I have this new [2004] 100 series. Did all the easy stuff (Subwoofer, AC line cap, heater T's, fluid changes etc..) I have 31's and 18 inch rims and next to a stock 100, I can see I have more wheel well clearance than the stock set up. I have been cleaning rust off the undercarriage for hours and can see that 1) some parts [spacers] are new 2) my bushings are all shot 3) there are aftermarket Bilstien shocks 4) The rear coil springs seem to be aftermarket-old man EMU. Problem with all this is.... I haven't had a LC since my 73 FJ55...so I have no idea what the modern[stock] suspension components are supposed to look like. My hypothesis is that a previous owner eleted the ARS, added old man emu in the back, Bilstiens and some other mod in the front to go along with the 31's
I'll post a pic.. maybe someone recognizes this 3/4" aluminum puck spacer and/ or the slightly newer cross member behind the axle. Not sure If Ill upgrade anything. It is just for occasional light off-roading / camping. Dont need / cant afford a serious suspension upgrade....Anyhow.. if you can help me understand what I have and if it is any good, i'd appreciate it.

Looks like OME shocks, diff drop and the spacer is part of the 'diff drop' to drop the diff....
