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

    Hello! Question for anyone running Kings on their LX470/100 series, how does it compare to AHC? Specifically on the soft setting. I'm very fond of a smooth ride which the AHC offers even with globes that are on their way out and I was looking at alternatives that would give me something...

    AHC Fluid flush gone wrong...

    Hey Guys, Just bought a 2000 LX470 with 263K miles and wanted to baseline all the fluids.

    AHC fluid contaminated

    Was trying to put on stiffer springs for my 570, (which didn't work with the AHC because they were too stiff), and I had to scavenge a quart of AHC fluid from a dealer 100 miles away. Refilling resevoir and had this at the bottom. WTF!?

    LX570 AHC/suspension repair

    I have a 2013 LX570. One of the hydraulic lines on the AHC system burst with just 86,500 miles on the odometer. The dealer says this was due to rust and corrosion. To replace the line I was told that the body must come off the frame. Additionally they can not say if other parts need to be...

    Lift while keeping AHC and using diff drop?

    I love the AHC but also want to do a lift without stressing the CV axles. Would a lift using the diff drop, while keeping the original AHC work? I don't fully understand how the drivetrain is attached to the chassis - but thought I'd ask :) Thank you
