Amazing work, and major thanks for the detailed writeup. Have always wanted this and put it off since it didn't seem possible. Do the rock lights come on when unlocking from the keyfob? The dome lights come on then for about 30 seconds. Would love to have them come on for unlock, door/liftgate...

Fixed my KDSS lean, with the simplest fix that I had assumed my Cruiser shop would have avoided. The usual Dobinsons/OME "Driver's Side/Passenger Side" label mixup on the springs for the Australian RHD cruisers was the culprit. Swapped the left and right rear springs and it sits perfectly level...

Yessir. In other news, a friend was looking at purchasing the exact skinny 35" tire size I have (285/75R18), which leads me to wonder if I should capitalize on the opportunity to sell the set and go up in size once more. Since fitting these wasn't too much of a hassle, it's got me feeling...

Interesting, looks like these guys in Russia have managed to fit 37's with what looks to be low-offset wheels, factory arms, KDSS, stock bumpers (good amount of chopping): Can't tell if a body lift like by @MTKID has been done.

So I have these power steps: Land Cruiser 200 Electric Side Steps: E-Boards - Running Boards - Tyrant 4x4 - https://tyrant4x4.com.au/product/eboard-retractable-power-steps-to-suit-toyota-landcruiser-200/ I believe they attach to the body not the chassis frame rails, per the manual...

Same thing happens to me too - anyone have an idea? Don't think it's wheel well related, the drops sound large and slow like pings on metal/glass, not correlating with the speed of the wheels. It also sounds like it's coming from the top of the doors/roof.

Bought it for $561 during one of the 25% off Toyota Parts sales

Not necessarily an issue, but comes with the territory. You will need to do a good amount of chopping and trimming as detailed throughout the thread. If running 35's like myself, I would recommend some good bump stops as well.

Was $561 during one of the 25% off parts specials last year.

Installed the Heritage Edition 45100-60760-C5. The Bronze stitching is a nice pairing with the Terra leather. Also coated it with Colourlock Leather Shield, which is specifically intended for the protection of new leather against abrasion and friction - which seems like the exact use case for...

Would love to hear your thoughts after running it for a while. Did you need extended brake lines? Does this actually fix KDSS lean?

Is there any way to remove just the full-size spare/5th TPMS from the system entirely?

Leveled it out a bit more, changed rear springs from C59-535 to C59-559V, and added Dobinsons PS59-4032 1/4" coil spacers in the front. Unloaded, it reduces rear lift by about 0.5" and increases front lift by 0.5". Still itching for more lift overall, though. The LC200 platform's geometry is a...
