Hey guys,
Got some Tokico shocks free from a fellow cruisrehead, he thought they would fiteven with my 3 inch lift on my 1985 60 series. The old shocks are old according to PO so went in for the swap tonight, only to see that they only fit on fully flexed. Is this going to be an issue going...

I got a 2017 Tacoma that I'm using as a college pickup. Wish I would have found a manual but the 2.7 Auto is alright ( 22RE is what I'm used to in a small pickup). The biggest annoyance that I've had with this pickup is that it doesn't stay in 6th gear on the highway too well. The previous owner...
Selling a set of used Ironman Medium Load 2" Lift Springs for 80 Series. These came from the PO of my 80 , but they were underspec for its weight, so I upgraded. They have a terrific, supple, compliant ride, on and off road, when matched to the Ironman shocks. They are not fully rusted -...
Which CVJ axle should I get if I have a simple 1" coil over type lift. I have the Bilstein 6112 ride height adjustable coil-over setup in the front. This really is not a lift as all it does is move up the ride height within the stock travel. They have a "No Lift - Stock Angle" option and a...
I just installed Skyjacker's 4 in lift springs to my '79 FJ40, at first I was using Rancho 5000 shocks and the ride was horrible! .. it was so harsh and stiff! .. at first I thought the springs were very hard for the truck. then I decided to get a set of Bilstien 5100 series shocks instead, and...
As the title states, I am looking for a soft riding 4" lift spring for my all aluminum LS swapped (6L80) FZJ80. Ditching the 1fz made my cruiser much lighter.
My rig is very light, the all aluminum motor and transmission took a lot of weight out of the truck, I also run no spare tire at all...
Hello everyone, as there seems to be, quite few suspension experts...posting my question here.
I own 97 LC80, with "unknown" lift from PO.
By the measurements and eye, it seems to be approx 2-2.5", since rear springs started to sag after adding drawers, bumpers, wheel carrier and spare, we...
I have a 96 LC that I’m looking to add a 2” lift to. My rig is just a weekend driver, no rock crawling or extreme off-roading. Just the occasional dirt roads to get to campsites. I do plan on adding a front bumper and (maybe?) a winch. I also plan on adding a rear tire carrier from GGM. What is...
I have a 1991 fj80 that i am looking to lift. I am considering the OME 3“Heavy lift, as I will be putting on 35s and bumpers. My question is do I need to get the additional parts such as panhard rod, upper/lower trailing arms, and front tracking bar? How critical (or not) are those additional...
Hey guys,
I've had my 2004 GX470 for 5 years. At 135K my rear airbags failed so I replaced the entire suspension with the Eibach Lift Kit (part# 369-E80590050122). The truck now has 175K miles on it and the rear end feels unstable at times, like randomly it feels like it swings back and forth...
I was in Wilmington, NC for the beerfest this week and ran into this 100.
I spied the MT lowers but noted it has to be at least two to three inches higher than mine. I did not get all over it but started wondering if it was a body lift or something else.
Are you on here?
Or anyone else have a...
I own a 2010 w/ 40k miles - everything stock except for BFG KO2 285/65/18, OEM coil spacers, and Slee Sliders
Any recommendations on the easiest/best way to add 1-1.5" lift, improve vehicle nose dive when braking hard, as well as improve cornering/handling and firming up the lean? The stock...
I’m trying to reduce the size of the 80 that I currently have and maybe I’ll keep it.
I have a Slee 4” lift shocks and springs, Slee radius arms, double cardan shaft(being rebuilt now), sway bar drop brackets, adjustable pan hard bars and adjustable rear upper control arms. I would also like...
Might have been here (?) that it was mentioned about seeing if the shocks on my 80 (7 yr old Icon 1.0's) are flogged out as part of sorting the front-end clanging/banging when traverseing bumps/holes/etc. in roads.
I've never actually contemplated shocks 'going bad' but heck they're mechnical...
Since I’ve lifted my 80 more, I noticed that it rear steers more when I leans around long sweepers, the 3 link with no sway bar doesn’t help… I’ll put the way bar in the front eventually. But since I fixed the front kinda I was thinking about fixing the rear kinda too.
I was wondering if anyone...

Does anyone have any photos of a fj40 with a 2inch lift Or 1.75 inch lift and some 750 16 or 700 15 bias ply super tracktion power kings or sta super traxion?
I would like something like the 40 below but with the bigger 750 16 size tire. I am pretty sure the one below is the 700 15 tires...
