Thanks! Do they ride the same? I have the old boss and they feel too softly valved for my liking.

How do the alumas compare to the old ones?

I know this post is a month old, but maybe others will come looking for the same info. I don't think any 1st gen sequoias have true atrac, but not positive on that. My 01 does not have atrac. It has AWD and 4WD. It's AWD when in 4 high or 4 low and 4WD when in 4 lo and 1st gear. AWD is a...

I didn't even think of that, but it's a great option and much easier!

I want a solid axle LC for Moab and Colorado trails. My only hangup with the 80 series is the low power climbing the Colorado passes. Engine swaps are expensive and I have no way to do one. Would it be cheaper to SAS a 100 series?

Stock skid plate in good condition, not rust, just old. Also have transfer case skid but not the fibery one in the middle. $75

I sold my cruiser and never got around to installing these torsion bars. They were scratch and dents direct from Dobinson, bought on 2/28/23. I was going to touch up the few paint chips and happily still will if you want me to. These were $295 plus shipping, sell for $200 OBO. I'd rather not...

Has anybody found a way to lower the seat height of the LX470? I have it all the way down, but still have a portion of my vision blocked by the top of the windshield. Normal driving isn't bad, but I have to stop far back from stop lights so I can see them. Would a custom seat be an option?

I just installed my ASFIR skid plates a few months ago. In general start at the back and move your way forward. It's like huge lego pieces, not hard, but takes some finagling. Mine hit on the torsion bar bracket. I used washers as spacers at first, but eventually had to grind a bit off. I...

Did you bypass the Nakamichi amp?

Thanks!

I really want to put the new twin turbo v6 and 10 speed transmission in! (never will, but want to)

I'd take the money and then buy another one not in CA (or the west coast). I've seen quite a few in Denver lately for under $10k with right around 200k miles. If you have an emotional attachment to it and really just want to keep it, you can have the insurance cut you a check for repairs and...

Same for me. Use denso O2 sensors, same os OEM, but much cheaper.

Sorry if I misunderstood, but were you able to use the Toyota shocks with a 2" lift?
