    Upper tail gate fix or replacement?

    I used car car-part.com. It’s been a few years, but I also bought an 05 that had a lot of rust on the rear hatch. The one I found was a different color. Had to have it repainted but it’s been great ever since. Just make sure you seal the third brake light. That’s where the water gets in and...

    I love my 100 series back in GA but now I’m really tempted to move to Costa Rica!

    Using AI to help maintain my older LC

    Great idea! I find the search function on here to be a challenge as well. Even when I know the answers are buried somewhere.

    SOLD Portland, Oregon: 2013 LC200 Amazon Green 103k miles

    I don’t think anyone on this thread was being disrespectful, but I’m still surprised at how often people criticize asking prices. Clearly, the seller is an enthusiast who babies his cruisers, especially this one. As someone who does the same with my 05, I would ask a premium for it if I ever...

    SOLD Portland, Oregon: 2013 LC200 Amazon Green 103k miles

    I’ll never understand the shade some people throw at fellow Cruiser owners over their asking prices. As a collective, shouldn’t we all want our vehicles to sell for more? This one is a unicorn. I’d love to see what it would go for on BatT.

    Suspension overhaul advice for bone stock LC100

    Based on my research on here, I did the OME 2865 Springs and OEM shocks. No regrets! It rides great. Sits about 1.5 inches – maybe 2 higher. cranked the torsion bars as well. Not enough to need diff drop. Good to go!

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Scored some 20’ deck boards off FB marketplace. Rhino Rack load bars are legit.

    Real-time help ignition switch removal

    Never mind. I got it out. I wasn’t pushing the copper spring loaded plate in far enough to turn it completely upside down. What a waste! The part I ordered wasn’t correct. And the one I pulled out looks fine. I don’t know if later years had a newer design, but it seems thicker in the spot that...

    Real-time help ignition switch removal

    Just posted on a newer thread, but I am desperate to find someone who knows what they’re doing so I’m repeating it here. I am replacing the rod as a PM on my 05 Land Cruiser. I’m heading to rural Alabama tomorrow. I have everything apart and removed the white plastic piece behind the cylinder...

    Busted ignition - ignition cylinder rod replacement

    I hope somebody that knows what they’re doing can help me soon! I’m supposed to leave for rural Alabama tomorrow. I have everything apart on my 05. I was doing this fix as a PM because my ignition was starting to stick after I left it to get the tires rotated. I figured one of the techs turned...

    1.5 OME lift and Toyota OEM Shocks

    Sorry, just saw this. I did not need to re-index. Assuming yours haven’t been tightened before, you shouldn’t either.

    1.5 OME lift and Toyota OEM Shocks

    I’ve had this setup for years, although I didn’t swap out my torsion bars. Just cranked them a bit. Rides great!
