Fair enough. Just cutting corners temporarily though until I can afford to get the other parts haha

But I need most of it? I can’t get away with just shocks and springs being upgraded? And how do I know which sway bar extension I need? I have no suspension knowledge at all

So I need all that stuff? I was hoping I could just get spring and shocks and maybe the steering damper to start hahaha, oh well I’ll just have to budget different to get the lift I guess

Looking into the dobinson 2” springs would you pair them with Dobinsons shocks (if so which ones)? I was considering pairing them with bilstein 5100. I have time before I’m going to get the suspension done as I need some other work done on the LX first, but it’ll be a potential next step so I’m...

Dead thread, but which Ironman kit is it? Foam cell or nitro gas?

Just a quick little thing I’m curious about. I’ve seen some people put their spares and air compressors and things in the back of their 80 rather than the removable seats, but usually that involves adding things to the car in order to hold the tire down. My question is does anyone have a setup...

I will look into that I’ve got a few options here to research thanks to these replies. Think OME is out, glad I asked around

That’s good to hear, I’ll definitely look more into iron man then, thanks!

I’m kind of looking at an IM Foam Cell Pro 2” kit right now tbh. Only plan to get 33s the biggest for now but I’m probably going to Stick with my current tires for a while before that change anyway. I didn’t mean under or around $1000-$1500 for my whole build obviously, just for my first ever...

Damn this is going to be a ride huh? I mostly want a hybrid daily/off-road build with a mild 2.5-3” lift. So ideally some decently comfortable ride quality, I’d rather not spend much over $1k if I can avoid it and I’d imagine for my first time, buying a kit would easier than individual...

Going to be honest I don’t know a ton about suspension, I’d just seen a lot of people tend to run OME and seemed to like it. Do you have a kit you’d suggest or is it better to not get a kit and put together suspension with different parts from different brands or something? I really don’t know...

I’m not currently dailying it but I plan to daily if or at least drive it a lot more once some of the priority stuff is fixed. I’m pretty torn on whether to just get the heavy load and see what happens until I get the added weight or to just get the medium load and see what I wanna do from...

Regular road driving and off-road?

Well the suspension is pretty s*** so it’s kind of higher on the list of things to get done. I’m not going to fix the suspension and then buy a lift kit which will replace most of the stuff I’d have just paid for. I have a few things that I probably need to deal with before suspension but it’s...

Hello, this is my first time posting in this forum so my apologies if this formatting or anything is incorrect. I plan on getting a OME 2.5” lift for my LX450 but I’m unsure whether to get heavy load springs or medium load springs. I don’t currently have a heavy bumper or winch, but I plan to...
