can assure you that the brakes do get a workout. Even stock at 6k lbs curb weight and 400HP, honestly it's not hard to...
My 2014 Tundra (slightly larger brakes than 200) with camper shell, and 500lbs of "stuff" ate OEM rotors every 20k-ish and warped BAD.
After DBA upgrade, zero issues in 50-55k miles.
NOTE: The new DBAs are slotted only, not drilled, but ive...
I'm not familiar with Ironman's but that's pretty incredible that it lifted 4"?
Is it possible you didn't torque the primary suspension links with the vehicle fully sitting on the ground? Don't want to torque the bushings with the suspension in...
