So I take it no one has thought about this, or no one has tried it? I guess getting to the front 2 bolts are more difficult as you have to pop out the cup holders. The rear bolts are easy to get to.

Well, after owning many Toyota’s ( ‘88 4Runner, ‘89 Supra, ‘94 LC, ‘00 Corolla, ‘01 Corolla, ‘12 4Runner, ‘13 Tacoma, and a ‘14 Sienna), which we traded in the Sienna and tested the waters on a used 2018 Chevy Traverse for 2 years (28k-36k miles)….we came right back to Toyota. Don’t get me...

So we just purchased a 2017 Platinum Sequoia and ran into a little snag with having 2 car seats and wanting to use the 3rd row. We got over it.. literally by stepping over the center console, but it got me thinking… 80% of the time we will run with the console in. But has anyone made a quick...

Do you mind sharing how you modded the front AVS/TEMS sensor mounts on the front when you used the spacer? I assume you had to lengthen the shaft from the stepper motor to the shock adjustment?

The rear camera sprayer is “T” into the rear window sprayer. Not sure who originally found this, but here is the link to the nozzle/kit for GX’s (I used Chrome’s translate capability): https://cleancam.ru/omyvateli-kamery-lexus/omivatel-kameri-zadnego-vida-lexus-gx/

Recently completed this mod along with the rear Russian camera spray nozzle, since I had to take the back panel off for both. (Might as well only remove that gummy plastic once.). Turned out well, and very easy to do. I tapped into the switch wiring side and used a 7.2V battery molex connector...

It would have been good to lead with the sensors are not in a factory bumper. Now, the sensors were installed in your bumper, are they using the factory bezels, none, or an aftermarket set of bezels? I ask, because after installing my metal bumper (with aftermarket/eBay bezels) they worked...

Funny, how I took a similar approach during the same timeframe you posted this, with a slightly different switch panel (only a 6 button one from Amazon). But, The one I chose comes with a bracket to mount on top the dash. Instead I flipped the switches over and bent the bracket around the back...

And another stock suspension with 265/70/R17 BFG KO2 Some rubbing initially, but a heat gun and force fixed it. And if you prefer a Batman theme 😁 And this combo fits the spare location as well. Probably about the largest you can go without letting air out and using a ratchet strap to...

The tube guard (steel) is actually bolted through the aluminum main bumper body with some rather large bolts. With the threaded part inside of the tube. The aluminum bumper (I’ll have to check thickness) is then bolted to the winch cradle (which is steel). All bolts are carriage bolts that go...

So I finally picked a company (Trail Ready) for a front bumper and they were able to slightly alter their original configuration to accommodate, and retained all the options I wanted. Retain headlight sprayers (because the location of the cut stock bumper retained them) Retain parking sensors...

You could do that. But if you ever need to work in that area you may have to fight the wiring harness rather than simply unplugging and moving it, or the component at the end of the harness fails, you’ll need to cut/splice again. Like I said the PHH is in that general area, so if that hasn’t...

Excellent! A few questions to confirm though: - If you lock the rig, will that button still work if you have the keys INSIDE the vehicle? ( or do you have to unlock it first?) - If locked, and keys are not near vehicle, I assume the button will not function? I’ve had something like this on my...

Late to this thread @PNWTreeOctopus , but glad @voodu3 put that image up of both connector sides for you I made one like it years ago when I had the issue, that may be gone now, since I don’t have the 80 series anymore, but a gx460 (150 series)....so still in a cruiser family 👍 And like I...

Does anyone know the circuit/fuse the under truck running board lights are on? This is for a ‘13 GX460 premium. They come on when you get close to vehicle or open a door... but they aren’t on the DOME circuit, as I’ve removed that fuse under the hood and they still come on (fuse #49 on page...
