    295/70/18 on OME 865s and Stock Shocks?

    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...

    Bouncy Bilsteins?

    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...

    Will Tokico shocks fit on 3 inch lift? FJ60 cruiser

    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...

    Guidance on shocks 1969 FJ40 stock suspension

    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...

    Back in my kzj78, need new shocks.

    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?

    King Shocks Length?

    Hey Mud, I am going to be converting the wife's 06 LC from AHC to standard suspension over the winter. Plan is to net about a 2.5" lift. While looking at the order options for King Shocks, it give me an option for custom length for lifted vehicles. Do I need to custom spec them longer or are...

    Opinions welcome on possible leaking shocks?????

    Two shops, two different opinions. Attached are pics. 07LX with dark drivers side shocks that appear to maybe have been leaking but no fluid noticed. Passenger side looks normal. Are there looking like they were leaking or just a different shade? Ride feels normal.

    Correctly measuring and specifying shocks to suit a certain spring setup

    Ok so a sort of newbie thing but something I've never completely understood. How do you determine what size/spec shocks to get? I have Lovells medium rate springs giving me about a 3.5 inch lift. I currently run Icon 1.0 shocks that are rated for up to 3 inch lift. That *should* be compatible...

    Ohlins ORX 2.5”/64mm Shocks

    Ohlins is debuting a larger damper that I expect will excite many. Applications ATM are for Tacoma and Bronco, but they do show off larger universal units which could be custom built… and enough interest will generate more applications.

    How to tell when the shocks have flogged out and how to correctly measure lift height for specifying replacements ?

    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...
