Pedders NON-AHC 45mm lift suspension conversion kit for independent front suspension (IFS) HDJ100 & HDJ101 Series Diesel Land Cruisers, converts your original Active Height Control (AHC) suspension system into standard non-adjustable suspension.

This kit comprises of everything you will need to replace the AHC suspension which comprises only of high-quality Australian components from Pedders.
The shock absorbers, front & rear are the Pedders TrakRyder Twin Tube Gas range.
The rear coil springs 7745 offer the lift with a slightly firmer ride and a spring rate of 204 lb/in.
Please note:
For more loaded / Towing vehicles or customers that need a Heavy Duty option then use the 7845 Rear coil option by selecting the tick box near the "Add to Cart" button.
Your front end uses handed heavy-duty torsion bars and control arm strengthening brackets which are also made in Australia by Pedders.

For the full spec of each product within this conversion kit please see the individual products below - Kit only fits models with the 1212mm long Torsion bars

Kit Contains:

TrakRyder Adventure Front Shocks x2
TrakRyder Adventure Rear Shocks x2
Pedders 45mm Lift 7745 Rear Coil Springs x1 (Pair) - 204 lb/In - 18mm wire.
**(Select the H/Duty 7845 261 Lbs/in ONLY for constant loaded vehicles)**
Pedders Australian HD Torsion Bars x1 (Pair) - 1212mm long - Handed
Control Arm Strengthening Brackets x1 (Pair)

Replacing the complete AHC suspension system on your 100 Series Land Cruiser will cost you around 14,000.00 GPB from Toyota; this demonstrates how unaffordable it is to replace a single part of your AHC suspension system let alone the complete system. The main cause of AHC systems failing are the springs sagging which causes additional weight/pressure on the shock absorbers, therefore, added pressure on the hydraulic pump, sensors & spheres triggering warning lights on the dash.

  • As with all suspension shocks/coils supplied, paint is not covered under warranty due to the very nature and position of the component.
  • Always ensure your front wheel alignment and geometry is checked after installation.

This kit is NOT compatible with the UZJ100 Petrol 4.5 V8 which has shorter torsion bars. 

Disabling Dashlight instructions:
In our "Download" tab are Pedders complete detailed instructions to disable the dashlights (should they come on) to ensure that no warning lights are displayed after fitment which is essential for MOT’s.

Ride Heights: 

To provide you with an idea of where the vehicle will sit after fitting the kit, below are some "average" ride heights and information:

  • Ride heights are taken from the bottom of the wheel rim vertically up to the wheel arch, this way the tyre does not affect the ride heights provided
  • Wheel diameters will affect this ride height dimension so we have provided dimensions with 2 common wheel sizes - 
  • You can adjust dimensions by 12.5mm (1/2") accordingly if running different size wheels.
  • The dimensions will vary somewhat between each vehicle pending on bush condition etc 

Below are measurements taken from customers vehicles after fitting:

Front ride height: - On a Torsion bar suspension, you the customer can set the ride height to whatever you are happy with - usually slightly lower than the rear which is not adjustable:
16" rims = 780mm (average)
17" rims = 792mm 

Rear ride height: - bottom of rim up to arch: - usually a 10mm discrepancy (NB: H/Duty7845 will lift higher)
16" rims = 805mm - average with 7745 coils - (approx 827mm with 7745)
17" rims = 818mm - average with 7745 coils - (approx 840mm with 7745)

Questions & Answers for NON-AHC 45mm Suspension Conversion Lift Kit - HDJ100 & HDJ101


Do I need to remove all the original plumbing etc?
In general customers feedback that have used this kit or indeed similar kit's have tended to leave the original plumbing in place. Of course this is entirely down to the customer or the mechanic carrying out the work.
This kit simply takes it back to a suspension that some HDJ100 models had when AHC wasn't fitted. 

Any problems fitting?
Again, as we don't fit we are going on a general feedback from customers. In short this is basic suspension work, 4 shocks, 2 coils and a pair of torsion bars to fit, the issues come with the age of a vehicle or location, in other words, corrosion!
Apparently the rear shock absorber top mounts can be a pain as they fit very close to the bodywork, maybe worth looking at these, we'd also suggest liberal use of WD40 prior especially on the Torsion bar adjust bolts !!

What are the brackets for?
When fitting high-grade uprated torsion bars more stress is put into the mounting points, these support brackets simply bolt on to increase the chassis thickness and prevent stress points.

What about dashboard warning lights?
There is a chance that a dash warning light may come on as of course you are changing the suspension, you will need your mechanic to address this. 

Is this a reliable suspension going forward?
Very much so, converting back to basic Gas shock absorbers with uprated coils and Torsion bars is widely used especially in Countries such as Australia and Africa.
And should any part fail out of warranty we can replace any individual component or like for like.
