Yeah, just disconnected the plug. Disabling the Smart Alternator "feature" which is supposed to improve fuel economy by not always putting out charging voltage. It's stupid and leads to undercharged batteries, especially if you have Lithium or Deep Cycle.

Whats that part number of the rear springs you received from Ironman?

Just run 35s, no trimming needed. Might need to hammer the pinch weld depending on wheel offset. If you are going to have the stock bumper then there really is no point to 37s, as you won't be able to go over obstacles that 35s or even 33s would have got you over anyways. In other words, the...

Well, Dash called me to get info on the best people to work with in regards to importing parts to the US, I told them to contact Nisstec because they are great supporters of the community and also come to Gone Moab every year. It looks like that partnership is going good. I think now if you...

I have the Dobinsons installed, they feel the same as the Moogs, they are probably really close in spring rate. The length of the Dobinsons spring is much longer though, so provides way more lift. They are rated for like 300kg constant load so installing them on a stock vehicle with no steel...

The US models have integrated tow hitch, it's welded to the frame and quite beefy. Much beefier than aftermarket bolt on tow hitches on other vehicles. David Dash says the Patrol frame is thicker material, I'm not sure on that though because the US spec has higher tow rating (8500lbs) than the...

The issue with Snow mode enabled is that it cuts engine power if a wheel starts losing traction. The traction control starts acting early. In deep snow, sand or mud, you will need to turn it off because you need wheel speed.

Do it!

Went snow wheeling this weekend by myself up in Truckee, CA. I was near Donner pass, which is where the Donner party got stuck and started eating each other to survive. Pretty nice area with deep snow and boulders. It's in the same geographic area as the Rubicon and Fordyce Creek. The truck was...

Hi Dmski, I had the moog springs for a few months, as well as at least 1 other person I know. They did settle a bit, especially after towing my heavy ass RV. I think they settled but only ever so slightly, I do not think you need airbags but if you want to put them in, they are only $100 and...

Reply Yeah, 37" Toyo MTs. Changed from the RTs to MTs because the RTs arent E-Range. I am in the process of getting 3.36 gears so maybe that will make the mileage a little better too. Or quite possibly, a little worse.

Rackmount server slides? This was my Idea too. You must be in IT? I cant wait to get around to doing this too.

Swap in the VK56VD drivetrain from 2nd Gen Armada/QX56/QX80. ? Its Auto/4Hi/4Lo. The Auto is basically full time 4WD.

The RV is a 2019 Outback 340RD. The QX handles it surprisingly well, but you have to understand I have stiffer rear springs, airbags and E-Rated tires at 65psi. More importantly, I have 14K weight distribution hitch with DUAL CAM sway control (Reese Straight Line). Dual Cam is better than...

When I bought my QX, I seen a few other ones around the same price. Maybe they have gone up? The QX can have HBMC and non-HBMC. The HBMC suspension is actually what most of the Aussies run, but to be honest I dont know anything really about lifting them. The non-HBMC is just a normal coil...

2004+ The 2017+ NON-XD might fit though.

17" Steel wheels probably wont work. Infact many 17" Aluminum wheels wont work either. It really just depends on the design of the wheel. In regards to steel wheel designs specifically, they generally have less internal clearance than aluminum wheels. Honestly, 20" wheels with 37" tires is...

Yeah, the Moog springs will give about 1.5" lift. For the front, are you going to get the Adjustable bilsteins?

If you are only increasing tire size by an inch, that would be 34's (stock tires are around 33"), you might as well get 35's imo, they are more common tire size. Anyways, for 35's I would do like you are planning, titan coilovers up front and the moog springs in the rear, airbags too since you...

Hello, what are your intentions and use cases for the lift?
