Is it easy to buy a suspension? Yes, if you don’t have a 4Runner) - Toyota 4Runner, 3.4 liter, 2001

       4 Toyota 4Runner 34 2001

My ordeals with the suspension continue, it's a must-have show. Tryndets) I was deceived with touchdogs, they are not available, and they will be the devil knows when. Okay, so it's not destiny, I thought, I started watching OME again. While watching … Everywhere ended and they are on my car. AEEEE! Lucky! Okay, I started looking at Koni. All to order, wait 2 months. failure)
And here I was thinking, why not make a feint with your ears, and whether to put some kind of thread at all to an unknown little animal? And what's the difference? If both OME and Touchdogs can come along, why not try "exotic". I am an old technodrocher, apparently this played a role. The result of what we have now. I was looking for amortization, which is as similar as possible to my usual bicycle))) and not these dull car ones.
What was found. (From what they do to my car)
— probably known to some SWAY-A-WAY, which makes the front amortization under the runner and lift 2. the price in the states is 375 side. with a spring at 650Lbs.
-second version of Icon. The structure is essentially the same. Price 1050 for a pair of front.
I understand the jambs are possible. Nobody put them here. It is NOT clear how they will behave in winter. Nothing is clear. The Americans put a lot of both options. The stem is open. This is treated with a "kandomchik" on the spring. "But swapping, a completely collapsible system, adjusting the spring preload with a ring. Cyclists will understand me) The amortization is fully serviced, it pleases.
And also coil-overs make it possible to adjust the elevator on the fly", as a rule, in within 3
inches.There is also a Radflo very similar to Ikon.
these are the pies, I propose to flood. Would you buy it, take a chance? I really want to try it, because even here you can see what you are paying for, not like in ordinary pieces of iron)) In principle, the price seems high, but look how much our horses and raids cost? Exactly.
ps-Icons in the states are praised more for reliability. but the price is 30%
higher zy2- and in the last photo is my dream for the rear suspension)))

А что именно требует подгонки в коил-овер-ах?давление в воздушной камере? как я понял, обычным насосом высокого давления это делает без особых сложностей. В камере же 200Пси, верно? или пружины садятся? или масло надо менять? В чем проблема именно?
Соноровский комплект у нас уже есть один)Да, всего один на всю страну. Именно этот, состоящий из Бильштайнов 5100 и тундровских пружин. В комплекте идет диф.дроп кит. Мне соноровский комплект почему-то не нравится)
По цене…Ну у нас в РФ тот де Свэй-а-вэй стоит ровно в 3 раза дороже и предлагается только одним магазином и не весь далеко. ОМЕ полный комплект на раннера обойдется примерно в 1200 долларов( на том же Тойтеклифтс он стоит 700 долларей). Вот и считайте. Цена не много дороже(
In SAW, I'm confused by the spring rate of 650. Standard rear springs have a stiffness of the order of 150-200. front standard 600. Won't the SAW kit be a lot stiffer? 650 usually goes under a power bumper/winch.

That's right. There is no direct elevator to Runner! The coil-over system, although it allows you to change the settings, needs to be adjusted annually and, as you sweep, is very expensive! I have identified two viable options. The first is OME and completely Toytovsky. sonoransteel.com sells it. It consists of Bilstein 5100 front shocks for 2003 Toyota Tundra and factory springs from 2002-2002 Toyota Tundra about 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) and rear shocks from 1995 Toyota Land Cruzier and rear springs from 1995 (just because which are the shortest) Toyota Land Cruizer. Approximately 3.5 inches (8.89 cm) I want to note that it is very desirable to lower the front differential usually 3/4 - 1 inch (1.9 - 2.5 cm) so that the corners of the grenades are tolerable.

Overloads makes kits on the 600th spring. But, not for the 185th body, but for the 215th) We must look. The same radflo make kits with Eibach springs to choose from. But I haven't quite figured it out yet. While collecting reviews on your sites, I read. As always, there is no consensus. I'm not for dirt, really. Me for travel) yes for a comfortable ride on broken country roads. I won’t drown them in bolts)
And how are you? what is in the hanger?
As for adjusting the coil overs, by analogy with the bike suspension, it is sent to the service to change the oil / oil seals and that's it. It can be done here as well, actually. the main thing is to know the viscosity of the oil inside

As for coil overs, I know only what I've read in the forums. so I won’t go into details much so as not to freeze something :) As I understand it, they need to be configured after a certain time. They are removed and sent to the factory for this. That is what convinced me. Why once again do something that you can not do, and it’s simply impossible to stay without a car - it’s like without air! Plus, this system is designed for desert runners, i.e. fast driving through the desert. Like Baja 1000. Therefore, hard springs! - constant load. It all depends on what kind of off-road you are into! The springs are really strong! I have a bumper and a winch and springs of the same stiffness! The Sonoran is designed for rocks (and importantly, it's made up of Toyota parts) and is a lot softer, while the OME is for explorers, which is somewhere in between. So I collected from both TRD / OME!
Well, damn prices you have me sausage. what a pity :(

By the way, dealers of Bilstein 5100 racks do not even deliver to Russia to order. And when you start telling them that they are "like these, silvery", they claim that there are no silvery bilsteins in nature. It's just a song))
Regarding the adjustment, everything is clear, this is not the worst thing. It will just be necessary to shed those in which the air chamber is filled not with nitrogen, but simply with air. For with nitrogen, we may have difficulties. The rest. I have already found how they understand, everything is like on great bikes, one to one.

