Thanks for the help everyone. Sway bar links was my first guess so I’ll try to get it up and have a look myself since the shop can’t find anything. Will give an update once I figure it out in case anyone else is having the same issue.

‘99 Lx470 has developed a noise that sounds like it’s coming from the front passenger side anytime I go over a bump, pull into a driveway, or go over a rough road at slow speeds—basically whenever the front right tire is moving up/down at slower speeds. It’s almost a loud click or knocking...

I cut the bump stops down to just the top portion (maybe 1-1.5”) per the instructions that came with the airbags. I could take them out but then I think there’d be a gap between the airbag and top at Normal height. Haven’t tried deflating completely yet and going to L.

I’ll report back in a few weeks of driving with 5psi in them. Since I won’t (can’t with spacers and bags) be going into low, perhaps they will hold this low pressure longer.

In that case I plan to deflate the bags completely, measure pressures with the new spacers and get them in spec, then inflate to ~5psi for normal driving and 20-30psi when towing.

Makes sense. I was hoping to use the spacers to bring rear neutral pressures down to spec and then airbags if I needed a bit more pressure reduction, but now this doesn’t sound possible since I won’t be able to measure pressure by going L—>N with the bags inflated + spacers.

Spent all day installing a set of Firestone airbags and 30mm spacers on the 99 LX470. Saw a lot of feedback about the Air Lift bags going through the bottom, so just turned the Firestone bags upside down and seems to work so far unless I’m missing something about why they would need to run out...

Thanks, but looking for a newer pair. Mine have 240k on them currently and would like to find a new or slightly used pair.

Looking for a pair of stock OEM rear springs for an LX470 with AHC. Would also consider a pair of King Springs. Located in SoCal or willing to ship. Thanks

Crawled underneath and found another connector unplugged coming off the same harness, again without any clear place it would connect.

Hi everyone, new to the forum and just picked up a 99 LX470. Working on all the baseline items and this forum has been an incredible resource. I had to replace the drivers side outer headlamp and when I took it off, I found this electrical connector not connected to anything. All the...
