That is corret. Rear Crossmember...not a bumper. See you all soon....:)

The NEW 100 Series is armed with the "new" Smart Key. It is a Fob(or Phob or how ever you spell it...:) So, put the fob in your pocket and get into the Cruiser...then touch the On/Off Button and up she starts. A Toyota that is armed with a Smart Key now will have a small black circle or...

Yeah. We are on the verge of the 1st Gen. Prius' being considered "old." Better yet as I sat there and thought about the safety aspects for those responding to an accident and touching the car. Yeah, there are issues for when you/we work on the Hybrids, but imagine trying to "work" on a car...

Thought I might share this information with everyone. A new topic is always good to see/have. Last night Toyota invited it's wholesale customer's to a dinner and a lecture on Hybrid vehicles. The presenter was the head hybrid engine technology expert here in the states...he had a German...

Cruiser Solutions now offers this high quality art work T-Shirt of an 1981 HJ47 Troop Carrier. We have had T-shirt envy for some time now, so we decided to have our own shirt made. The detail in the Troop Carrier is first rate! It took the designer about 35-40 hours to draw out the Troop...

We have the same problem... We purchased an 1994 FZJ80 a few weeks ago. Just getting to looking at it now. Bought it with the knowledge that it had a blown HG. However, after closer inspection we found that there is NO mixing of coolant into the oil(pan). Rather odd we thought. The rad...

The ARB Bull Bar is on BACK ORDER with every distributor. ARB just received about 120 bars this past Monday. There will be another shipment in late June to early July(about 100 bars or so) These too are pre-sold to distibutors and their customer's. Your best bet to get a Bull Bar this year is...

That's all she wrote for this install. Maybe we can do a LIVE install on your favorite FJ accessory in the future. What might that be? Watch for the Warn Winch install soon. Looks like it might be the 9.5xp. Look for a review later after we drive it with th Bull Bar and IPF's. Thanks to...

More pictures

Here are the final pictures....sorry for the delay here. We decided to zip tie up the splash guards so as to not cut them and think about the ytransition cover/plate....:)

Just bolted on at this point...they good though....

Next IPF Lights...JO-1's 85watt Hybrid Driving and Fog Lamps. As you can see IPF does the install kit very well. Everything we/you will need to hook these lights up. We were going to install the 900XS's, but wanted more options for light at night. Again, we will install the Fog Insert Lights...

A few observations. The gap between the body and the top of the BB is about 3/4 to 1" We have installed the Sahara Bar by ARB on a few 100 Series Land Cruiser's and ARB provides a "weatherstrip" type of rubber to be placed between these two areas that don't come into complete contact. I...

We are still discussing the gap/hole left in front of the wheel, at the back of the BB. I think we are going to leave it for now. We will cut the extra inner splash guard and build a transition type of plate later.

The electrical extension line is provided with the lights. Getting them to scotch into the stock harness is a little tough. Tight working conditions...small hands good for this. ARB also provides some ground lines for a winch when installed..nice to see.
