I own a 2010 w/ 40k miles - everything stock except for BFG KO2 285/65/18, OEM coil spacers, and Slee Sliders
Any recommendations on the easiest/best way to add 1-1.5" lift, improve vehicle nose dive when braking hard, as well as improve cornering/handling and firming up the lean? The stock...
I have recently bought a LC76 2018 with 1 HZ in mint condition. This a UN Spec(May be brought from Gibraltar,Toyota).
It is fully a basic one. With minimsl electrics and a good aircon.
Right now the ride is very bumpy and harsh. What should I do to make it comfort?
I read in somewhere that...
Check out this walk around video by Stellar Built of Sacramento, CA. They have a 200 dubbed the Corporate Cruiser which is very well done, especially the suspension work. Check it out!
Hi I'm introducing myself. I just bought a 2005 LX470 and am very enthusiastic about entering the venerable land of cruisers. I'm out in NJ & would love to eventually join up with meets etc.
To do list in order of importance:
-New suspension... AHC leaks like a banshee. Thinking dobinsons...
So my Lexus has been maintained at the dealer since new, it has 145k miles on it. I get a video inspection from the dealership claiming all my shocks are leaking and the ahc rear line also leaking. Note I spray fluid firm yearly, maybe they are seeing that and think the ahc is leaking. I have...
Ok, relative 100 LC newbie here...I am currently working on baselining my new to me 2006 LC. It currently has OME suspension with heavy rear springs, SPC Arms, Slee front diff drop, Trail Tailor extended links, and the Delta VS panhard bar bracket.
I have replaced the upper ball joints in the...
First off, I've heard nothing but great things about Trollhole's! @Trollhole @Teddy
A guy I know here locally mentioned that you have done numerous AHC deletes.
I'll try to keep this as short as possible... I'm looking for an expert second opinion on my AHC system, which I also happen to like...
I have an fj40 I restored several years ago. I just bought it back. While he owned it a 4” lift was added with new springs, poly bushings & new shocks. Original shackles were used. When you drive and go over a bump it squeaks. Is the squeak because greasable pins were not used?
Thank you.
I recently finished updating the suspension on my new(ish) to me 2000 LC. New end links and bushing front and rear, brand new rear sway bar and new shock front and rear. All OEM parts. I did everything myself until it came to the rear shocks. I took it to a shop to have that done because it was...
Hello, i would like to do a gvm upgrade on my 1992 HZJ75 ute. I want to get as high a gvm as possible without changing or modifying the engine or major stuff like that, however I'm fine with changing the suspension, brakes, strengthening the frame etc. What mods would i have to do and what gvm...
I have a 02 LX470. The AHC is not functioning as it should and I think it’s time to replace it. I’m not rock crawling or hardcore off road. Mostly city driving and weekend adventures that find us on dirt roads and camping trips. I was a simple but reliable suspension, plus a new baby means I...

If you know any junkyards with a 100 series please let me know- I would greatly appreciate it

My 80 has brand new OEM shocks and front springs. The hangers for the exhaust have been checked and are fine. Yet, there is still a squeaking that comes from underneath that sounds like metal on metal - i can't tell which side it's on and I know it's an old truck and will never be quiet, but...

Symptoms:
Recently steering wheel points slightly right but truck seems to track straight.
Truck has roughly 20k miles as do the ridge grapplers. It’s primarily used for...
Suspension is blown on my stock 2005 non-KDSS GX470. I have researched and read through the forum posts until I am blue in the face. I am sure there is a thread that discusses this, but I have tried to search and cannot find what I am looking for. I have spoken to multiple places on the net...
Hi. I have a 98 LC. For 5 years no mechanic has said anything about my control arms and now one is saying that mine are not ok (maybe unsafe) and look unusual and aftermarket. Recently I'm hearing noise in my steering when turning tighter in a parking lot etc.
Do these look ok to you?
Pics of...
