They're both the same I believe. Buy the HCR32 one (first link), that way, if there are any issues, you can't be told you "bought the wrong item".

So AWD and RWD are the same in Hicas design?

yeaow! $$$$ Neither do away with the outer ball joints.

So its no better than a cheap ass lock bar

Driftworks

No more ball joint

Keep in mind they are selling chinese crap, so only get what you need from them.

My Driftworks radius rod is stuffed after 6 months of street driving, they dont want to know about it.

Their customer service is REAL bad, i got wrong brakelines, 4 months to sort it out.

So.... Good luck

And just jap have a handy little fitting for looping the hicas lines

Are there different types? I only have a single black bar that sits in the middle of the HICAS system underneath my car..

These look very different..

Mine still looks stock on both ends, while these in OP's link look nice, black and shiny.

The HICAS bars are a "lock". Just replace the actuator with something that doesn't actuate.

The delete kits are actually a "delete". You can do what the hell you want with the actuator (leave it, bin it) and the new parts you buy replace the old HICAS tie rods. The clever ones also replace the tie rod ends (by putting bushes into the steering arm holes), just like a non-HICAS rear end (which is still the bestest way to do it).

So your saying mine would just be the most basic one you can get?

Don't suppose you know who sells the ones with the bushes.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
