Adding another data point, over a year in. Transmission temps still run high on low speed off roading. Usually see 210-230 on uphill climbing in the San Juans of CO. 230F climbing up Imogene on a 55F outside temp day with very light payload. I noticed other vehicles fans roaring, and I can't...

Obligatory Imogene pics from Sunday. LC performed up to my expectations, except for transmission temps reaching 230F (even in 4Lo manual mode). For those wondering, Imogene is open from the Ouray side and closed on the Telluride side.

Impressive flex! Is that a Dobinsons shock in the rear? Curious what suspension you went with. Saw a ‘25 GX with the stock 1” lift today, so now I’m looking at suspension options since it’s been awhile since I last looked. The extra 1” adds a lot more than I thought in the looks department...

I wish Toyota would give us an EV mode on the 250. Mainly to not start the ICE when I’m rearranging the stable. Then I wouldn’t feel the need to get the ICE up to operating temp for oil quality issues. Would be cool if someone created a tuner or hack for this. Pretty sure all the capabilities...

How do you like the day to day driving experience of an FJ40?

I own a ‘73 FJ40, ‘88 FJ62, ‘11 6MT FJC, ‘24 250, grew up driving a ‘78 FJ40 (still in the family), and have driven an ‘18 200 (only a day though). The 250 is fine. The gas tank is too small as everyone knows. Number one complaint. Other than that it’s a reliable Toyota to me until it breaks...

1958 18” is 32.5

1958 vs GX Overtrail. SDM is not necessary IMO.

$20k

An actual weight caught in the wild. Otw out to SE Utah I helped myself to the state line scales. Handy. Will add more of the breakdown in a future edit below. This includes 460 lbs of dog and human. Same rig from OP, but a few more mods and additions. Handled fine at this weight and the rear...

Recent outing to Beef Basin

Desert season

Didn't know there would be a setting to adjust brightness - is this through techstream? Which part number? 81080-60460 is the one I ordered. The one I got doesn't have a part number stamp - just a UL2W131 stamped on the end of it. It has a white rubbery lens cover. Didn't know there was one...

Dig into the parts diagrams online and you should find these fairly easily. Try Longo Toyota parts.

81080-60460 is NOT the passenger footwell LED. Doesn't fit. The harness connection exists on my 1958, but my search continues since the parts diagrams are very obscure for this light.
