    Repurposed Phone Buttons Steering Wheel

    I’d like to hear results as well! If we had a wiring diagram of them that would help. My initial thoughts were to wire volume up and down, and mute=pause.

    Yes ethanol free and not topping off is the solution! I ran into fuel vapor issues at altitude before, switched to ethanol free and had no issues.

    Very cool to see a bolt on tire carrier option! I’m curious why the clamp on the swing arm is at an angle. Are you trying to put radial compression into the spindle?

    Recovery points with stock bumper

    Plastic bumpers deform elastically. Stock tow hooks work just fine, anyone who says otherwise can either provide proof of their failures or quiet down.

    Looks really good. What’s the reason for the aftermarket load bars over stock ones?

    Buying a banged up LX470, wise choice?

    Buy whichever has better maintenance records. Also it’s hydraulic suspension, not air. You would have better reliability with the non-hydraulic Land Cruiser version of the suspension.

    Toyota sale, 25% off wholesale and free shipping WOW

    Serra Toyota is showing some heavy discounts off MSRP right now. Is that typical or would this be considered a sale? Wondering if I should wait on these items:

    Surfboards + Roof Box + Factory Rack = Brainteaser

    Unless you’re pretending SUP’s are surfboards, you should be able to fit the surfboards next to the rooftop box. Slide the box alllllll the way to one side, I’m thinking a normal ~24” board will fit. Layer on top of each other with padding in between. I wouldn’t put the boards on top of the box...

    100 Series Sliders: My 4-year Review of White Knuckle sliders (AHC 2-leg version)

    Maybe it’s my eyes but did they sleeve the frame holes as well?

    AHC shops in Colorado?

    Agreed, as a guy who wheels with AHC on 33’s I think it’s much more the driver than the system capabilities. Add some lockers and you’ll be great!

    Did you bend the White Knuckle sliders or why the concerns on strength? You have ridden them probably as hard as anyone has. If you can’t bend them nobody can :)
