Bring the jacking/lifting of your 100/LX470 to a new safe level (2 Viewers)

[newbielx470]

Hi Phil,

Would the front driver side lower control arm itself be an ok place to place the jack adaptor (without causing damage to the control arm)? In some offroad cases due to awkward geometry, the slanted angle of the lower control arm may be more convenient/stable. But just want to make sure it won't cause damage.
Thanks!

The A arm would be no problem

I don't like being the contrary guy, but the (excellent, BTW) adapter in that pic isn't under the LCA. I think last poster was asking about lifting under the actual LCA?

I myself wouldn't lift the front by the A arm. Since some early LCAs were known to develop cracks in some situations at the torsion bar, and it's a moving, sprung part, I myself wouldn't do it. Some people probably wouldn't care, though.

yes you are correct still on my first cup.

the best choice on the rear IMO

Thanks! I checked again and the cross members between the left and right control arms are entirely covered by a skid plate . So I wouldn't be able to place the jack like the way in Phil's first picture. I'll probably use the frame behind the front driver wheel as a supporting point. The adapter fits there well also. (Suppose I only lift one front corner of the truck.)

Hi Phil,

I'd like to buy one of your jack adapters for a 100 series. I found your website/store but I don't see "Add to cart" button specific for the 100 series jack adapter. (Note, I do see "add to cart" button for 40/60/80/LX450 or any <2" jack post). Can you let me know the best way to buy one from you?

(Also tried PM'ing but maybe messages aren't going through.)

Thanks! Alex

Been checking in, did these restock and sell out already?

I don't think so. I checked a few times over the weekend and didn't see anything in stock.

The finish was not approved.
The plater is currently in the process of replating to achieve the proper shiny finish.

If these would work on a gx460 I would love them.
