    hello to all tsikot members, i'm new here but have been browsing your site for months already. i'm planning to buy a 98 LC 100 Dubai sana but when I viewed the unit today I found out that naka AIR SUSPENSION cya I thought same as US version. a friend of mine told me pag nasira yun it would cost PhP 300,000. is it true ? i'm having second thought of buying the unit if its true. anyone out there who have encountered problems with their LC 100 dubai suspension ?

    I think its not air, its hydraulic. the shocks are the ones giving it the height adjustment, the springs are there to just help it, but they are conventional springs in the rear and torsion bars in the front.

    have refitted already a AHC model LC100 with conventional OME shocks and rear springs, the ride is still the same, but you lose the height adjustment.

    try mo kay WAS sa banawe: toyota LC part specialist sila most na binebenta nila is ofr LC80-100) baka may shocks sila for your ride

    712-3112 712-3097,

    may isa pa sa banawe sa may malapit sa mcdo/orthopedic(maka LC40,50,60-80 kalimitan nakapark dun) di pa ako nagagawi dun, pero baka may parts din dun..

    PS > alam ko nga din hydraulic yan, using oils, may sariling reservior yan. kung namamahalan ka, try mo pagawa kay ZEE sa may araneta, sila gumawa nung TEMS ng liteace ko..fraction of the cost lang din...

    Yep, I'd vouch for ih8mud. DIY mga tao dun, they work on their own cars and madami ka matutunan. Pati yung mga temp gauge mod, pag-mix and match ng OME parts, etc.
