Update to my risky decision installing 80 series Dobinson springs in the back (standard height spring) on sensor lifted LX470. Driven 10k miles now.
The springs have taken a good amount of driving to settle and get to the same comfort levels that I am used to having. After a 300lb combined weight of of a Dissent rear bumper and spare tire, I still have amazing comfort with full AHC capabilities. Took a pressure reading and was excited to see how capable this setup can be in the future. 06 LX has nearly 200k miles, rear shocks replaced at 150k, all Globes and accumulator as well as front shocks are still original. 13 ticks on the graduation level.
4.1 MPa-g! The shocks start to shut off partially at around half a tank of fuel, but the dampers continue give a good ride. Once filled up there is no problem. Its ready to take anything I throw in it!
