Updated to pics should show now. Trying to figure out how I could possibly get that much lift out of same kit then? Or how i reduce

2001 LC. Had shop install 2 inch Ironman lift kit along with differential drop. Fine for few months then started hearing some light knocking. Took in and thought to be CV axles worn. Replaced and still had knocking sound only on takeoff then gone once over 5 or 10 mph. Kinda went away...

Promised I did search but feel free to call me out if missed. :) Looking for how others have mounted rooftop tents on their 100's. Seeing Malones and Thule bars used on generic non LC forums . Not needing a full 1k $ roof rack, trying to keep reasonable. Any advice appreciated. Plan to buy...

Thanks for lead. Reaching out to them now to see if have in stock.

Have a clunk/ clicking sound that has been narrowed down to front differential. Local well respected shop here says has tried multiple vendors and no parts are available to rebuild. Only way is to buy a new unit from Toyota for 3800 ... just over 5k with install. Had a hell of a time finding...

Yes came with the Ironman kit. Been on for over a year no issues. Still the CV angles looked extreme to me, but my knowledge is limited . The Stage 2 kit comes with a front differential drop kit to help correct front driveline angle reducing CV wear, and includes all brackets, spacers...

2001 Landcruiser 280k 2.5 Ironman lift with Freedom Upper control arms. Out of blue heard some louder clunking sound come from front end , mainly only when under power. Took to local shop and they were confident CV axles. Replaced for $600 and now similar sound, but quieter still there making...

Appreciate pics if anyone has replaced their fog lights ( mine are foggy and beyond restoration) with anything non stock. Just needing a fun easy mod.

Just in case anyone searches in future had East Ridge Transmission rebuild for 3400$ with 3 year warranty. Only place in town that was confident to do it. Was quoted over 6k for reman unit at ACC Atlanta and 4800 at AAMCO Chattanooga for used unit with 200k miles.

2001 Landcruiser with 262 miles. Transmission went out . Have had 2 shops look at it and neither think can rebuild and suggest swapping for used or replacement. I would pay for the replacement but cannot find any reman units available. Tried all the top google spots . Even called Toyota...

Called a few dealerships... at this point would jump on a sub 3k reman unit. But apparently this transmission is on back order/ discontinued depending on which parts department I get.

Follow up to previous thread. Have had 2 shops look at LC and being told will need new transmission. Quoted 4300 installed for used at both places. First shop doesnt rebuild... 2nd shop AAMCO hasnt rebuilt a LC and thinks could be more expensive. 2nd shop looking for reman unit . Looking...

Ha the above response tells me I need to get some further clarification from shop !

Not familiar with CDL term if you dont mind schooling me .

2001 LC. That was quoted price with installation. I say " trusted shop" as its a friend of a friends that owns... so take that with grain of salt. Also had concerns of validity of mileage. Havent gotten that far going to reach out to some other local shops and do some research on used vs...
