    Leaf spring eye / loose bushing sleeve

    Hi all, I am glad to be here. I am restoring a 73 FJ 40 and I have a question about suspension. If I instal just the EMU shocks and damper will that give me any lift on the truck? Or do I also have to install new springs and shackles? What are the advantages and disadvantages of going either...

    KDSS lean with stock suspension

    I need some help. I just purchased my first Land Cruiser this week and after getting it home noticed the sway bar wasn’t connected. At first I assumed the first owner just wanted more off-road articulation as the truck had quite a bit of off road mods to it. After fussing with it for a while I...

    Thoughts on Dobinsons Comfort vs Spacers

I'd like to get thoughts on the direction between the 2 above (or another idea I may not have thought of) It won't be wheeled. Maybe at some...

    I have a 2013 LX570. One of the hydraulic lines on the AHC system burst with just 86,500 miles on the odometer. The dealer says this was due to rust and corrosion. To replace the line I was told that the body must come off the frame. Additionally they can not say if other parts need to be...

    Cost to replace LX470 hydraulic suspension with something custom

    Looking into purchasing my first 470, although the suspension may need to be replaced in the near future. What should I budget to remove the hydraulic suspension and replace with something like an Old Man Emu (or something comparable) kit?
