    LX570 AHC height modifications (lift it!)

    I don't see how this will impact shock travel. If anything this would limit up travel. Since this is a strut spacer vs a spring preload spacer. You effectively made your shock/strut longer while keeping the travel length the same. This will have no impact on spring rate from how I see it. This...

    LX570 AHC height modifications (lift it!)

    In terms of engineering, there is no "correct" setting. Everything is a compromise. Lower ride height has it's benefits as far as on road handling etc. If you find that your usage is more geared towards being off road, then raising the vehicle is a good compromise.

    Lexus LX570 alignment problem & tires wear unevenly, please help!

    So you mean the rear axle shafts themselves are not in line left to right by design? And the axle as a whole has an engineered bend? This would have to be part of the diff housing then too right? If it is true, it's the first time I ever heard of it.

    Lexus LX570 alignment problem & tires wear unevenly, please help!

    Can someone explain how a live axle can have camber and toe that is not 0°? If one side is out the other must be in the same amount. I dont get it.

    1" wheel spacers issue LX 570

    For comparison here is the back of a 2008 wheel. As you can see the cut out gets closer to the hub ring leaving more room for the nut to protrude. So you might be just fine if you don't have 2013 wheels.

    1" wheel spacers issue LX 570

    I haven't taken the wheels off to take pictures yet since it's raining here. But here are some of the spacers and nuts. As you can see I just laid them on the spacer and they protrude just a bit. My 2013 wheels definitely don't have cut outs on the backside.

    1" wheel spacers issue LX 570

    They are quality billet aluminum hub centric spacers. It's just that the OEM studs are too long and 2 sets of lug nuts were included one of which protrudes past the face of the spacers. Instructions said I needed to use them on the front only. I will post pictures later today. Reasons: looks...

    1" wheel spacers issue LX 570

    I might do it later. I actually don't have any issue with the spacers or the nuts holding them on, (edit: front lug nuts were protruding but so we're the studs) everything was as tight as could be. They are not cheap. The are hub centric. The bolt protrusion wasn't much maybe 1/8 inch at most...

    1" wheel spacers issue LX 570

    I have had 1 inch spacers on my LX for over a year and didn't really have any issue that I could attribute to them. Recently I had a tire rotation and noticed a vibration. This is when I started to get worried. 1. I found that my wheel nuts were loose on all my wheels! What, how could that be...

    LX570 - jack lift points, stand points, jack height?

    Sorry I don't have actual number for you to use but the included bottle jack is sufficient to lift the truck from any point. If you wish take it out and extend it. For the rear axle yor only need to lift 2 inches after you touch the axle. Just enough to uncompress the tire sidewall. For the...
