Hello! That title suggests I have some intelligence. Negative, I am a meat popsicle. My 80 series was totaled so I was forced to replace the giant void left in my soul from its loss. Having a toddler now I thought I could let go of some rock crawling ability and commit to my life as a family...

Hello all. I have a 2011 LX570 and I am looking at an AHC delete in favor of the 2" Ironman nitro gas kit. The "Stage 2" comes with Upper Control Arms, but my shop states I don't necessarily need to do these at this point. I am curious if anyone has an opinion on this issue (or experience with...

I've had my 2010 LX 570 for a couple of years. The ride was not always that great but it got progressively worse. I finally decided to replace the accumulators as DIY project. All look original and 3 of them had 0 diaphragm left. The pencil test goes all the way about 6 inches. It's...

Hey all! I recently picked up an '06 100 series and the AHC works fine but the rear shocks are shot. The truck has an ARB front bumper and a 4x4 Labs rear bumper with dual swing outs (spare tire & jerry can). So obviously heavier than stock. I like the idea of keeping the AHC working as I know...

Decided to go with the SSW Dakar 17x9 +0 5x150 Key notes: - BFG KO2 285/70R17 fit in the spare tire area - Sensor lift front and rear - Removed front mud flaps, plastic trim toward front of fender liner, relocated front fender liner further back, cut off front mud flap metal bracket, cut...

Forgive me for probably beating a dead horse here with this post, but I plan on giving my 06 LX a few new parts for looks and functionality when cruising some moderate trails. - Adding 240lbs total: front bumper (100 lbs), sliders (120lbs), and skid plate (20 lbs) - Removing about 100lbs: stock...

Seeing if anyone has any input on this issue. Rear suspension will not raise on 2002 lx470. When I try to raise it the front raises properly but the rear is sitting all the way on bump stops and not moving. Replaced the rear height sensor and no changes. The pump seems to be running fine, but...

hey guys, new to the cruisers and forums, just bought a new to me 2000 LX470 with 100k miles on it, and recently encountered an issue with the AHC, my front end is sagging and the ahc works intermittently, but when it does it still goes up to full height, i got techstream working and got the...

Thinking of ways to refill the globes on an lx470 and/or any ahc globe. The theory is that I can tap two holes for valves on each globe and therefore purge then refill the globes with nitrogen out of a rented nitrogen tank from any welding or gas supply shop. A quick search shows they store...

2001 LX470. Asking $14,900. Please contact (86four)-78o-3 forty-four 1. I purchased it in January 2021 at 148000 miles and have driven on average about 6000 miles per year, but less recently since I now have a second vehicle. I still drive 100-200 miles per month so I will update the mileage as...

Hey all! New member, first time post. This forum has been incredibly helpful so far with my new-to-me 2003 Lexus LX470 I won on Bring a Trailer. 250k miles but still runs smooth and most importantly for rust-belter's like me - it's a completely rust-free southern truck. I bought it to replace my...

Hey everyone, just picked up an ‘06 lx470 with 170K miles and I couldn’t be more excited. Biggest downside of the truck was that the AHC fluid was basically empty and the truck was essentially stuck on its bump stops with a very jarring ride quality. I’m not sure how long the suspension was...

Hey everyone, Hoping to learn from some of the more experienced folks here — I’m experienced enough with my rig to know when something feels different but when it comes to suspension systems, I am way out of my depth. I have a 2014 LX 570 with stock AHC (which I love), around 96k miles, and...

Hello friends, I bought an lx570 2 months ago, it was really bouncy but I thought it was a good deal. i have spent nights trying to find the issue, I read hundreds of posts but non of it works for me. My problem is with the rear suspension, it bounces on speed bumps if I go slow, slams hard if...

Hi - my 06 LX470 has 220k miles. The ride was really good and smooth. I installed the white knuckle sliders built specifically for the LX with AHC. Since installation the ride has become super rough. I feel all the imperfections in the road. It almost feels like I'm driving a toyota supra or...

so having replaced an AHC hose and shock im now dealing with an issue possibly electrical? there has previously been and error code for the rear ride height sensor. however i took that out and cleaned it. cleared the code on techstream and scanned a few times, it hasn't re appeared, so...

So having completed a replacement burst pipe I've now run into another problem the car refuses to pick itself back up. I know from running tech stream that the rear ride height sensor is throwing a DTC I plan to replace it at some point but getting the car drivable was then goal. No problem I...

Hi all new member and new owner of a beautiful 2006 100 series. So on the way back from a recent trip the front passenger side (UK car so left side) hose that connects the top of the shock to the accumulator burst where the hard-line connects to the soft. Front end dumped down to the bump...

I took my 2001 LX470 to the stealership for a full inspection, I'm new to this and feel comfortable in fixing what I can. They recommend typical things like replacing worn ball joints and a cv axle with torn/leaking boot. One of the things they said was to replace all 4 shocks. From what I've...
