I’d like the same, but will settle for a Baja VW.

I'm also pretty sure I found the source of my drive line clunk.
New flange vs old flange. The splines on the old flange had been worn to a point!

My old physics professors used to say “Don’t force it...just get a bigger hammer!”
Replaced front right worn bearings and the left turn ”growl” is GONE! I did not take a picture, since it just looks like a wheel on an LX now. I had a few issues, but it’s all back together. I thought this guy’s set of videos was very well done: ME MY channel wheel bearings
how's the axle shaft look? when my flange looked that way the shaft splines were also trashed.

That's engineering, definitely not physics (spoken by a laser physicist)
Drove it straight after, warmed it up and put it through some tests. Everything normal , however, seems like it doesn't downshift a gear as easy as it used too. No feeling like jolting , really smooth. If grease can escape under the pressure of the grease gun, it makes no sense that it would stay in the shaft under heavy forces from driving.
That is horrible and well overdue. Mines due for change as well, 2014 is the date on it. (cooper filter)
Mine has never been changed. 215K so far. Guess I'd better order one. Does Toyota even have a service interval for the fuel filter?

Another one followed me home. Can we keep it?
Fuel Filter Replacement? Yes? No?
A few months ago I purchased a 99 LC100 just shy of 160k miles; it's my 3rd LC and 2nd 100 so I'm pretty familiar with the vehicle, its needs, its quirks, etc. It runs great, smooth & quiet just like my 2002 did, but it does some slightly less "peppy" than my 02 was (the 02 had about 115k on...

I'm not trying to prove anything to your physics prof, believe me, I hammered on that summbitch like I was a blacksmith. My eyes are weak, my legs are blind, alms for an ex lepper....
Put my Slee diff drop in today, and new driver side door hinges.
Still need to work on my pinch welds some more, these 34s are still rubbing.

I had owned mine for 6 months or more and one day I found a hide-a-key box in my driveway. Turned out to be the extra key for my LX!
New hood struts, new key bodies, new antenna mast, and mounted my fire extinguisher this week.
Yeah 30,000km's both diesel and petrol. Uploaded 105 series for someone else.

I had a chance to install a new transmission mount and @TRAIL TAILOR creeper skid and rear shock skids. It was super satisfying replacing all the rusted hardware with fresh OEM pieces. Torque specifications: 37 ft-lbs for the cross member to frame bolts, 43 ft-lbs for the transmission mount bolts, and 54 ft-lbs for the crossmember to transmission mount bolts. I used a 14 mm 6 pt socket for the bolts on the cross member and for transmission mount, and a deep 17 mm for the 6 pt for the nuts on the cross member to transmission mount.
Cross member was pretty rusty. Looks way worse on the side, flaking layers.
Transmission mount rubber was in pretty decent condition, the metal was a little rusty.
Had a chance to use my cross beam attachment only 40 bucks with coupon from Harbor Freight, super handy. I have been super happy with my Daytona jack, gives me 24 inches of lift! I used a 12 ton jack with some shop towels to hold up transmission while I swapped everything out. Will come in handy for for bumper install.

Fit and finish on the creeper skid line up nicely. No need to widen any holes.
I used a 15 mm 6 pt combination wrench and 15 mm ratcheting wrench to tighten the hardware on @TRAIL TAILOR rear shock guard, fits like a glove. Took maybe 10 minutes a side including retorquing the shock bolt, 72 ft lbs I think.
Access hole for the lubing the driveshaft zerk fitting.
Ran out of daylight to replace the front and rear sway bar with the uprated ones from TJM and SuperPro, and fresh OEM hardware. Next on the docket after these is @LandCruiserPhil aux fan kit.

That's @2001LC channel. He is very knowledgeable about LC and a solid dude when it comes to helping out his fellow LC owners.
I suggest sending him a token of appreciation via PayPal if you found his videos useful.
