shocks

Hi everyone, I would like to talk about shock absorbers diameter, not suspension lift value. Are there somebody who has an experience with mid-high range monotube shock absorbers on KZJ78 like King, Fox, Radflo, SAW, Bilstein and so on? It is pretty hard to get good suspension play for...

I purchased these for my Toyota Prado in Costa Rica. When I tried to take them, Southwest Airlines would not allow them to be shipped. By the time I tried to return them to the Ebay seller, it was past the 90 day window so now I'm stuck with them. My loss could be your gain. I paid $889.27...

Anybody know if these will fit a 100 with 1-2" lift? The lengths seem in line with other offerings. Bilstein website says 5/8" hourglass eye bushing (not sure if that's what we have) and top stem mount. Seeing a few lengths in 2 valving rates... the ones below caught my eye. P/N 33-230337...

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.

On my '07 GX470 with 105k miles, I am replacing failing OEM shocks with Bilstein 5100's. The shop that's doing it for me is telling me I have to replace the airbags with springs at the same time. Is that true? Is there some reasonable argument why it's better to convert the whole system all at...

Selling a full set of ORI STX struts. 2-14" and 2-16". The 14" struts have been used for a season on my 2002 Tacoma but are in perfect working condition. No shaft scratches or dings. Very minor scratches on the bodies. The 16" struts are brand new. They were simply used to mock up a suspension...

New shocks that were mounted but never driven or used. They were on the vehicle x 1 week just to get measurements (reasoning this happened is the importer for the vehicle needed shocks on the vehicle to get measurement for the radflo shocks, I am not sure why but I plan to make a post about...

Shocks by Strutmasters for stock height 100 series. They ride very similarly to OEM shocks. They have 30k miles on them, and they still ride very nicely. If you need to replace your shocks but don't want to spend a lot/upgrade, this is a great deal. Includes all hardware/bushings. Located in...

For sale are: 1) OME Nitrocharger Sport Shocks - 2 front/2 rear; and 2) OME 2860 (aka 860) Rear Coil Springs. $400.00 for the bundle. Would prefer to sell together. This basically gives you everything you need to lift a 100 (at a pretty low cost), except for the torsion bars...

Current set up - OME J-Springs & L-Shocks, Slee bumper / Winch, Dual battery, Cooper 35s, 4X4 Labs rear. Looking at spring and shock options. Considering Slee shocks with medium 4" springs. Also looking at a few other options but Slee option seems pretty cost-efficient relative to other...

Pardon everyone for posting this on the Compiled Suspension spec thread earlier. I recently picked up a set of King 2.5 resi adjustable shocks for 0-2" lift for my 80 as well as 2.5" caster plates from Wits' End and new OEM bushings for the control arms. I'm on OME medium springs (~ 2.5" lift)...

i have a 2003 100, what are the best offroad shocks that dont break the bank? anyone know where to get a leveling kit?

Hey all, I'm looking at getting a lift at some point for the cruiser. Nothing crazy, just a normal lift to get a bit more clearance, replace old springs/shocks, and hopefully improve ride quality a bit. I've found plenty of threads to read about all the various options out there, but i feel...

1976 FJ40 with about a 4 inch lift (guessing, not sure how you tell). PO added this modification to the rear shock mounts at the top of the shock. Why would you do this? Should I attempt to cut it off and salvage the post and run a die over the threads? Do they make a shock that could accomodate...

Selling a set of Bilstein HD 4600 for 100 Series. Shocks work great, just went a different route after lifting. These are great alternative to OEM that provide a more planted ride. Installed these new in February 2017 and have since put on about 12k miles. All necessary hardware included...

Disclaimer: My intention is to share my experience, and what worked best for my application and use. I am and will never claim to hate on a specific shock brand, and say one is better then the other overall and instead provide details of how they all performed in my testing and where they excel...

Was doing some driving on trails in Northern Michigan and might have hit a bump a little too big in one of the many mud pits I drove through. I'm having the mount welded back and reinforced but I also noticed the shock is almost worn out. Does anybody have good brands for new shocks?

TL;DR: What are the signs and symptoms of AHC shock absorber failure? FULL STORY: I’ve been trying to trace a front passenger side suspension noise on my ‘01 LX470 for months and a few weeks ago I decided to spend the diagnostic fee at Lexus to have them track it down (I’m injured and can’t...

Set of Old Man Emu shocks, like new condition, for 100 series. I had these on the LC for about 1500 miles, but they were too stiff for my taste. Excellent condition obviously, with exception of a few rock chips that come with living on a gravel road. They come with the bushings, support plates...
