2007 AHC v.s. Non AHC equipped

[twstrchasr]

Need to know if the AHC option on the Land Cruiser has the same stance as the non AHC? Meaning, is the "jacked up" rear of the non AHC aleviated on the AHC equipped one ?

I believe they have nearly the same stance from the factory though you could easily lower the rear of the AHC equipped LC with just one bolt. No alignment really needed either.

Looking at the Vehicle Height adjustment specs in the FSM, it looks like the AHC is 1/3 " lower in the front and 1 1/4 " lower in the rear, compared to the standard 2UZ-FE. So, that means the rake is nearly 1 inch (23mm) less with AHC, in the normal height.
When raised to Hi, the rake will increase tho', by about 3/8. And decrease by the same amount in the Low setting.
This is up to 2002 model year. Suppose it's the same or similar on later models

But as Hoser says, this is easily changed; takes a couple of minutes.

uHu, IIRC, the LC had different heights for different markets. Does the FSM list the various heights?

Yes, I posted the table once. See https://forum.ih8mud.com/showpost.php?p=911910&postcount=10

Ah, yes, there it is. Thanks.
