    Ball Stud For Hood Lift Strut

    Just bought aftermarket struts for the hood on my '92 model. These struts require that the OEM ball studs that screw into the hood be re-used and inserted into the new lift strut. The problem is that the old ball studs will not come out of the sockets of the old lift struts. Has anyone else...

    Just finished my OME lift install. Need help diagnosing new vibration

    Managed to install my OME medium lift a few months back. Took two days but it worked out great, with one exception. I now have a strange vibration that kicks in around 20 mph and goes away around 35-40. It does not seem to correlate to rpm's, but is exacerbated under acceleration. The vibration...

    Last-Minute "Stuff" for OME Suspension Lift

    I thought I'd post some information on last-minute parts I'm gathering in preparation for installing an OME suspension on my '86 FJ60 project vehicle. The vehicle is getting the axles and brakes from my '89 FJ62 donor vehicle, so I've got a rear sway bar and LSPV to deal with, along with other...

    Finally time to lift my LX470

    I've been following mud for a couple years now, and this past June I finally found a good deal on a 1998 LX470. It had a bouncy ride, but I figured I'd live with it until it was time to lift. The ride progressively got bouncier and bouncier. About 2 months ago, the AHC system finally failed and...

    Rear Suspension Question: Does a lift result in an offset rear axle?

    We've been replacing rear-end components damaged by a former owner to get the truck straight and level. After replacing a bent trailing arm and a leaking KDSS cylinder ($$$) the alignment tech noticed the rear axle is offset 1" to the side. Factory spec allows for 1/2" with stock...

    Stock tires with lift?

    Has anyone lifted their 100 2.5 inches and left the stock tires on? I plan on buying the lift kit soon, but the tires will be coming later on down the road because the truck has brand new tires on it now. If you have lifted and left the stock tires on and have a pic. Please share!

    spacers, spacers, spacers

    Here soon I plan on putting a 2.5" OME lift on my land cruiser. I am hoping to run 295/70/r18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers (34.3 by 11.6). I know because of m3oar that they do not rub running the lift and tires listed with 1.25" spacers, even at full articulation. So here's the question. Are...

    Rough Country Lift Issues

    On my 11/69 FJ40 the PO installed a 4" Rough Country lift when he swapped in rebuilt axles out of a 77. I knew this was a cheapo lift and the shackle angles were off when I purchased it but the springs still had the stickers on them so I figured they would soften up a bit. I was just happy to...
