    Reminder to replace your Heater Ts!

    The only trick is getting the bottom hose (middle section) to fit in this fitting - as I believe the ID is slightly smaller (1/2in vs 5/8) than the crosses? But that may also mean you can reuse the clamps potentially.

    Reminder to replace your Heater Ts!

    Scars, scares, it's all too close. I also hope folks also get a good laugh out of this (be it with my foul language).

    Reminder to replace your Heater Ts!

    I figure the metal ones are a "lifetime" replacement but happy to have others chime in. If I put OEM Toyota ones, I'd plan to change it every 90k and/or timing belt service.

    Reminder to replace your Heater Ts!

    This is reminder that you should replace your heater Ts before it's too late! The story: I parked in my driveway after a quick trip to the gas station (the 100 series' natural habitat) and smelled burning coolant. I popped the hood and started poking around looking for potential leaks as...

    For Sale @ High Desert Cruisers

    I'm selling my Gamiviti Rack setup that's been used on my 100-series LX 470 for ~4 years now. It works great and the only reason I'm selling is I've moved to a full-time Alu-cab RTT setup and just don't need both. The rack is a partial exo setup (extruded lower part to 2nd row), sunroof...

    For Sale @ High Desert Cruisers

    **FREE** I have 4 wheels & tires from my 03 LX470, a spare 5th wheel, and a set of snow chains that are looking for a new owner. The tires are 270/70R18 Duratracks and they’re fairly worn. Some tread probably usable for off road, but not more than a few thousand miles left on road. They ran...

    CVT Mt Hood RTT

    Great review, super helpful, thanks a ton for sharing. I think this may be my next RTT for my 100 series. A few questions: 1. Could you move the side latter mounts back so that you could open the rear side door with the latter deployed and not contact? Or would it be too aft to get into the...

    For Sale @ High Desert Cruisers

    I have a Foxwing 270 Awning from Oztent for sale. It has served me well for the past few years but I have since gone with a more freestanding option. The awning was purchased new around 2017 or so and has been deployed dozens of times. I had opened it in the wind once where I broke the plastic...

    Hi Desert Cruisers, I know i'm not the most active here, but I am in somewhat urgent need of help to find a new wheel option for me. I just got back from a trip up into the Sangre de Cristos where I ended up bending a rim on my 03 LX470 100 series around Greenie Peak, just north of Red River...
