Not a mechanic but I can watch TH-cam videos like nobody else. Decided to make this video so someone can learn from my mistakes! Plenty more videos to come from my 2002 Toyota Land Cruiser

Taking my 17 yo land cruiser to get detailed, paint corrected and coated with ceramic coating (9H) Good idea or waste of money?

Bought a 2002 Land cruiser about a month ago. This video goes over what I think of the car. Price I payed for it and what's happened to it in 1 month of ownership.
What is Part Number torsion bar?
Question for you, I tried raising the front of ours, and realized one of my torsion bars is as tight as it will go, but my front end is way too low. Do you recommend resetting spline end near the adjustable bolt? Thank you!
Hey, did you ensure the bar was lined up correctly? Also, are you lifting the vehicle with both front wheels off the ground?
Is your 5thgen lifted when you did this?just curious.thanks
an honest guy. thanks for this vid.
FFS it’s pronounced eeem u.😡😡😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Nice
Kaymar make an awesome rear bar, very popular in OZ. You should swap out those crap BFGs, to say they are "interesting" in the wet is an understatement. I'm running Mickey Ts Baja Boss, these replaced the ATZ3s. So far they have been very good. I bought the last model of the petrol V8 variant 2007 as a spare car for fishing trips, it 124000 ks on it. Runs like a dream. Get a gazillion ks out of these motors. Did a few different things to it in the suspension dept , even standard with good running gear the IFS is pretty capable, more than most would ever use it for to be honest. It's no Patrol though, or 79 series. The 2007 model engine was tweeked another 28 HP with more valving too I believe.
I think this guy is dead , he does Not reply any question
Hey I'm Alive but life happens. What ? You got.
@@gearupgarage9609 LONG LIFE 😂 I have some questions.I just bought the torsion bars 1 Could you really lift it up 2.5 inch on the front ? 2 Do you have to do the front wheels alignment? Thanks you
@@danielsorondo6999 1. Yes 2.5 inches with the old man emu shocks and torsion bars. I also ended up replacing the upper control arms 2. I didn't get an alignment with just the shocks and torsion upgrade. I did once I replaced the upper control arms.
@@gearupgarage9609 can u tell me the brand of upper arms, I just going to lift it up 1.5 inch. Do I still need to replace the upper arms? And thank you again
@@danielsorondo6999 No you don't need to replace them however stock UCA have a limit it depends if you are going to be doing any off reading or will it be a mall crawler. I went with SPC UCA.
Nice work!
Love the open and honest feedback on your experience.
Really good video, thank you.
Thanks!
Where did you get the window rain deflectors
Great deal man!!!!
Toyota's eat up the dunes.
Nice Video! love the dunes.Thanks for sharing.
What tire size did you use?
I'm intrigued on how on your drive it was a lhd but when getting to drive, you got in on the right ie the way we are in the UK....you explain.
I am having a grating sound after installation complete...did u install a diff kit? did u change out arms?
Yeah. I replaced the arms about a month after. Where is your sound coming from?
A heroic effort. Did you have to mark the torsion bar in such a way so that you can put it back on correctly? Edit: Never mind.
i think it was worth it. how is it holding up 2 years later?
Damn I don't have any guards on my undercarrage that's odd
Awesome vehicle bro will last you forever if you take care of it. Put crown rust protection on under carriage.
I can’t wait to upgrade mine looks much better 👍
Thank you great video. the new torsion bar it’s similar to other one? Or bigger. Thank you
good job
Great video lad. Cheers.
Love the video, have a 2019 4runner myself and was concerned about taking it out on the sand with no lockers
Did you have a locker?
Nope.
Great content. Keep up the great work.
Is it necessary to replace the upper control arms or factory ok w this kit?? Thanks!
Also wondering 1year later
Guy here in CA has basically same LC listed for $24K. His is single owner and all complete records but either way .. I think you got a great deal. If you haven’t already you likely could sell it for more than 12-13.
I also have a 100 LC . I was wandering if you have any rubbing issues with your tires at 295/75/16 ?
Thanks for this, the perfect how to video. Really appreciated you mentioning the details (like ft lbs of torque). Keep it up!
Dude get lighting under that biatch
Great Video ! on the torsion bar install section . why you use the string ?
Good video apart from not showing or not setting up the front suspension droop. This is a very important step to get right on IFS 100. You must maintain a minimum of around 70mm droop for IFS to work correctly and safely. Many people get this wrong! My guess is that you're about 1inch too high in the front. Check it by evenly jacking the front up until both front wheels off the ground, now take your center hub to guard measurment. Then subtract your ride hight from this to get droop. 👍 OME/ARB are wrong to sell these kits as a 2.5" lift. Their front shocks aren't long enough, they're the same length as factory shocks, meaning you have limited amount of hight before losing the correct shock droop.
