Brakes are incredibly easy and relatively inexpensive parts wise for this truck. I actually buy most of my LC parts from OEMLexus.com (Lexus Carlsbad) and they are usually the cheapest. I priced out OEM pads and rotors and it was like $450 shipped.

Wow that looks better than an HE!

Black’s beach! Gettin freaky!

check FB/offerup. Two types selling theses wheels, the I know what I got crowd, and rim shops selling takeoffs. I got mine from the latter and ended up getting a smoking deal on five matching ones (there are technically three different part numbers that cover different finishes and embossed text...

I live in so cal and my truck has seen snow in CA and NV, both use salt brine. I picked up a trick from a friend, he’s got one of those old school sprinklers that attach to the hose. We just leave it on under the truck for about 20 minutes and it gets about 90% of the underside. When I get back...

Yea I agree it’s not light. Dissent has provisions to mount it on a swing out. Check out stellar’s “corporate cruiser” project with a pro eagle jack.

Vin checks out on NHTSA vin checker

I have the badlands 3 ton off road jack. I wanted a floor style jack. With the knobbie tires I’ve had no issue using it in sand, dirt, and rocks. The saddle extension gives almost 30” of height. It takes up a little more space in the back but for the piece of mind it’s worth it to me. I picked...

One of the trucks I looked at last year when I was on the hunt was a 2020 HE. It had 30k miles, looked brand new, and was Toyota gold CPO at $70k. The only thing “wrong” with it was it was sitting on brand new RW’s instead of the gold OEM wheels. No one wanted it. It sat at Longo Toyota for 30...

not to take anything away from your build but holy crap

We had a similar issue in the wife’s w205 c63. The service manager blamed it on hand lotion but I feel it’s a cop out. I suppose when I do the 10 year refresh on my truck I’ll probably pick up a steering wheel and two front seat cushions.

Viofo a329 using a Dongar adapter. Tucked up behind the rear view mirror. Very happy with the setup.

Just got an email from shock surplus they are back in stock on rears. Also saw on IG that wheeleveryweekend just received a pallet of bilsteins.

The ceramic stuff has come such a long way. Both Xpel and STEK offer amazing products.

Changed my oil today. Did a bolt check, everything was still snug (used blue Loctite). Oil drain and filter doors came out no problem. tried to keep everything clean but found about 30 seconds into the oil draining it starting dripping back into the skid plate. Ugh. Spent 20 mins cleaning it out...
