Do we have any spring rates for the variable C59-223V? I have them and I'm starting to think they're way too cushy. Unloaded over our local speed humps I get a ton of unnecessary compression. (Stock shocks brand new while Icon refurb under consideration). I like the height but need more...

I can definitely look into shipping. As I recall the LC and LX have different length stock springs (due to AHC or whatever). I'll dig around for the part numbers of these (not only are LC/LX different, left and right are different length too). You might want to confirm these are what you for...

Coils: C59-223V ("C59-223V - 1.75" lift, 205-245LBF/in variable rate, with stock weight inc 3rd row seat, 2.0" without 3rd row. Closest equivalent to C59-169, but variable rate for more comfortable ride quality and low lift height (445/455mm free height, 205-245LB variable rate).") Hub to...

How did the stock shocks work out?

Interesting. Though I'm in Oregon so probably not helpful. I'm looking for something lighter and would go stock for a bit. Let me know if by some random chance you're on the west coast.

Time to clear out the basement. 1. Icon 2.5" Shock. Installed new in 2017, 60k miles. While perfectly functional, I wasn't sure if they needed rebuilt so put on stock. Out of laziness will probably stay stock for now. No leaks. Boots are ripped from the removal process. I have all the hardware...

I was going to ask, "wait, LX doesn't have kdss?" then promptly came across this thread. Not sure it tells me if the LX performs onroad like KDSS is supposed to but, it is a seemingly significant difference. Fwiw my 06 GX470 had KDSS and AHC, hence my confusion...

Thanks! My telematics question should have been, when did Toyota start using an outbound data connection in Land Cruisers? If at all in 200s. From this 2025 user manual they can phone home to daddy. I assumed 200s have it since my BMWs from years prior have it. Buried in the bmw coding there are...

Resurrecting a thread as solid as our trucks... I also have many questions from those choosing one over the other having seen the grass on the other side. I'm sold on more power, have experienced KDSS on a prior GX and have sunk a ton of money into the 100. Really I would love to be able to...

Oof. Sad.

I ended up throughly drying out the computer boxes under the passenger (right) front kick panel. It all went away. I might have pulled some of the modules out and dried inside the connections.

I should probably do some spring cleaning in December as well. In Eugene. I'm open to reasonable offers on all. I have: - Stock steering wheel (2006 Mexico spec) - Brand new, stock, non AHC rear springs for 2006 etc LC/LX (I had brief intentions to return to stock height) - Rear cargo drawers...

In Oregon it's been nice to have the "severe snow" rating (which the KO2 has but Defender and regular LTX do not). It's the minimum to not require chains in some cases. I'd go back to Defenders if they did. Here's what I looked like with 275/60-18 Defenders btw. I had just swapped rims with...

Thanks. I do need to try the SuperPros--even if they are super expensive. https://superpro-suspension.com/us/27mm-heavy-duty-non-adjustable-rear-4x4-sway-bar-kit-9995-rc0048r-27.html https://superpro-suspension.com/us/30mm-heavy-duty-non-adjustable-front-4x4-sway-bar-kit-9995-rc0048f-30.html

Following up years later with the specs (albeit ko3). Now I'm looking for something lighter, quicker on-road, maybe better in snow but still forest service road capable without looking ridiculously small.
