Thank you guys, very helpful! @Bisho, I think I'm going to have to pull and inspect, I'm just a bit too paranoid I got it wrong.

Hi there. I'm in the middle of a CV reboot project, and I lost orientation of the tulip on the inboard CV joint. I'm not sure which way it goes back. I have two pics, which is correct? This is unfortunately the 2nd axle, and I didn't even notice the orientation on the first one, it could be in...

Fantastic, thanks! By the way, do you know whether those lugs that stick out of the bushings are supposed to be oriented left-right or forward-back? I've seen people saying both. If you did this job, did you manage to replace in place, or did you have to remove the rack? I know people with the...

That is super nice of you, but I think I'm going to replace the ball joints while I'm in there. Thanks for the offer!

I've found many options for replacement polyurethane steering rack bushings for my 2001 LC, but can't find rubber bushings. It seems user 2001LC has a source, but he doesn't want to "wipe out" his source, so won't share. Does anyone have a source that they are willing to share?

Great stuff, thanks so much for taking the time!

Hi, I'm going to reboot my CV axle boots because one is leaking. I've been trying to assemble a list of things to do "while I'm in there" and have decided I'd like also like to replace all bushings and rubber parts that I can. My cruiser is 23 years old, and I've had it for 10 years, used it...

There has been a couple of recent messages about this project, so I thought I'd do a little update. Overall, it is working great! The original black PETG print melted on a particularly hot sunny day. I reprinted in white PETG, and it has been going strong through some hot CA, AZ, and Mexican...

Love my KO2s, have 20K on mine, plenty of life left. We frequently do trails and forest roads, did some rough stuff in Death Valley. Amazed at some of the sharp stuff we have hit at speed and survived. Tough tires, and nice on road manners. I’ll get another set when it is time.

Mine is the 27oz. I think the diameter of most of their bottles is the same. My opening is 73.25mm. The right side "bycicle bottle" opening is 76.75mm. A nalgene is quite a bit bigger at 91.5mm, and it wouldn't leave much room for the other features on my inserts. It would have to more like my...

Thanks for the kind words folks. Several people have PM'd me asking whether I'd print and sell one to them. Let me go through some of the considerations, and if people are still interested, I'll consider it. This thing would be expensive I thought about selling this after I printed mine, but I...

Thanks! If anyone would like to print out their own, PM me, and I can share the file with you.

Let me know what you think, or if you have improvement ideas! It has been waaaay too much work for a cupholder, but I'm really pleased with how it worked out. We went for a 3-day camping trip, and there weren't bottles and charging devices sloshing all over the place!

The charging cables wires can be pulled up and plugged into devices that need charging. I'm working on improving how smoothly and easily these pull out, and push back down. Here it is loaded up. Showing off the contour (asymmetrical! Thanks toyota!) which makes it blend into the stock...

I hate the stock cupholder. I'm sure you understand. Maybe the later ones are better. I decided to design and print a modular 3d-printable replacement. I went through many iterations before I had a good fit. The new one completely replaces the stock one with a large bin, which can either be...
