    LX 470/LC100 first-hand experience: Kings vs AHC (soft setting)?

    I live in my truck full-time, I also wheel it all over the country. It's curb weight is just north of 7,000 lb. I have front and rear steel w/ winch, sliders and skids. I still have and use the AHC system but I was having difficulty going into high mode even with the King springs and new globes...

    Switched from Group 24 to 27 Battery - Alternator Mods?

    I love this group, I have been running a group 31 AGM for 3 years now and always thought my voltage was a bit low at 13.8ish, just ordered the cruiser patch fix.

    Who wants upgraded AHC torsion bars?

    Just to put in my $.02 in, I have upgraded my AHC 2006 LC to non-AHC T-bars and springs. I live out of my truck for long periods of times and my curb weight often rubs up against 7k lbs. When I am loaded up at full weight the ride is great, my AHC pressure specs are within margin and I had...

    Finish AHC Setup?

    This is good advice. Torsion bars and springs can be found cheap in junk yards if you can find a 100 series/470.

    Seal up sunroof?

    I have read your commentary on this issue on several other posts and took it into consideration as I have had my windshield replaced, however it was done with a Toyota windshield and I watched the whole process as I was very concerned about it. In my particular case, I can pour a small amount...

    Seal up sunroof?

    I was just coming here to search for this and it was the top post. I am considering this as well as opposed to tearing apart the drivers side of my interior in an attempt to find and fix where the leak is occurring. When I pour water in the drain, it will come out of the bottom of the frame...

    Which Alternator - April 2020 Edition

    2 years ago I bought a Autotech alternator, it took a s*** on me a year later on Marathon Key and wound up costing me a pretty penny. Next I tried BNR, it failed a year later in Big Bend National Park, also not a cheap fix. Now I run a Singer alternator installed based on some recommendations...

    2nd row delete sleeping platform

    Well I agree, I guess that depends on how short of a refrigerator I can find.

    2nd row delete sleeping platform

    Has anyone seen a set-up that is 2nd row delete, with a platform and the fridge fits under the platform where the 2nd row seat previously lived? This fall I'm going to start the process of converting my single person live in cruiser to a double person live in cruiser. My plan is to remove...

    King ktrs-79

    I mentioned this on some other threads, but as the weight of my truck approached 7000 lbs fully loaded the king springs and AHC torsion bars just we're not cutting it. I was over pressure on my globes and under stress, like when I was wheeling, the AHC system would fail and drop me back down to...

    Coil springs for AHC

    You're going to need to adjust your order, the ahc springs are significantly weaker than the standard springs.

    Coil springs for AHC

    I live in my Land Cruiser full-time, when I was building it for this purpose I did it with an eye on the Max Gross Weight, which is approximately 7,000 lb. I discovered that at this weight my pressures were way too high. Even with King Springs and 30mm Slee spacers, so I replaced the globes...