You're absolutely right. I wanted to get an alignment done before I finalized the droop. My intent was to make another video but life got in the way.
I came into this exact issue the lift for my 100 series... the shock only allows you to lift maybe just about 2" or so ... but that is pushing it if you want to maintain proper droop. Do either of you have any insight on longer shocks or ways to deal with that?
@@lewisnikkel4195 The front shock length must be between 455mm to 461mm open length to get a true 2.5" lift. OME and Factory is around 440mm from memory. Shock measurement from eye to the first washer. The only shocks that I know of are the Icon vehicle dynamics or the Dobinson IMS.
You are all correct. Maintaining front end rake or droop as you call it is vital. The Dobinsons are a good thing for this mod, as are Bilsteins. He really should replace his upper control arms, add a diff drop to it as well. IFS has limitations as to what's really feasible as far as lifts go. You should check your rear end for driveline correctness also. He will be disappointed in those shocks, they are crap. Their springs aren't much better. Springs are something you have to get right also , too heavy and you will need a chiropractor and it bounces all over the road, too light and it will sag and wallow if you have too heavy a constant load. Go for a lighter spring /air bag combo. Wrong spring selection will trash your socks as well. OME stuff seems pretty popular in the US, most of us aussies won't touch the stuff. Loosen the Tbars a little before your jack it up next time. Wheel alignment is critical too, you will struggle with this now as you won't have enough adjustment, hence the upper control arms. If you had chosen a heavier constructed larger diameter shock you would have had to do this . Lower control arms are prone to cracking and splitting under heavy use , such as long drives over corrugations , something common in Australia, you can reinforce them by welding them up in a couple of spots but this is not really legal here. But it seems to work. It's a weak link in the system.
@@qeull Just for clarity, front end "rake" and "droop"are not the same thing, they're two separate things. Rake is the difference in ride hight from front to back. Droop is the available down travel in the suspension from the set ride hight. When you lift the ride hight of any vehicle, you reduce the available droop. To maintain the correct droop on a 2" lifted 100 series you need longer shocks. OME are way too short for 2.5" lift, they cannot maintain correct droop at this ride hight. The shocks would be topping out all the time and not keeping the wheels following the bumps. And no point doing diff drop or UCA'S when running the OME shocks, because you can't get enough lift and maintain droop using these shocks. The maximum lift out of OME front shocks is only about 25mm above stock ride hight. Yes, lower control arms can be a weak point where the torsion bars attach, easily fixed by welding in strengthening brackets, also the torsion bar adjusters can break if not strengthened too, but probably a non issue for US conditions.
I have the same year, 240,000K California miles, new Michelin tires, new timing belt, and associated parts water pump etc., runs like a new car... quiet... I got it as a temporary vehicle until I could find a good Prius. I decided to keep it because it's such a tank, and drives so nice. Do the timing belt every 100K. Once I blew out the number five spark plug, the dealer wanted 10 K to fix. The valet at the dealer gave me a card said he would buy it if I didn't want to get it fixed. Then figured they were scamming, so I had a senior mechanic at an honest Toyota repair shop heli-coil the threads with associated parts. That takes some skill to do it without getting particles inside the combustion chamber. The cost $600 with coil parts etc. Run's great. Went back to using stock Toyota wiper blade assemblies, they work much better than the one piece wiper blades. Uses lots of gas, so I don't drive it that much, just when needed which turns out to be often because I like it so much.
Why do you have to replace the torsion bars? Can’t you just turn them up with the stock bars?
The new torsion bars are heavier duty than stock torsion bars. The OEN torsion are made to support the heavier weight.
Truck looks great! And you got one heck of a deal there.
Great how to! . . Hey man, do you have or did you have any issues with the axle boot tearing after you installed everything? Current 100 series set up: Dobinsons 2.5 inch long travel shocks Dobinsons springs Dobinsons torsion bars Dobinsons UCAs Dobinsons diff drop kit BFG KO2 315/75/16 or 35x10.4 2 inch spacers thanks!
Thanks for the video, I am not planning any LC projects yet, but thought the winter is a good time to learn what and how I can work on my car. My only suggestion, you should be using the shortest extension (or use a deep throat socket) to decrease the twisting effort with the longer extension.
Hows the ride after lifting?? Stiff??
Yes stiff at first. Once I added the roof rack and rear bumper it got better. When I have a full tank of gas and full of gear it feels much better. If I had to do it again I would install medium.
@@rodblanes9784 thnx fr the reply Im plannin to switch back to agency t bars
I'm thinking about getting one of these after I pay off my current car. Only complaints is the gas and paying 10k for a suv 200k mile plus suv
I think you got a deal. No rust. Low miles. Well done.
Awesome video primo!! Thank you so much
How do get it
This is crazy, here in Costa Rica for a 2006 4.2 turbo diesel manual they are asking for $30k 🤯
