Great write-up. The process is very similar to the 100 series LX470. I look forward to the front end write-up.

I’ll finish up the write up and post! Front end was so much easier except for the UCA torque!Bump for updates on the front-end rebuild. What's the word, OP?
Unfortunately, like a moron, I threw it away. Really should have taken measurements and measured stroke. Gonna have to find a junkyard one to take apartThat shock shaft is huge, did you measure it?
OP, do you know off hand the thickness of the OEM coil spacer? Thanks!

Glad this resource is here.
This question is for anyone
Would it make sense to replace the shock bushing but not the shock? Partsorq is out of one of the coils at the moment so I was going to skip the coil/shocks and (pay someone else to) do all the other items in addition to replacing globes and fluid.
I'm at 210k and I would be thrilled if I could get this driving like new. The way it rides now I just drive the 80.
thank you
I assume you are on an LX570 w/ AHC? If the shocks are not leaking, you can leave them alone. I would concentrate on new globes/accumulators and fresh fluid first. Replacing those and flushing fresh fluid into the system will make a huge difference on most LX's. There's a great thread with tons of good info from people who have tackled the globe replacement: LX570 AHC Globe/Accumulator Replacement - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/lx570-ahc-globe-accumulator-replacement.1193703/Glad this resource is here.
