suspension

Hi All, I’ve got an idea and would appreciate the collective input from Mud. To give a bit of context; Almost every time I use the LC it includes a camping trip. While the breeze of setup is great with a RTT, it can be a bit of a pain to get it level. Additionally with the rear ARB bumper and...

I just installed this 3" lift 3 Inch Lift Kit Toyota Fj Cruiser + Front Control Arm + Rear Adjustable Panhard Rod + Rear Link (2007-16) - https://proshocksuspension.com/producto/toyota-land-cruiser-fj/ I did a sitewide search and only found 2 posts where members were running this lift. I know...

Hello all, I have a 2005 Toyota Land Cruiser that I bought back in 2019. Although the miles were low (92k at time of purchase) and the prior/original owner had all work done at the Toyota dealership in Yuma, AZ where he bought the car new, he was seemingly rough on the truck and I've spent a...

That's what I want . Read lots of info here , seems like a hodge-podge of ideas with no clear way . Is there a shop around within a few hundred miles who can do this ? Thanks for y'all's help

Moving out the old and making room for the new. Parts from 2003 Toyota LC with approx 205K. -2x Rear Upper Control arms with original bushings - see pics. $80 pair - 2x OEM FRONT Tokico shocks 22k miles on them, mild driving. $20/pair (Sorry about pics, the Tough Dogs are spoken for). -2x Front...

Hello all, I have a 2003 Lx 470 which has developed a really bad bounce going over bumps and uneven payment. If anyone else has suggestions on what might be wrong that would be great as well. I suspect it is bad globes so I purchased them to repair my self with the fluid. However, I tore my...

I've observed slight changes to camber depending on my 2009 LX's ride height. No sensor adjustments - all stock. I didn't see this point pop up in the other alignment threads. In Low Mode and 'highway low,' I've observed slight negative camber. IE, the top of the wheel tucks in toward the...

Howdy, I've had a pesky pop in the front end for a while now and can't seem to track it down. I have eliminated ALOT of possibilities but can't find the culprit. The scenario for it happening is this: When turning left, typically from a stop either at a light or stop sign, as soon as...

Local shop is installing Dobinson IMS F/R w/ Nitro UCA's this week. Super excited to get the 135K mile original components swapped out! Anything in particular I should remind the shop about?

Had some Eibach springs installed - 2002 LX, no drawers, no rear steel bumper. Adding drawers later this year, rear bumper maybe next year. Center of hub to bottom of fender is roughly 23.25" out back. Not sure how much that'll shrink down as it settles, but would a front measurement like 22"...

Hello, I purchased some of these from Georg at Cruiser Brothers a while back for my 2010 GX460 with the intent of putting them on when my stock bags blew because I had them tricked up 2.5" There are just too many advantages to keeping bags because they ride plush, will auto level when you tow...

I have a set of front and rear bumps that I mistakenly ordered at the beginning of the year and now Timbren will not accept a return. They are new and have never been used. My loss is your gain. I attached a photo of my order and the fitment chart off their website. Asking $425 shipped.

Hey there, I recently purchased a 1995 Land Cruiser and I'm working on making it a really awesome overlanding/ rock crawling vehicle! I am currently looking for some aftermarket equipment on a tight budget, so I figured used was the way to go! I'm hoping to find steel or aluminum front and rear...

After lifting and installing my Dissent bumpers I have a few factory parts laying around that need a good home. Would trade or take a few bucks. Most just don't want to toss after the parts are all still very usable. 1. Coils and shocks 2. Spare tire carrier 3. Front bumper 4. Rear bumper 5...

I have read a TON of the prior threads regarding upgrading rear springs and suspension following modification over initial OEM weights which have left me cross eyed and head spinning. Current weight with half a tank of gas: Front axle - 3260 lbs (#) Rear axle - 3180# I will be adding...

I pulled this from an 80 Series, from what I believe to be a 1996. Decided not to use in my 1991. Axle comes complete with brakes and new, in the box rotors and original calipers. All together, $800 Come pick-up. 2 new in the box Dobinson off-set bushings $40

I currently have an OME 3" lift kit that came with 851/860 springs (2" springs) but I'm looking to clear 37s well. I am not afraid of too much trimming but would like to stay away from it if I could. I'm looking to replace just the coils for now to get me to that real 3" lift height instead of...

... that is the name of my newly purchased FJ45 pictured below. I have been on this website a number of times but now feel I have the badge needed to join up. I have always wanted one of the old cruisers, but I am willing to admit I know F(J) all about automotive restoration, or even heavy...

So I'm looking to purchase a 2019 GX460 with 60k miles. The price is good but after inspecting it, there are a few suspension components leaking grease. Both upper control arm ball joints are leaking (1 slightly more than the other) and 1 of the outer tie rods is also leaking grease from the...

I hope to make it clear that I am not only new to the forum but to the 80 series community as well. Just to preface, I have a 1997 fzj80 and am looking to get either a 4” lift or a 6” lift with either 35” tires or 37”tires. Which configuration would be best for all around off roading with the...
