So, I have my OnX set to auto renew from the bank account, I dont even think about it. Apparently my wife looked at the bank in the middle of the night, and then almost woke me up to know why the hell I was on porn sites buying such things....She...
Bought my 08 with 200k miles on it 6 years ago. Now has 278k with normal maintenance under my care, and unknown maintenance prior. No unexpected issues that would imply a need for more maintenance.
The only thing I wish had been done earlier...
Did the Loncky steering wheel thing today for my flaky '17 wheel.
Meh...some parts are good, but some of the corners around the columns are pretty shaky. Took me like 4-5 hours and I'm not 100% happy. May end up pulling down and reworking it...
Hey Y'all,
If you're due for a Valve Cover Gasket Job, we have a 2-Part video series that will help you get the job done. I have to say, it's a bit of a pain in the butt to do a valve cover gasket job on this engine, but hopefully with our...
Method 705s, 17X8, 35mm offset. 285/70R17 K03s. I painted the hub dust caps black initially but ended up using cryptyk's 3d file to get a center cap extension built via Shapeways.
Hello everybody ;-)
It hasn’t been a week, exactly but I’ve just collected my car from the wrapper last night and put on the new tyres today.
- satin wrap, dual colour
- alloys renovated and powder coated in satin black
- rear “LC” decor, rear...
I know I'm 3 years late on this thread, but I just have to say thank you!! Your hypothesis was absolutely correct. My steering column rattle was about to drive me insane, especially after replacing my sway bar end links and bushings last week...
When the wheel came off, I was on the shoulder in the grass. You will need to replace the front wheel studs, and then you should be up and running. The front wheel and tire should be in the back of the rig; that is where I left it...

BTW I know about the DONGAR brand and others but thought I show you guys a fun and low cost alternative.
What you’ll need:
12V to 5V DC-DC buck converter
Staple gun steel staples (hammered flat)
Soldering iron, solder, and...
Genuinely interested in what this guy has to say but listening to him speak and watching him is about as enjoyable as punching myself in the face repeatedly. My god that dude just annoys the piss out of me.
Just did this mod, different light. Total Cost for $35. Light can do Red and White which is what I was hoping for.

I am a huge fan of the new GX, best looking and capable Lexus ever... HOWEVER much like the 300 series, these new vehicles are smaller inside. Comparing to the 200, especially in the rear seat (2nd row) space is much more limited...
Nice love tap from someone on my hitch cover gave me the motivation to cut her up. Got the hole as small as possible while still leaving enough room to install the hitch pin for this Agency 6 shackle block. About 3/8 to 1/2 inch gap all the way...
Thanks for this info. Having the door refuse to close during freezing temps has been a real pain.
To add to this thread - For anyone afraid of drilling a hole, no worries. Adding a small rubber grommet will make it look good as new afterward. I...
A quick update. I’ve been sourcing parts for this project. Managed to find some shocks and ahc spring. King on the background is what the truck is on now. They are not ktrs-79. But blue KTRR-CB131 for lc200. They are soft, but no plans for ahc...
There is a trail connected-to by turning left off 50, directly across from the historic prison.
A right turn off that road (first or second right, IIRC) eventually dead-ends at the top of this hill.
The red arrow demarks the furthest I've been...
Getting coolant on a belt can permanently ruin the belt, causing noise even after the coolant has dries up.
After having this happen to me, I'm now always extremely careful never to let coolant spill on belts when doing service or repairs. If...