I have a bilstein 5100 in front of the Tundra F4-BE5-6929-H0 with a sepia number and OME 881 springs (on the bumper and winch) and in the back bilstein HD on the Land cruizer F4-B46-1478-H0 and 890 springs (on the bumper and spare wheel) allows normal articulation,

"As for adjusting coil overs, by analogy with a bicycle suspension, it is sent to a service to change oil / seals and that's it. This can be done here, in fact. The main thing is to know the viscosity of the oil inside"

Well, that's what I meant. you have to take it off and wait until it's back and then put it back on.

I don't like the swamp either, but I'm not afraid! :)

1- they are made of chrome-molybdenum (steel-Reynolds 853)
2-the angle of the design itself is such that when the suspension is lifted, the angle remains normal. And not like I have now.
3-almost all of them are made not for a classic ball joint, but for a universal one of its kind and with a different mount.

What's so special about them in the levers? Bulgarian-welding does not solve?

m
motorpics 21.02.22

Search, dryuchka) That's right, bravo! Dobinson is poison, he doesn't make a ranch for a runner, skyjacker too) I just don't like Ironman, it's better to wait for ome then. Yes, hell knows, with our prices and warranty conditions, one bullshit of what to buy, OME or Icons from there. The price is the same, the probability of hitting is the same) You can adhere to the canons, but you have to try something.
Yesterday I read that Icons recommend using it with tuned upper levers. Now you need to understand whether this is a marketing scam, or a strict necessity. I tend to the first option. These upper levers cost almost 1000, so what the hell)))

Synthraven 21.02.22

Real technodroch)))

How do bike forums respond? "Vpoisk, dryuchka" (c) )))

Duc, so that there would be no useless rubbish later, maybe it’s worth sticking to the canons? Something I don’t like, honestly, such a complication of the design.

Or maybe you should overlook other brands of Dobinsons, Rancho, Skyjacker, Ironman and others? And cheaper and somehow more confidence inspire. My IMHO.

Again, I like to experiment myself, but sometimes these experiments turn into unnecessary digging and re-sorting. As a rule, wearing a hastily aural order.

By the way, both of my "stock" are great))) Somehow it's inconvenient even. Although not, In a hurry, the seat and pedals are not stock))

No, in the people it is called "uncontrollable fierce sex with your own brain." And all because
1- I definitely don’t like our prices for spare parts (
2- I want the same one, but with mother-of-pearl buttons
3- it’s an awl in the ass.
I studied the topic over the weekend until I can finally make a final verdict for myself. Still, the pile does not make a kit with the 600th spring that I need (Back makes normal kits, but not forward. Donahue Racing can’t find whether they deliver in the Russian Federation. And not a single store has yet answered my letter with pleas and send requests in the Russian Federation Apparently there is nothing to expect before the end of the Christmas festivities in the states (

Well, Nitsche, there are no other things in life other than grandmas outbid — melancholy, some grandmas! :o) ... this is probably how to work as a bathhouse attendant in the bathhouse, in the evening to earn extra money as a bath attendant in another bathhouse, and build bathhouses on weekends

That's why we are all sitting here, with our latitude, feeding all sorts of outbids))

I also didn’t like the prices for regular headlights for my horse: for three days I kept forums and acquaintances ... I don’t want to pay extra money to sellers from the forums (I’ll keep quiet about the shops) ... as a result, I was already ready to give one sold to me for purchase a set of headlights, since such a meticulous one … I won’t take one dick yet … why did you fuss, because you still put the extra lights you bought ahead of time? :o)
I agree that they are finishing off Russian cheats on goods!

Good luck to you.

and the other day there was an opportunity to carry radflo.

the price is acceptable. compared to others.

How will the ideas for a replacement — contact. stir up. :-)

m
motorpics 21.02.22

well, yes, that’s exactly what I wanted. But in the process of driving, the understanding comes that reasonable sufficiency is needed, and not “buy everything that is”)

I'm telling you as a Radflo user that they are assholes))))

you just want to build a dacaromobile. (actually wanted)

3 years have passed already...

m
motorpics 21.02.22

Well, yes, you can put everything. But at the same time I wanted everything. And levers, and fists, and get rid of the usual ball joints right away, and also the chromoly drive beckoned. Nothing, I will return to this issue for sure)
Radflo may be assholes, but my soul sunk the most))

d
dvoffroad 21.02.22

Yes, like the current of the spring and the ammorty. and all business)))

with your frantic marches all the more ...

Radflo assholes!)

m
motorpics 21.02.22

yes, when this topic was eating away at my brain, then no one was particularly interested in this topic))
I then settled on Radflo, but I realized that in order to get the full profit from all this, you need to not only change the shock absorbers, but also a couple of pieces of iron on the suspension. And at that time it was all out of the budget. Therefore, I put a vinaigrette from what was here, and I ride it for now. But when it finally dies ... uuu, then I will finally come off)

so what. where did it stop?
