The Ad links are down. Is the LC still available? I am potentially interested

I have not read the full thread, but I got the full tuff dog kit from Trail Tailor back in 2016, I think, and I remain very very happy with it. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/anyone-not-happy-with-tough-dog-or-iron-man-lift.1071597/post-11783853

Multipart answer. 1. Yes it is probably possible. I have actually done this before on an older 1990's Toyota sedan where the inner CV axle was permanently stuck in the transmission... It should probably also be possible on a LandCruiser. 2. OH MY GOD! Don't ever try to do this!!! You will...

This means your boots are cracked or your clamps are too loose, and it's time to more closely I spent them Sometimes you can tighten or replace the clamps. Most of the time you'll need to replace the boots, which is 100% doable, but a bit messy and expensive.

I went shopping for some solar LED sting lights. I think I got them on evilBay for about $15. Their battery lasts about 8-10 hours, and self-charge during the day. I had a hard time finding some with a 'warm' color. =)

My OEM CV axles have a tiny bit of "in and out" free play, and no radial free play.

Rebuilding the front CV axles. Again. I'm at 265,538 miles. I finished the passenger side yesterday, and will be doing the driver's today. Sharing this for my own records, as well as to clarify a few details I have to look up each time I do this job -- there are parts specific to the inner and...

I pulled the trigger and am installing (retrofitting) Morimoto D2s 5.0 projectors in my DEPOs in my 1999 LC. My DEPOs are these plastic-lensed ones with side-by-side high/low beams, not the stacked-beam, glass-lensed ones. There's a question at bottom of post about replacement lenses. After...

Yes. That is correct! LOL I feel my previous 8 mpg was reflective of a trend of progressively declining fuel economy, and it triggered me to become particularly concerned that there may be something wrong, or even worse: this truck may not be capable of better MPGs when kitted in its current...

Yes -- here you go! https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/anyone-ever-installed-bigger-injectors.1065591/page-10#post-12857680

4.28.2018 248,647 miles $98 ARB-Clone Snorkel install. It turned out great. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/98-arb-clone-snorkel-install-it-turned-out-great.1048315/

The other day (Jan 13, 20020 @265,100 miles) I installed a set of professionally rebuilt Denso 23250-20030 12-hole injectors, replacing the 265,000 mile stock injectors in my '99 LC. It was an easy 1.5 hr "plug and play" job. I bought them for $150 shipped from a reputable injector shop. Price...

I decided to start a thread sharing details of things I like to do to my LandCruiser. Some of this is because I do neat things that others might like to see or read about. Some of this is because I like to look back and see the stuff myself. Some of it is because someday I may sell it, and...

I know this is an OLD question, but I have also wondered this in the past! Here's the answer for posterity: Smaller tube (90999-94241) for inner CV, larger tube (90999-94242) for outer CV.
