Installed my Budbuilt sliders that showed up this week. Kickout and topless. Was not the funnest self install project. None of my daughters were interested in helping old dad out working on the car so I told the wife I may have to build a robot...

I'm interested!

For my 50th birthday my amazing bride of 28 years surprised me with a '14 black on black 200! I know, I know, I am super spoiled in many ways. A big thanks with the help and consultation from @RocketCityCrzrs she found a great bone stock one...

I just used a universal power steering filter from Napa. On the return side before the reservoir. I would definitely do it again. About a 10 minute install. I won’t run another Cruiser without one. It’s just for catching contaminates and metal...

What in line filter did you use? Would you install that same filter again or have you found a better option now with your experience with the system?

Thank you @4gotalot for the big deflector it’s perfect! A lot of cutting to get the lift kit on and it’s now rollin on my rubicoon 33s Next is trim cut hammer a bunch more till it can turn more then 10 degrees

First step of turning my Toyota into a joop is complete.

THank you. Many people have helped me over the years here and they continue to do so. I have bought cruisers here. Never sold one. They seem to accumulate at my house. People here have been my family and it has been wonderful. I really am...

Well we didn’t make it too far up towards flathead pass Got stuck, Spent some time digging and using the max tracks. Then I had the bright idea to try to turn around and we got really stuck Fortunately a tree was nearby, pulled some cable and...

At least on the 2010 model, removing the steering shafts does not require any involvement of the steering column. All you do is disconnect the single bolt that holds the upper intermediate shaft to the steering column shaft. Then the...

As noted earlier in this thread, I had a clunk in my steering wheel that was caused by a torn rubber boot on the steering shaft at the firewall. Fixing that took care of the vast majority of the noise. But over the past year I've noticed some...

Love my stock sized K02 in Load range E. I like the ride, the noise (I’m half deaf from flying my Beaver), and the handling. But I’m old school.

Bud built if you want the most heavy duty and most access!

Thanks all for participating in this, here are the results if anyone’s curious. Survey Results

Blackstone really knows their clientele, the way they gush over the care of your engine is akin to getting a glowing report at a parent teacher conference for your 8 year old. I pay them for the important data but I come back for the attaboys.

Good times using all the recovery tools, fun day in the snow. We winched, jerked, maxxtraxed, and dug.

I’ve been a mud member for many years (mostly in the 80’s forum, as I’m on my 4th 80). New to the 200 club, and figured I would start a thread for this new (to me) Cruiser! I have to start by giving a shout out to the previous/original owner...

***Please note we had to go outside of our norm for this month (to work within our host’s schedule), and this meeting will be ON A MONDAY. Next Monday in fact. Ok, so for many who live in or near the Gallatin Valley, it is hard to own a Toyota...

I've been planning out a very basic camping setup that is easy, not terribly expensive and requires no modifications except for a minor one. Items involved: - Window Sox - Land Cruiser Rain Guards (slight modification) - Vertx Storage Cubes -...

This is me currently so I’m out

O man. Good to see everyone's safe. Definitely due to wheel nut torque. If I had to wager, this issue came about prior to your trip to Les Schwab. For whatever reason, and you might be able to fill in who last worked on the wheels, it is more...

FWIW I found it easier to get a Autel TPMS tool (MaxiTPMS TS508). It was under $125 and I've used it on many other cars. I can walk around to each wheel and read each sensor. Then plug into OBD port and program the LX570. Works great and way...

its amazing what trickle charging the battery overnight, using a new key, and a bottle of HEET will do to an old pickup. think it defiantly got some bad fuel or water in the lines and the new key trick worked. so happy i didnt try and mess with...

update: I finally got back to this. I used my modified socket and some 1/2” steel rod and was able to get the other tube close to round again. It was a pain. It probably took me 2 hours as access was tight. Ran it for 30 min and then...
