Product Overview
The Pedders AHC Suspension Conversion Kit replaces the original Toyota hydraulic height control system with a traditional coil spring and torsion bar setup tailored for the FZJ and UZJ100 independent front suspension platforms. The kit enhances reliability by removing complex hydraulic components that are prone to failure with age while maintaining suitable ride comfort and load-handling characteristics.

Available in several configurations, the kit suits light to heavy load and towing demands. Lift options provide approximately 2 inches of additional clearance where required. Ride comfort may be firmer than the original AHC "comfort" mode but generally improves over worn factory setups. Wheel compatibility is broad with height measurements referenced on 16-inch wheels.

Technology & Materials
This conversion kit integrates traditional coil springs and torsion bars with reinforced mounting plates and quality shock absorbers. By replacing the hydraulic spheres and fluid components used in the original AHC system, the kit offers a mechanically simpler and more robust suspension solution designed for heavy-duty applications.

Installation & Compatibility
The kit includes all necessary components—front torsion bars, mounting plates, rear coils, and shocks—along with detailed instructions to disable the existing AHC system properly. It is engineered as a bolt-in replacement for the original suspension and is compatible with all wheel sizes. Professional wheel alignment after installation is recommended to optimise handling and tyre wear.

The heavy-duty kit variant is specifically intended for frequent heavy load carrying and towing, offering enhanced durability and control under increased forces.
