Media Let’s see your LandCruisers in scenic locations

You can get the springs from Lexus
48131-60U30 2x front springs
481231-60Q00 2x rear springs

Are the springs all that’s needed for an LC to be the same height as a GX OT?

And will that change the ride quality of the LC?

Since I have some stock 24 GC550 OT coilovers sitting on the shelf, I guess I could slap them on the 250 to see what height they put the 250 at.

Then it should be pretty easy to tell how much increased height the 25 GX550 OT springs would give a 250.

I put my 24 GX550 OT coilover onto the 250.

With the gx coilover on it is 21.875" Hub center to fender lip.

From what I can find stock height is 20.75" hub center to fender lip.

Increase height of 1.125

I bet the 25 springs will net a 2-2.5" height increase.

I would recommend the 24 springs and a 8mm top hat spacer. This will get you around 1.5" and increase droop travel.

I'm not sure how well the stock shocks can handle the increased spring rate of the 25 springs.

Sunset in Sawtooth Nat Forest after a day of hooking trout, and just south of Emigrant MT on the way home. It towed the wife’s ’Pod really well. About half the fuel used that the 5.7 Tundra would have gulped down. No shortage of power except for passing on hills at 75 mph or higher. Which when towing might not be considered “smart” anyway.

Finally removed the roof rack
