    Odd issue with 06 LC sputtering out after 40+ mile drives

    The only work I've had done is on the suspension. I had an OME lift installed. The engine didn't overheat per the guages on the dash but i suppose it's possible. Why would that happen in traffic or stopped over on the freeway? Is it because it's getting more air at the higher speed? I'm...

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    Not sure. The axles were making a clicking / tapping noise and the LC expert said it was triggered by the suspension issues.

    Odd issue with 06 LC sputtering out after 40+ mile drives

    I've searched around and don't see anything quite like what is happening with my 2006 LC. For some odd reason, after driving 50+ highway miles driving ~70-80 mph then briefly stopping in city traffic (e.g., at a stoplight), he engine sputters out and shuts off. This has happened twice. The...

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    The differential drop kit and dialing down the rake 3/16 of an inch made a huge improvement. Unfortunately, not having the diff drop kit ruined the axles so between installing the kit and replacing the axles, I was out another $2500. Trying to reconcile the issues with 4WP now....will revert...

    Installing the front diff drop and adjusting the rake is exactly what the TX Cruiser Man just recommended. Thanks for your help!

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    Ba Based on my experience I’d stay away from 4WP. They’ve been difficult to get straight answers from since the work was performed and I paid in full. For example, they broke TPMS devices and asked me to get it repaired at Discount Tire but aren’t forthright in how they’ll reimburse me. Aside...

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    After several failed attempts via phone and e-mail to get the alignment sheet, I finally went by 4WP to get it. The specs are foreign to me! Any help is much appreciated! Thank you all

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    I measured and it's right at 21.5". I'm going to take it over to the TX Cruiser Man Mike at Dajda's in North Richland Hills to have him take a look. The ride is poor and the guys at 4WP are a mess to work with as I can't get a straight answer out of them.

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    I just posted the equipment installed because you have me thinking the lift kit wasn't installed properly. if we drop the body 1-2" then i'd expect we're back to where we were without the lift. am i missing something?

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    This is very helpful. Thanks for your response. I attached a full list of all the parts i had installed. I know this sounds bad, but i'm worried they (1) didn't install everything as listed and/or (2) didn't configure the equipment (e.g., torsion bars) properly based on the feedback here...

    Agreed on the pulling, that's why I didn't engage in disputing the sales reps perspective...clearly it was completely made up.

    Old Man Emu Lift + Acceleration Vibration

    Hi everyone - I recently had a load of work done on my ‘06 LC at 4 Wheel Parts in Dallas and have noticed the (1) ride is rough, (2) there is a vibration when accelerating between 30-40 mph and (3) it feels like I’ve lost some power. Here’s what I had done recently: - added front ARB Bull...

    OME 1.5" lift vs spacers, other alternatives

    Thanks for your feedback. What was the issue or downside you saw with the spacers? Does the beefier setup ride smoothly or is it really rough? i agree w/the comment above that i really like the OEM cushy ride.

    OME 1.5" lift vs spacers, other alternatives

    Is the ride going to go to hell w/the spacers or will it be negligible to the normal person like me? i was quoted ~$500 for parts and another $400-500 for labor. I guess what i'm getting at is, am i better off going with this setup and saving ~$2000 or the OME kit? Thank you!
