    Hey @BenCC , any photos or videos of your SAE quad ambers in lx or lc? I'm very interested in how they throw light installed. Looking to upgrade my fogs

    100 Series LX470 8HP swap

    @Papa Wickey - Love the progress! Question: Without the lockers and loss of ATRAC, would the left foot braking be a recipe for breaking the front diff? This just recently happened with the TFL 100 series, but it also had atrac. Not sure, but wanted to throw that concern out there.

    98 Land Cruiser OEM rear locking diff in 2000 lx470? Can it be simple?

    I occasionally see OEM rear diff locks pop up for sale like the picture below. Can I just take out my current diff and stick this in the axle and bolt right up? I would get an aftermarket wiring harness to avoid the ECU stuff.

    TCC Bull Bar - Has anyone installed one of these?

    The lower price now makes it competitive with other options

    TCC Bull Bar - Has anyone installed one of these?

    How much did you grind off? Where did you have to fish the bolt in? Also, once it wasn't interfering with frame, did you have to adjust for it to be level (like Ironman)?

    TCC Bull Bar - Has anyone installed one of these?

    Thank you guys for the detailed pics and experiences! After you cut frame horns, was there a separate piece that mounted before you put on the bumper. Like ironman or arb?

    TCC Bull Bar - Has anyone installed one of these?

    I agree, but before I contemplate spending about 2x the cost, I would like to know real world experiences. Also, the instructions for it are terrible! It's a 5 page pdf (also on TCC website) that is incredibly vague. I emailed to ask if there was a more comprehensive instruction book, and they...

    TCC Bull Bar - Has anyone installed one of these?

    Thank you for mentioning. I did notice that, I called Long Range and they said 1 person with an LX470 installed, just had to push grille back a little. Which seems like the standard for LX470, and or cutting off the radio/cb tabs on bumper which is fine with me.

    TCC Bull Bar - Has anyone installed one of these?

    Hi All, No luck in the search. I am curious if anyone has installed/seen the TCC bull bar for the 100 series? I really like the design and that it doesn't seem to stick out as far as other bumber options. Looking on forum and the internet in general, I can't seem to find any reviews or...

    Firewall pass through on LX470 with AHC

    Welp, I didn't think about that! Hmmm, I've looked at the driver side grommet and I don't see a nipple. I'm open to driver side. Do you have pics of your set up?

    Firewall pass through on LX470 with AHC

    Question - I have a 2000 LX470 with AHC and I am in the early stages of planning to add aux lighting. Have read numerous threads, many talk about either going through the rubber grommet on the driver side (near brake booster) or the passenger (AHC) side. They mention a "nipple" on the grommet...
