Factory dampers are actually quite affordable. The rears were under $60 each back when I got my rig, though that was a number of years ago.
What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

Installed this a couple months ago. A must for every owner.
I laughed at how affordable it was.

I could have gotten another $150 or so off with the 25% and free ship, oh well.
If you’re replacing the shocks, please replace all the bushings and the top mounts, too. It’s not too much more cost, and no more labor.
I can’t remember if the 200 series shocks come with new rubber and hardware. Some of our stuff does, some doesn’t, hard to keep track.

Can you notice a difference in the suspension when you switch from SPORT to COMFORT?
Thanks for the part numbers!I laughed at how affordable it was.

Took it to my buddies shop so I could borrow his lift and swap in the new OEM shocks and springs but the front springs are designed so tightly wound, the wall mounted spring compressor feet didn't fit between the coils. Guess I'll be doing it on the ground with a rental tool, the old fashioned sketchy way.
Got some work done on a new to me 2018 LC200. Step sliders & skid plates (Slee), roof rack (westcott design), OME BP51 suspension (1.5 inch lift), Icon 17 inch wheels and Toyo open country 285/70/17 tires. All work done at Slee except for the roof rack, I installed that myself
Glad I can bring others joyJust got mine. OMG what a blast, literally and figuratively.
They are tight.. I have found even the rental tools sometimes have to be unthreaded to sortof scoop the female threaded end through the coils then start compressing.. a good impact gun really cuts down on the effort of this job.
Make sure to wear safety glasses, impact resistant gloves, a crash helmet, a cup, a set of hockey breezers, and football pads when you do it. And ideally keep your body behind a sheet of AR500 plate the entire time.
Starting to install some wiring for a DC power supply and for something else so I made a mount for the breakers. I drilled an additional hole (4" on center) in the battery clamp so to mount a piece of 1/4" ABS (5" x 6").
After wiring everything for the DC power supply. Note the ABS plate attaches to my drawer system via two magnets.

Teach that rear pinch weld a lesson!!!
Hopefully the rear is easier to clear than the front.

why no body lift tho?37s, no body lift, full up travel?
Hopefully that's all I have to do on the rear. I had to push the front wheel wells up an inch.
