Stay with OEM (AHC) or go with aftermarket (1 Viewer)

[LEXCRUISER]

I have been searching for weeks whether I should stay OEM ('03 LX470) suspension system, or go with Ironman or OME system.
I am not sure how long the system will last since it is a 10 years old AHC system. The vehicle has a little bit over 133K miles.

Your input will be greatly appreciate it.

You may have more time than you think - my original AHC is still working fine. The last 3 years holding up bumpers, sliders, drawers, rack, and 45 gal aux tank.

Keep until it breaks

Nothing wrong with AHC. Recommend you keep it until cost to repair > OME replacement. My AHC lasted for like 12 years, even after my dad let a dealer put brake fluid in the globes. When things started getting weird, switched to OME and its more solid but not as smooth.

Unless of course you travel to remote areas, then I know I would be way more comfortable with a traditional suspension.
