    Funny ... I was just looking at those, wondered the same thing, and wound up here. Hopefully someone has a pic.

    2018 Toyota Land Cruiser / Base Classic Silver Metallic / Black VIN: JTMCY7AJ1J4062992 52,500 Miles $70,000 This is my third LC. I’ve been slowly graduating from the 80, the 100, and finally the 200 since my LC love affair began in 2012. Each one started stock and modifications were made when...

    Looking for recommendations on Suspension setup that won't beat us up.

    I’ve been driving on the Bilstein 6112/5160 combo for 13 months. It’s a slightly stiffer ride than stock on paved roads - much better cornering. On fire roads, the ride is very smooth and controlled. It took the swampiness out of the rear end with a moderate amount of gear in the back. My...

    Steering wheel / cover or replace?

    Hi All, I dislike the wood bit on my steering wheel. I don't like the textural difference between the wood and the leather. And, it's a bear in the cold weather – chilly wood, warm leather (romantic song title perhaps?) Has anyone reading this covered their steering wheel with an...

    200 series camper suggestions?

    I'm a big fan of the Bean. It tows very well behind the 200.

    What did you drive before your LC 200

    1994 LC 2005 LC 2017 Ram Rebel 201X LC? I could use a little arm twisting to get into a 200. I have a 2017 Ram and dislike a few things compared to a 2016+ LC ... I really want to move back to a LC (I miss the ride quality). But as far as a practical/smart decisions go, the Ram suits my needs...

    Factory roof rack removal

    I was inspired by this thread (and because my new Rhino rack just arrived!!) this weekend and took my rack off. I have a 2004 LC with three pillars and the rack mounted to the roof with 12mm bolts. Besides getting the plastic covers off – where I consequently broke most of the tabs off – the job...

    lost the air conditioning

    OK, Thanks AMX390. I think this is a job best suited for a pro. I'll be taking it to a shop. Thanks for all your help. I understand the system a little more now.

    lost the air conditioning

    The truck is a 94. I haven't done any work on the AC since I bought it a few years ago. I'm not sure if it's R12 or R134. I understand that you can purge all the R134 and replace it with R12. Can I use the recharge cans at the auto store for this?

    lost the air conditioning

    98 SNAKE EATER ... the lines are chilly. It's a cool morning here however. I let the engine run for about 10 minutes and there is definitely a chill to them. AMX390 ... there are bubbles. Here are a couple videos: Bubbles: Compressor turning:

    lost the air conditioning

    I leave for a trip out to Colorado on the 7th and my air conditioning just petered out. It was there one day and then not. It did slowly drop out though — it wasn't all of a sudden. I know nothing about the air conditioning in an 80. What should I look for? I wonder if I just need to charge...
