For those who may find this of interest, last week I decided to dissect an old globe. The findings were as expected with a rubber separator between the nitrogen and the AHC fluid. I was surprised at the housing thickness, 1/2” at the base. In my case there was no visible wear on the rubber...

I’ve had my vehicle for 5 years and the globes looked old then , however whenever I do the graduation check it’s always 14 and ride ok fluid pink . This can’t be normal surely

So I just saw a video about MB creating a jumping mode with their hydraulic suspension to free a vehicle from mud or sand. It just kind of hops itself out while the driver feathers the gas pedal. Has anyone tried hot rodding our suspension to mimic that effect?

Greetings fellow enthusiasts, Things have begun to go south on my '10 LX with ~95k Miles. A few weeks back I flushed my AHC with 0 initial problems, I followed the guides posted here including using the Metal can AHC Oil and I bled multiple times until the fluid from bleeders was perfectly...

Looking for a used working AHC pump and the cylindrical accumulator thingy on the DS frame rail. Thanks

First off I would like to sincerely thank all of those that have come before me providing excellent content for the all of the owners out there in the world to read and assist with problems. I purchased a 2004 LX470 during covid in 2021 and it has taken me two years to identify my AHC and VSC...

An affordable AHC globe: Stumbled upon it looking for other stuff. I have an 05 LC so no need for it, not sure if it's been posted before, but here it is..

Will my AHC system last longer if i do not use it often? For instance, i can decide to switch it off so that i only switch back on only if it is really necessary. Is this even a good idea?

Hiya, owner says the mechanic removed the AHC, and just let the springs do their thing. is this OK ? Seems a bit strange. We are going to look at the vehicle wednesday. I will drive it in all modes, down some bumpy roads, any advice on what to look ( listen/feel) for ? TIA. Hope it works out...

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...

I got a 1998 LX470 that I picked up as non running and it has been in the Low setting since I got it. I am planning on flushing the AHC system but before I do that, I wanna get opinions on what to do first. Currently, there seems to be barely, if any, AHC fluid in the reservoir. I came across...

Looking to see if anyone who swapped out their AHC for regular suspension would like to sell me their ECU.

Currently on the hunt for a 100 series and found one I like, but it seems to be having AHC troubles. I was curious if anyone has ran across this before? Here is what the owner is describing Originally the height control wasn't doing anything, but after leaving the car a few weeks it now goes...

I have LC Amazon 2002 (Diesel). i have driven since 2018, and it is in very good condition. Have had no major issues other than maintenance. Recently replaced "shocks absorbers" and all four globes since it was driving harshly. Since 2018, graduation test slowly reduced from around ten to...

There's a wake (like a squirt from a water jet) in the reservoir when going into high at the very end before the pump stops. AHC fluid is one graduation above min line in Normal. I assume this could cause air to enter in but wanted to check if it's normal before buying another can of fluid. I...

2019 LX 570 with 24,000 miles. I have experienced this more than 5 times in the last year alone where I'll come to a red light, come to a compete stop, with my foot on the brake the rear end of my truck will drop. There is no indication on any dash. I know for a fact it's dropping because feel...

Good evening I am currently camping in Colorado and noticed the ahc line above the rear axle leaking from corrosion. It’s the 48998-60010 p/n. The line has a foil wrap to protect from heat of exhaust below it. The rust was at the edge of the foil. Yesterday I towed a small camper here, now...

Hi guys, I went on a trip from Holland to Croatia, with a small detour to France. My cruiser is fully loaded with a rooftop tent, drawers, battery and luggage. The truck has stock suspension and AHC and was doing just fine until the first stop in France.. The 'low' button for the AHC never...

I installed the rear ARB 2862 and the AHC in 'N' does not "engage" due to lack of load/compression in the rear. Can this issue be resolved through Thechstream or their equivalents? Thanks

I was thinking about putting heavier duty springs and maybe airbags if needed, but I’d like to keep my AHC because it works perfectly. I want to put like a 350 to 400 pound dual sport motorcycle hitch mounted on the back and then I pull the whole thing with my class A bus. Was wondering if...
