Hi all! Not my first Land Cruiser, but the first one I fell in love with. It’s a 1997 Land Cruiser 80 Series in a GCC spec. Triple locked too. Been slowly piecing this together and restoring it through the years and I’m finally at the point...

Just a heads up. The stock cupholder that connects to the side of the center console/arm rest can be removed, heated and resized for larger cups. The edge against the center console needs to be trimmed straight again after resizing, but it will...

Adding that new OEM calipers do not come with new crush washers for the banjo bolts like parts store calipers do. I had trouble finding the appropriate sized crush washers and had to reuse my old ones after light sanding. Lesson: Buy new washers...

I practiced with the spare today. Paint thinner and sanded all the way down to 2000 grit. Mothers polish after. I think it turned out great! I think I’ll grab some 2k clearcoat also since I’ll likely be repainting the LX450 wheels. I’ll have to...

Time to try it out So I drove it another 2000 mile round trip to Colorado to do the red cone trail and some others Here is a little video we did while we are out there So the truck did great on the trip, had plenty of power in the mountains...

Alright so a little background I’ve had all kinds of vehicles and have done all kinds of engine swaps, LS3 in a 3rd gen Tacoma. LMM duramax in a 80. Full Tesla swap in a 1st gen Tacoma. ect ect… So I wanted in my opinion the best vehicle ever...

Coalmont OHv park at the north end is open 24/7. As I understand the plans for the other end in the further is they are going to close the coppinger cove road access and bring people in from Pryor Ridge , charge a daily use fee and limit the...

Amazing. Thank you. I searched but wasn’t using the “third” brake light term. Still stuck with the old GM slang of CHMSL - center high mount stop lamp. This seems too easy. But glad to know it’s holding up!

Removing the third brake light trim is bound to break whatever insert was present in the brake light assembly that the three posts in the trim seat into. Without those inserts, the trim is not secure and rattles around a lot. I happened to have...

Still have these if any interest!

Removing the center high mounted brake light when replacing the rear glass and a couple of these plastic clips broke. Anyone have a source? These are inserts that secure the metal oblong tabs from the final black plastic trim:

I know. I'm going to put 2 gaskets in there next time

Optional cup holder

Land Cruiser center console base for later model 80 series in oak. Great shape as shown in the pics. $100 Also have a brand new, unused BH3D cup holder insert that can be included for $30.

Bumping this in case someone needs a set of these.

Not bad for an amateur...

Well somebody had to be the guinea pig....and over a year later here we go. Got a bad case of cool parts envy on the Rubicon with @lelandEOD and ordered my @Delta VS tailgate panel. Also ordered a sheet of SeaDek and gave it a go. Final...

https://youtube.com/shorts/1kCUUdBr3mk?feature=share donner vehicle was a 2007 yaris. 37s turn super easy at standstill now. no more wrenching steering to lock over

Before you change the pump, try jumping it directly using a fused jumper lead. In most cases, you can tap the power wire quickly on 12v while banging on the pump motor to break it loose. Once it starts singing, cycle it on and off for a few...
