    Found the perfect combo tire BFG Trail Terrain.

    Thanks, Geoff. I never had my KO2s higher than about 46 PSI. Hope you all are doing well. Still towing that Lance 2185? We switched to a Lance 1995 4 years ago and the tongue weight is nearly 200 lbs lighter than what I had with my Lance 2285. So we should be good with C Load (or what they...

    Found the perfect combo tire BFG Trail Terrain.

    I am about to do my seasonal snow tire swap from Nokia's to my KO2s. I noticed the KO2s are a bit torn up on the inside. And given that I don't expect to do any rock crawling in the future - just forest trails - I am considering a lighter tire. I don't need E-rated. But I do two a 6000#...

    So I think the Michelin Defender is the perfect all-terrain tire... (For most of us)

    Thanks, Everyone, great input! Lots to think about but you all have given me some great options. I must admit that I am intrigued with the idea of a 275 tire. And P rated if it is “good enough”. My Nokian snow tires are actually 285/60R18 and they seem to work fine though I don’t tow over...

    So I think the Michelin Defender is the perfect all-terrain tire... (For most of us)

    Great timing for this thread. I have a roadtrip from Bend, OR to Denver coming in about 3 weeks. I have been running KO2s on my trucks since 2016. But I am doing little offloading anymore and what I do is rather mild. Think 90% pavement, not towing. 5% pavement and towing. 5% "mild...

    200-series Pinnacle of "Land Cruiser" in the States?

    This is so much fun! We now have so much more information. And so much still to speculate about. At least we have some real data into where Lexus (and eventually Toyota) are headed. The problem for me is that there is almost too much. The new Sequoia. The 300/LX600. And now this...

    K02 Tire Pressure?

    Hey, @gaijin, I just put on some Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 SUV 285/60 R18 R 116 snow tires on my 2021 LC. Discount Tire set them at 38. Is that correct? Thanks!

    Gas mileage

    I haven't been on MUD for months but with the price of gas where it is I checked in to see if there was a post about this particular question. Here is my setup and what I am seeing. - LC Alone. 2021 HE w/ Slee sliders, Gamivitti roof rack and 65/285 KO2s. A single ARB drawer. Weight with me...

    ARB drawer install questions

    Just noticed this thread. I have had 1 drawer and 2 and had to move them from one LC to another. You've done a good job with this one! Someone asked about only doing one side so that you can have one of the jump seats in and the post above does a nice job of showing this with the left side...

    Ladder Options

    I don't know if this helps but there are 2 options for the "200 series". One is for the manual lift gate which is what is on all of the 200-series LCs before 2018. There is a second option for the 2018+ models that have the automatic lift gate which may(?) have been inherited from the LX. I...

    Ladder Options

    So sorry, @YellowDoor! I have not been paying much attention to MUD over the past few months. Yes, I like the "grid" but I would call it a platform rather than a floor. There are not sides or bars around it. It sits on top of the rack. Note that I did choose for my Gamiviti rack to be in...

    Where are you storing jumper cables?

    Thanks, @TeCKis300, that is a great suggestion. For me it would not be for jumper cables as I, like many on this thread, keep a Lithium jump pack in my LC which I have use on multiple occasions. I’ve used it after a year of not being charged and it had not problem starting my LC battery from a...

    200 series picture thread

    It was awesome to visit with you all as well! (We should have taken a pic of our two white LC side by side! Next time.)

    Why might my 4YO ARB Compressor Blow It's Fuses?

    So I took the non-DIY route and purchased a replacement which arrives today. That said, I am trying to decipher all of the great advice here to make sure that there is not something wrong with how I use it or how it is installed. Let me also point out another potential symptom that has been...

    Why might my 4YO ARB Compressor Blow It's Fuses?

    I thought I would do a follow up to this thread. After replacing the fuses everything worked fine until a few days ago. I was topping off the tires and half way through something seemed wrong. Even though I wasn't releasing any air through the trigger thing the compressor was still running...

    GOBI Ladder - Difference between the manual lift gate and automatic lift gate versions

    When I traded in my 2016 LC (manual rear lift gate) for a 2021 LC/HE I had the dealership transfer, or attempt to transfer, my aftermarket mods including my GOBI ladder. But they couldn't install the ladder on the new model with the automatic lift gate. In the models with automatic lift gates...
