ahc delete

I am about to embark on what is likely to be a huge pain in the a$$ and will probably cost me a fortune. I cannot find any threads of anyone having to do this, so I figured I would start with an explanation of what I want to do, seek any input from you guys, and document the project for anyone...

I just got a 99 Lexus LX470 that had the Strutmasters hydraulic conversion kit (TF14F) before I got it. I noticed something off with the suspension and also I think the front is sagging a bit and after researching the problem I found that it is likely due to the original AHC torsion bars not...

I'm almost ready to push the buy button on an "ACH Delete" system and I really don't want to. For background I have worked on my AHC extensively and have already done the following things. 1. Replaced globes 2. Balanced AHC pressures by adjusting torsion bars and adding heavier rear springs...

Hi all- I'm considering an '05 LX 470 at a used dealer lot. Generally it's in good shape, strong records, etc., but hadn't gone through detail when I saw/drove it. But there are two items I'd like feedback on: 1) Seemingly random switchgear installed against driver right leg / left side of...

I’ve been able to successfully remove the AHC lines to each shock with the exception of the driver side rear. Also trying to figure out how to remove the pump (that’s what I assume it is?) and the supply line to the driver side rear shock. I’ve removed the two bolts along the bottom of the pump...

Hello all, thank you for welcoming me into the community. I have a 2007 LC with AHC and the rear middle AHC line seems to have sprung a leak. I am now weighing my options in regard to what to do next. I am leaning towards doing a standard suspension converse as I haven’t found a mechanic...

LOW MILES. AHC Delete. Super Clean and Pampered Condition. Exceptionally maintained and tastefully modified 2003 LX470. This LX470 has only 169k miles and has been completely baselined. She has always hailed from Central Texas so it has an exceptionally clean underside with no rust and no leaks...

I recently picked up a 2003 LX470. The previous owner had a Lexus dealer install the Strut Master AHC delete kit--at least I assume it is the whole kit--it has Strut Master shocks. I checked the torsion bars, and they are Old Man Emu. It has stock wheels and tires. This is my first truck. I...

Hello all, My 1st post here. I just bought a 2008 Lx570 with 173k miles. As soon as I got it I took it to the dealership for inspection. They tell.me all 4 struts are leakin..the 2 front are "level2" theb2 rear are "level3". I've been doing a ton of research on AHC and it's pros/cons. I am...

Firstly, apologies if this topic has been covered here, I've researched reasonably extensively and have not found an answer. please point me to it if I've missed it. I purchased a 2002 LX470 (200k mi) last year with an already deleted AHC, replaced with the strut masters kit. I know this is not...

I'm looking to rip out the AHC and get OEM 100-series components in. Any recommendations on shops in the Vancouver (or Lower Mainland) area that would be best for this? Thanks in advance!

Hey Everyone! I have a 03 LX470 and I've finally made the decision to take out my AHC and switch to a more standard suspension. The main reason was rust. After doing some research, I'm leaning towards getting Kings: 25001-259 / 25001-258 King Shocks for Toyota Land Cruiser 100 and Lexus LX470...

Ok, first post on this site. I (my dad) have a first-hand, dealership-bought 2000 LX470 with 113k miles on it, everything is all well and good until we get to a speed bump in the road, if I drive over it going anything above 10 miles per hour, the car bounces HARD and you can hear the front...

I just got my LX470 back after the LandCruiser suspension conversion--what a difference it makes, highly recommended. I have ZERO regrets about swapping out the AHC--it rides like a new vehicle. I need to thank SLEE for putting the parts together at a reasonable price and for taking the call...

Hi guys, Looking to do a AHC delete on my LX470. I wanted to get everyone's thoughts if they also made the transition. This is the kit I am thinking of getting from IM. Foam Cell Pro 2" Suspension Kit Suited for Toyota 100 Series Land Cruiser/Lexus LX470 - Stage 1 -...

My 98 LX 470 recently hit a 178K and I am seeing the early signs of another major haul for suspension. The front struts are beginning to sweat. If history repeats, the front accumulators will soon go and then the back struts and accumulators will follow. The last time the system went bad was...

Hello, I have an assortment of AHC parts I will be selling from two different vehicles. **ALL PARTS SOLD AS IS** 2000 LX470 with 185k miles -All Four AHC Globes (Getting 8-9 gradations, rough ride, probably need to be recharged) $50 for all four + Shipping -All Four Accumulator’s (the part the...

Same idea as the rest, here's the suspension videos.
