    What springs should I run on my 80?

    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...

    What causes premature failure of suspension ball joint boots?

    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...

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...

    Hi all. Is anyone able to point me to somewhere I can find stock dimensions for the guard to hub centre on an early 90s PZJ77 or similar? Things are feeling (and looking) a little saggy so I'm going to have a look at having my leafs reset.

    '88 BJ70 RHD - OME Rear Springs Mismatch

    Hi all - I bought springs for my truck from a local resource. I bolted up the left side fine. The right side spring is short. I received CS017RA marked 1D22, which is what I was trying to get on the right-hand side of the car. I was able to bolt up the other wide, which is CS017RB / 12D21...

    Shock mount broke.

    So the previous owner switched the front axle to a FJ60 with power steering. In doing so, it looks like the front driver-side shock mount was cut away and a steel pipe welded in it's place. Today, thanks to DC area highways having what feels like speed bumps in the middle of the highways; the...

    KDSS question /problem

    I recently added a 2-inch lift (Ironman) to my 2016 cruiser. It now appears that the kdss is no longer working as can be seen in the photo. I had had some problems with the kdss and had it refilled a short while ago. What can I do to correct the problem?

    Lifting my 94FZJ advice and why-

    Hi all. I’ve read every article and thread on here related to suspension lifts but let’s face it, it’s a lot like reading instructions for dealing with labor and giving birth -they all target the same thing. Success and safety which obviously is very important and top priority. I’m doing a lot...

    I busted one of my AHC lines on my 07! Anyone have a used take off?

    Hey there! With some guidance from users here and a friend, I was able to diag my AHC system and found the culprit. It’s one of the hoses that comes out of the shock. One of the users on here “MycoManiac” made a very nice offer and idea of sending one of his used take offs. But just in case he...
