I just did the AHCectomy on my 99 Lexus LX470. I love the new Ironman 4x4 Foam Cell Pro's My truck has 289K and still had the original AHC. It rides much better now, little body roll and never bottoms out. Here's my upgrade list: 1 - Ironman 4x4 Foam Cell Pro stage 1 kit 2 - SPC upper control...

Well, I managed to get this done. This is the Amazon link for the relay that worked for my 99. It seems like I nearly dis-located both shoulder blades and it looks like I got in a fight with a mountain lion on my back. I put a storage box along side my truck. I wiggled and wiggled my hand in...

I'm trying this on my 99, since I installed an Ironman front bumper and it came with LED turn signal.....this is more trouble than it's worth. My stupid fat hands cant even get to the relay. Is it any easier by removing the front panel/horizontal air vent box as was stated above? I don't care...

Man, this is a really nice system, but I'm in Texas :(

I wish I had some help doing mine!! I started mine Yesterday afternoon and just finished the drivers side. It's now closed and waiting 24hrs. Trying to adjust and push the panel inwards and tighten the stupid 7mm nut and 7mm bolt....I need 4 hands!! I will definitely get some help for the...

Be sure to use PLENTY of sealant around and IN all the bolt holes. I have the pioneer rack. I'd had my truck "stored" for a while with a cover on it. We'd had a bunch of rain and I when I checked on it, everything organic was covered in mildew. I spent the next 9 hours scrubbing, cleaning etc...

Hey everyone...I'm brand new to the forum! I recently ordered the aluminum set but have not started the project yet. A) I'm trying to figure out how to get the oem windows out. B) Is it necessary to remove the entire inside plastic panels that surround the windows? Some of the sections are...
