Hello all - just got to Houston a couple months ago. Had a long series of events with my triple locked 96 LC. Started off with a stolen cat then the driveshaft broke and punctured the oil pan while being towed to replace the cat. Just picked her back up from the repair shop and have a slight...

Awesome. Thank you!

I've seen a few different sizes throughout the thread, but wanted to confirm - how deep are the threads on the useless cubby angle block? Wanted to make sure i get the right length ram ball attachment. Thanks!

Thank you. I was on 4XOverland US and saw a bunch of SKUs as accessories underneathe on the kit page but couldn't find what they associated with. Taking the easy way out here - but what you say are the essential accessories needed to run the lift? It sounds like your rig was outfitted...

I intend on adding the rear tire carrier to the bumper as well, but the winch would be a lot further down the road, as well as the trailer. So you believe that even unloaded, unarmored (currently), and winch-less, drive performance on road would still be better than OME? Also, i know its...

How much gear would you load that caused that? Im assuming it was what you described loading in the paragraph above? I'm also not plnning on getting a winch, anytime soon at least, which means a lot of weight off the front.

I truly appreciate all the responses. The two somewhat negative experiences above (based on weight variables not against slinky) are the kind of testimonials that make me weary with slinky being my choice. I guess I always figured a strong suspension would be the foundation of the mods done...

Realizing there will be delays in receiving anything I figured I'd try to dial in exactly what I need. I was looking at the Intermediate Stage 1 Slinky. My LC is currently on OMEs from PO with no exterior armor or anything adding a ton of weight. I'm looking at the intermediate as I only plan...

PM sent.

If anyone is bored and wants to chime in - looking for initial thoughts on these 2: https://philadelphia.craigslist.org/ctd/d/levittown-1996-toyota-land-cruiser-diff/7214568825.html My thoughts - very clean, underbody looks good but also seems to clean/possibly painted over? Im waiting on the...

Unfortunately gone now haha. Given my situation I'm gonna have to be quicker$ unfortunately its hard to drop everything and travel quickly to another state.

Oh damn, thanks!

Great point! I guess I read the no rust and runs perfect claims as evidence that maintenance has been kept up. Also being that he is an avid/multiple LC collector or at least owner, I assumed he maintained or at least baselined all of them. Again, great point, ill have to ask about maintenance...

Anyone have thoughts? Not sure if the owner is on here, but $17k is a bit more than I wanted to spend but it seems like a rare, good condition, maintained LC with lockers. Anyone think $17k is worth it, including the higher (not extremely high, I know) mileage...
