    Downgrading Suspension? Need Advice on Shock Options

    Curious what you ended up going with, I am also currently leaning towards Ironman Foam Cell Pros or Dobinson. Both are more costly than the OME kits I can find but I have not gathered the best impression from those from the feedback on this site.

    Another Build Thread - 2005 LC100 “Frankie”

    HVAC Drain Extension - The HVAC drains through the front passenger firewall. On my 05, you can see a black triangular-ish piece going from the bottom of the condenser to the bottom of the passenger footwell. Over time, and due to the lack of an in-cabin air filter on many LC100s (see thread)...

    HVAC Cabin Air Filter Modification - as discussed on many threads on this site, there is not an in cabin filter for many years, if not all years of the US LC100, I’ve seen a few threads of people saying theirs came with it, mine did not. This is odd for an offroad vehicle and can lead to poor...

    HVAC Condenser Gasket Replacement (Passender Floorboard Drip Fixed) - When I purchased the vehicle, I noticed a slow but persistent drip coming from under the passenger side dashboard.

    Blower Fan Clean - AC was extremely loud on the highest fan speed. Removed the blower fan, cleaned and took our debris. Remounted and AC is now quiet at all fan speeds. This is really easy, there’s 3 screws securing the blower fan underneath the passenger side glove box. Disconnect the blower...

    Tires - The vehicle came with 3 different tires and no spare - hence the name Frankie, as in, Frankenstein’s monster made from different parts. After driving it 1,500 miles from Lexington KY to Charlotte NC to Tulsa OK, I opted to get matching tires all around. I intend to do some wheeling with...

    Another Build Thread - 2005 LC100 “Frankie”

    After purchasing a 2024 LC 250 in September of 2024, I quickly fell in love with 4x4s and sought my perfect build on that platform. Before I got too far along, I realized it was not a long term solution for me and my family of 5, 7 if you count the dogs. The 250 was nice in a lot of aspects, but...

    Nice! I saw your post about sunroof seal, I actually tackled this myself recently using info from this thread: DIY: Sunroof Weatherstrip Replacement - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/diy-sunroof-weatherstrip-replacement.994096/.

    Hey there friends, I'm a new 100 series owner in Tulsa, OK. This website has been hugely helpful in tips / tricks as I work on my build and decide what is worth my time as a DIYers vs leaving to the pros. Im fairly new to overlanding but have taken my 250 (prado, I know) on a few trips. There...
