shock

My lovely PO broke the front lower shock mounts off and welded bolts in place instead. Those have now broken on me. I’ve sourced a used set of spring plates, new u-bolts and shocks. Started working on it today and discovered the plates I got are slightly different than the OEM ones on the...

Well, I'm unhappy. I bought these last year for one of my 80's and should have bought them for all three. NLA I think Tokico was the OEM supplier. They are still selling them. Can anyone confirm that this was the OEM supplier? @OGBeno

Ok so I’m replacing my shocks and the fronts are easy obviously, and I came to the back 2 and found this. Curious how it’s supposed to be or how people generally have it. I have a bolt that goes through and is super hard to get to. Tried to just unscrew the outside bolt but it just turned so...

Installing 2.5” lift. Loosened kdss valves 3 rotation and LC is on 4 jackstands. Rear install of shocks/coils/airbags went fine. Using OTRAMM video as my guide but encountering problem up front getting ball joint loose from upper spindle. (Circled in red blow). Nut came off fine but not able to...

Hello all, need some help! What are my options other than replacing the whole rear end housing due to the passenger rear shock mount rusted out. Basically, the bolt that holds the shock will not screw in because the hole threads dont exist anymore. SMH. Is there a replacement mount that can be...

Can anyone help with measurements to determine the leverage a stock 80 series has on it's shocks? Basically looking for measurements from the radius arm pivot point to the shock centre line and then front axle centre. I've dyno'd a few LC80 front shocks and I need the leverage to translate...

As stated, I have a 2003 HZJ78 with tired Dobinsons on a 2" (50mm) lift. I don't know what model or size the Dobinsons are. Looking for some suggestions for replacements options (ideal length, IMS vs remote reservoir, etc.). Maybe new versions of what I have are the best route, if I only knew...

Moving this topic from the LCDC9 thread to its own thread to get better visibility. @elkeye posted his damage (shown below) and then last night I was taking my shocks off and noticed similar damage. Not sure of the cause or how best to fix it but some speculation below...

I replaced all my shocks with Toyota OEM shocks and springs with Dobinsons springs last December, and now the rear right shock is squeaking like a mf. When i bounce the car up and down via the trailer hitch, i can hear and feel it coming from that shock as it compresses and decompresses. Why...

Hi guys, I'm an old timer here at Ih8mud to the beginning of this forum in the name of mustardfj40 but I can't no longer login with this name. Anyway, we're dong an OME lift on a GX470 the issue we have is to remove the strut/shock and the lower control arm does not drop far enough down, so...

Hi, urgent input needed. Ironman warrantied my regular foam cells with foam cell pros but my mechanic is saying the the shock at the bottom is too big for the lower shock mount. It’s a 2003 Landcruiser and none of the shock mounts have ever been altered. Any feedback, did anyone have to file...

I just installed a set of the dobinsons adjustable remote reservoir shocks. I kept my slee 4inch springs. I installed them and set the adjustments to what they recommend for a "accessorized and weighted" truck. Excuse the ignorant questions but maybe they will help others. There are three...

I have a pair of used Old Man Emu series 60000 Nitrocharger Sport gas shocks/struts. These have the eye bolt on the bottom and a regular bolt on top. A few paint nicks, but still functional with plenty of life left. $75 OBO to anyone who can use them. I'd prefer local pickup and do not want to...

Hey y’all! Lurker and first time poster in need of some help, so thanks in advance! I purposely went it to a ditch with what looked like a nice little bump and my intention was to test out my new to me 100 series suspension! But instead I leaked out all of my fluid through the front drivers...

Vintage Koni Adjustable Shocks New in the box still, never mounted. Model 8241-1022. Approximately 27" long. Asking $200 for all 4.

As the title suggests, does anyone have the factory shock length for the front and rear? I tried the search bar but could only find results for aftermarket shocks. Edit: By shock length, I mean the stroke length.

How would you describe the on-road and off-road improvements that come from a BP-51 or King 2.5 suspension upgrade on an all-stock 2014 LC200? Also, are there any negatives you have noticed after upgrading the LC200 OEM suspension? My use is 85% in town with the remainder being a mix of windy...

Just some info for anyone needing to replace their rear shocks on their Lexus gx470: The Monroe 37270 OE replacement 4Runner shocks bolt right up and are about $60 for the pair. This is a great alternative to spending the hundreds of dollars for the electric shocks.
