    Hamilton Motor Company CarPlay kit

    I installed the Hamilton unit about 3 weeks ago in my 2019 and initially I initially had trouble with it, just me not knowing how it worked with Bluetooth. I called and they got on the phone with me and walked me through a few changes on Bluetooth settings and now works great now so far...

    Cabin Filter Change and the Recirculation Flap Issues FIXED

    I just bought this from @Oakleyguy and it arrived in about 4 days. Took me about 45 min to install with an few interruptions from the family. Really easy when you watch his detailed video. This is a great hack for this problem that shouldn’t happen. thanks again @Oakleyguy

    Want lift with OEM ride

    Has anyone had experience specifically with these two? Maybe a comparison. General Grabber AT 275 70 r18 SL rated Falken Wildpeak AT 285/65r18 SL rated after reading all the threads I think for me being primarily on road driving and not wanting to get new UCA and trim it’s in my best interest to...

    Want lift with OEM ride

    very interesting and good information appreciate the dialogue everyone. I’m kinda leaning towards the same tire as I have now (Toyo OC AT3) but in a 275 70r17. It’ll be e rated but only 10# more than my 285 60R18 XL also with higher sidewall and I can air it down. May have slightly rougher...

    Want lift with OEM ride

    So it sounds like the weight of the tire has less to do with the ride quality vs. the tire pressure and width provided they are the same rating? am I reading that correctly?

    Want lift with OEM ride

    @bloc question for you on tires…how much does the weight of a tire affect ride comfort. Example: if you were to take a 275/70R18 E rated tire filled to same pressure but one weighed 61lbs like Falken Wildpeak AT3 and one weighed 52 lbs like Tpho OC AT3 would they ride the same or one more or...

    Want lift with OEM ride

    Thanks for the reply. I've not even considered going up to a 34" tire but that looks fantastic. Question: Are the SPC UCA's required due to tire hitting stock UCA's? Sorry if that is a dumb question, just trying to learn. Also did you add spacers? Many thanks

    Want lift with OEM ride

    I'm not sure if this is the correct thread but it seemed like the most recent to share. I'm also more of a learner on this forum vs. poster but I've very much appreciated the amount of information that helped make my final decision. I also wanted a lift that did not require new UCA's etc. while...

    285 vs 275 vs 295 etc

    Looks great, I’m also getting ready to install the Dobs IMS kit as well and wanted to know if the ride felt the same on those two sizes. I’m debating btwn e and c rated in various sizes due to ride comfort.

    OEM Land Cruiser suspension & Heritage Land Cruiser suspension differences?

    I have a base 2019 and I’m looking to put HE rear springs as they are about 2” taller than my base with IMS Dobinson’s 1.4” coilovers on front to give me a slight all around lift while trying to maintain as much ride quality as possible. Based on what I’ve found out the HE edition comes with...

    New Tires & HE rear shocks & springs !

    I know the rear springs from the Heritage Edition are longer than the standard LC but are the rear shocks from the Heritage different or the same? I ask because I’m am also going to do this to get a little more lift in the rear w/o going with heavy springs. From what I understand the Heritage...

    Question on lifts

    Thanks for reply, I wish I had written this 3 weeks ago as I was up in your area and would have loved to see how it drives. IMO I believe that is the only way to get a really good idea of ride quality. I’ll reach out if I’m back up there. Thanks for the reply.
