Feeling like the Cruiser has a little too much body roll in the turns. I realize it's a Cruiser and not a sports car but I am wondering if new shocks alone would help or would it need springs too ? Would either of these help ? Don't want to ride like a brick but would like a little more...

Bought the light / medium duty shocks, drove 300 or so miles on em and realized i should...
Has anyone tried these? Any good? Look much like OEM from the outside.

Hi There,
I have a 98 Model Lx470, which i have recently acquired, the car is mechanically fine and I have done the T.Belt and waterpump changes and the engine runs good TBH.
The issue is that the car is missing the AHC shocks and Accumulator globes but all other systems seem to be intact...
2004 GX470. I just replaced the air bags and rear shocks about a week apart (bags first). AFTER installing the shocks, the CEL came on triggering the VSC TRAC and VSC OFF dash lights. Everything came out much easier than I was lead to believe by the mechanic and went in even easier. I double...
I'm about to pull the trigger on the Dobinson c59-223v . I am considering going OEM front and rear shocks at the same time, or maybe OEM front and Dobinson Yellows in the rear to match the springs. Planning on leaving the OEM T-bars. My rig is stock weight, DD, with common towing of a 4,000 lb...
Hello everyone,
Been on here a little but military life has been getting in the way of me digging into my LC. I've finally got back to the states again and have time to get some stuff done.
I have done some searching on here and other places online and am trying to find if aftermarket...
Does anyone have shock and leaf spring recommendations for HZJ75 with 2-inch (50mm) lift? From my research, most of the modern brands (King, Fox, Ohlins, etc.) do not make shocks for this dinosaur. Has anyone had experience with KYB, Koni, Rancho, etc.? I know Bilstein makes one, but based on my...
Yep. Another “Will it fit?” Thread.
I currently have newer stock shocks and OME 865 coils. 1 inch wheel spacers. I will need new tires soon, and I would really like to use 295/70/18s if they will fit and actually be functional off road.
I know I will need to smash the pinch weld and modify the...
So lately my mom says her 1999 is way bouncier than it used to be. They got Bilsteins installed in it in June (not sure exactly which ones) and it already has a torsion bar crank + rear spring lift and 33-34” tires.
She says it started just a few weeks ago, and it does seem to get rather bouncy...
Hello.. I use my 1995 LC on my ranch, it has 200k mi and needs shocks and typical upgrades / maintenance. It's all stock now, and I just want replacements with prudent upgrades and attention where necessary. If someone is truly experienced with knowing what and where the FJ80s need attention...
Have a '99, no lift, and not sure if springs + shocks are original or not but love the ride. Soft but yet corners well. No sag under normal use.
Recently went glamping with a LOT of heavy gear and the back sagged. Am also looking to tow our lighter boat <3500 lbs.
I'm familiar with the...
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...
Howdy Cruiser heads! I am wondering if these shocks will fit. They seemed to be the correct shock, although not OEM. Another forum suggested this was a comparable shock to OEM and they were a good enough price to consider going with the KYB. However, not if these don't fit. Measuring the frame...
FOX Factory 2.5” Remote Reservoir shocks (12” travel) with DSC controls for adjusting high speed and low speed compression.
I purchased from AccuTune Offroad about 1.5 years ago and 3k miles ago. Great condition, built by AccuTune and not rebuild/modified. Depending on your lift height and...
Hey everyone, I had to park my truck for a while due to cost of living and changing careers. But I just picked it back up and drove it back home from my parents. Really missed that truck.
I'm curious if anyone has tried the new shocks from Dobinsons, the IMS I believe they are called. I need to...
After a lot of research and confusion I bought myself two pairs of Koni HT Raid shocks.
It will be over $1700 with shipping and tax. But I am confused. When I install these shocks, which rebounding setting should I opt for? and how do I do it?
Full set of control arms for an 80 series. I bought an extra set to install new bushings so I didn't have any downtime. Includes fronts with blue caster bushings for 2.5 lift, 2 rear upper, 2 rear lower, panhard rear and front. The arms all have oem older bushings.
Also selling 2 front fox...
