so ..... can anyone tell me how to fit the damn front swaybar? And what are the best settings to use (I bought an adjustable one) - I take it neutral is the centre one - but what holes do I use to change what properties?

I usually start of with the front bar on full soft and the rear on the middle setting.

If it oversteers too much, then I move the front bar to the middle setting

If it still oversteers too much, then I back the rear bar off to the softest setting

If it still oversteers too much, then I move the front bar to the highest setting

If it still oversteers too much, then you might need some more rear camber and/or the HICAS is still working (get rid of it) and/or the rear subframe alignment kit needs to be set to maximum traction (squat)

I usually start of with the front bar on full soft and the rear on the middle setting.

If it understeers too much, then I move the rear bar to the highest setting

If it still understeers too much then you don't have enough caster/camber on the front

:D cheers :D

thanks for the sway bar info SK.

Oh and fyi, when I fitted the front shocks/springs, with them at the standard height that they were delivered to me (the middle circlip groove), the front was 370mm from the centre of the wheel. I had to drop it 2 circlip grooves to make it 350mm. Not sure if they have buggered up the circlip groove heights or what. I am yet to install the rear shocks.

Just thought I'd let you know.

Thanks heaps for all your efforts too!!

Like all springs , they will settle a little bit, so make sure you check the heights after 1,000 k's or so.

:( cheers :(

swaybars are in, no other sus mods, but car sits noticeably flatter. Rear end is more predictable, can really find the limit of your tyres a bit too easily :thumbsup:

it might just be in my head, but would it make the car a bit more "solid" over general bumps and humps? I seemed to notice on my usual roads that are a little crappy, and just going straight, the car will just be more settled over the uneven stuff. Might just be in my head :domokun:

settings i have at the moment are full hard rear, full soft front. Will wait for a track day to play with them

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.
