Finally got my Huracan Fabrication tailgate storage installed. Cutting away the metal was a bit frightening given my track record with the “measure like 12 times, cut once, go back and get a new piece of lumber” process. But, everything seemed to work out. Will be nice to have some...

Not to resurrect a dead thread - but I wanted to share my experience with KO2's in the snow vs. actual snow tires. I put KO2s on my '95 80-series. My wife has a Sequoia with that we put Blizzaks DM-V2s on in the winter, since we live in North Idaho and do quite a bit of winter road-tripping...

Yeah. I kind of hate WalMart, and have a soft spot for Les Schwab. Whatever their prices, I've always gotten great customer service from Les Schwab. I knew I'd be paying a bit more, but I had no idea it'd be that much more.

I know there are a ton of Chinese manufactures making the same or similar bike lights, but I had a few that looked exactly like that (sold as MagicShines) that got hot enough to blister skin after 30 minutes or so of riding. I'd be nervous having that hot of a light in that location.

Thanks! If I can't get anywhere after getting all of Gamiviti's gears installed, I'll get in touch.

Finally got the new wheels and tires installed. Knockoff TRD Pro 16" wheels, with 285/75R16, BFG KO2s. It was a bit more of a saga than I'd hoped. After I ordered the wheels from eBay, I realized that I'd need spacers to fit the center caps. I know nothing about spacers, but after doing...

So far, I'm 0/2 on fixing my seats. Got 2x gears and caps, and replaced both of the outer gears. Now my driver's seat won't even make a sound like the motor's engaging going forward (it will going backwards), and the passenger seat moves just fine on the outer gear that I replaced, but doesn't...

I read through all 10-pages of this thread on the KO2's the other day. It sounds like they're very quiet, and a great all-around tire. Everyone who has them there likes them, with the one exception of @Stuparman who had a weird quality issue, but BFG took care of him. I was particularly...

I had a non-cruiser with a rodent problem, and after a thorough detail, Meguiar's Whole Car Air Refresher Odor Eliminator (the fogger thing that goes for like 15 minutes in your car) was the only thing that did the trick. I let one off in my cruiser when I picked it up the other week too...

What about trying a carpet cleaner? Check out "Hoover Platinum Collection Pet Plus Carpet and Upholstery Detergent" - $19 for what should be plenty for your carpets, and 4.4/5 stars on Amazon with nearly 900 reviews. I've had good luck with it in our carpets, and I imagine that if anything...

Another possible option: I ordered @FloridaFJ80's steering wheel leather to go along with the seat covers. My local upholstery shop didn't sound too excited about steering wheels, but I'll try and persuade them. Otherwise, I'm going to spend some time on Youtube and try out my baseball...

More pics coming soon. I've got a series of extreme offroad performance upgrades in the works, such as replacing a broken antenna, a broken tail light, windshield wipers and the window motors. After digesting a good number of tire and wheel threads, I'm thinking about these 16" TRD wheels...

Good news, the diffs lock, and unlock! I was a bit cocncerned when the seller said he'd never used them in the 6 years be had it.

It does indeed have the diff lock selector next to the steering wheel, but I haven't gotten beyond that. Oh, the Land Cruiser Heaven seat covers? I was looking at those earlier. Thanks!

Lucked out with the color too. My wife has a white '14 Sequoia with all black accents (I replaced the chrome door handles with black ones, and plasti-dipped everything else chrome on it), so I thought it'd be cool if I could find a white Cruiser to match. The thing on my shirt is a crab, from...
