Finished a week of elk hunting

The usual, I guess?

I put it all back together and oiled with GM Supercharger oil that has been in my tool box, triple bagged, for the last 15 years. Spun it a bunch and she's tight. No noises or wobble. Must have been damage prior to last rebuild. I'll reinstall...

My bearings were nice and tight. I could not believe how good everything looked.

I’ve got 150,000 miles on my TRD SC. I’ve serviced every 50,000 miles, with the last service 5,000 miles ago when we rebuilt my 1FZ-FE at 250,000 miles.

Vario F is the seat. I didn’t want heating or cooling, but it comes with integrated heating. I wanted seats as light, simple, and mechanical as possible. My center console is a modded Tuffy Box, which pre-dates the DeltaVS one by about a...

Old school MB-Tex was indestructible! That was my thinking with the ScheelMann pleather.

Honestly, I could wish that anything wore as well as the MB-Tex in the old S-class I had. I genuinely didn't know it wasn't leather when I first got it.

As an Audi owner, they are comfortable — BUT the leather and stitching deteriorate quickly after a few years. My wife loves her A3 S-Line Quattro, but the leather has seen better days.

The stock seats were abysmal in my opinion, like most Toyota seats. They really aren't sized well for someone tall and broad shouldered. My only real gripe against the brand. As for how much adjustment is necessary, probably not that much...

100% worth it. I just installed mine in July. After nearly 20 years with my 80, my back deserved it. The buckets in my other fun cars have fixed backs, nomex, and carbon fiber. The Scheel-Mann seats provide similar support, with more comfort...

Made for it

Yes. That said, I relocated my OBD II port behind the panel about 20 years ago. Undecided if I want to use the cut out.

Exploring Engineer Pass.

Oh ya!!!!! 🤩🤌 Cheers

Big project! No more broken tabs! I’ve had bent/broken tabs for nearly 20 years 🤣😂🤣 @Outsane to the rescue!

Finally replaced those stretched out back seat pockets for some nicer ones.

Swapped the broken power seats for manual seats. Everything went great, but now 3 of my 4 power windows don’t work. Guess one of the plugs for the seats also runs the windows?

Got done with “phase one” of my drawer system. The space in the back is for a second battery that will be coming soon ish. Of course after everything was assembled and in the truck I realized I mounted the drawer slide mirrored. And after...

I just got them in today. My kids had the land cruiser and not been home. They fit awesome. Quality is great. I'm definitely ordering a rear one.

Went to the beach on this rainy day

@Mandrake I feel it didn't helped for me- but i don't have an ambient engine temp sensor to really know. I installed them 2 weeks ago and i also have hood risers. Fyi....shouldnt help/effect ECT. Only to help the heat in the engine bay to escape.

Finished up my older son's swing out. His is the one on the Right. Just need to find time to finish one more with my youngest.

Center register directly from Toyota Ordered the passenger side from SOR

Still got some more hacking to do with the brackets for it to sit a bit more flush, but, its in! I need to play with the colors a bit more to find what matches better
