I just ordered a new muffler and related bolts/nuts/clamp from partsnext.com. They have been cheaper than anyplace else. This is my third big order from them.

To get the bracket installed, I ended up bending the bottom mounting tab 180 degrees to utilize an existing hole. Before I rotated it, I used a grinder to make the tab thinner so that it would fit inside the radiator support arm. After I got it to fit inside radiator support arm, I realized...

@Roosevelt T I contacted Redarc Australia (not sure why I didn't contact Redarc US) and they said: It seems from this post that it fits the Land Cruiser properly. Just hoping that someone smarter than me has come up with a good way to get it to fit on the LX.

Just wondering if anyone has successfully used the REDARC BCDCMB-008 on an LX470 (for use with a BCDC1225D)? When I line the bracket up, it interferes with the horn and there is not a hole in the radiator support bracket for the bottom support arm.

I am installing a Mishimoto at the moment and I can’t get the passenger side top bracket to line up with the holes on the mishimoto. I put the bolts in the bottom to be sure and take up any slack. It looks like the driver side will line up. Has anyone had this similar problem? At this point I...

Here is a pic of what the rear light looks like:

I am running a total of five - two lights running off one side and three lights on the other side (with the third light run to the rear bumper). I have not modified the factory puddle light wiring and haven't noticed any issues or burning smells with the extra wattage. I am a little surprised...

I haven't found dimmable wide angle LED lights, but I have switched to using a 6 inch 48 w light and have been happy so far. I put two lights on one side (under the driver door and passenger door) and three on the other side (added one under the rear bumper area). I took off my AHC stuff from...

Thank you! I think I read that two of the three bushing are not available from Toyota, so I ordered the whiteline W13210 poly kit.

I have some floatiness when going over some bigger bumps on the freeway. Recently replaced the shocks. Took a video that shows what seems like an awful lot of movement when moving the sides of the tire back and forth. Maybe 1/4 cup of fluid came out of the driver side boot when I pulled it...

@LRscorned looks great!

I have an Element E50 fire extinguisher that had been hanging out in my glove box. To make it more easily accessible, I thought I would try putting it in the door pocket. I didn't want it to be horizontal in the door pocket because other stuff might get on top of it and make it more difficult...

You only need one male connector per side. You could cut off the connector from your old running board and re-use it, or I can send you two male connectors. PM me for details. Thanks!

PMs sent!

The only thing that doesn’t work for me is the parking light locator functionality. I think it is supposed to leave the parking lights on after locking/unlocking so that you can find the truck in the dark (or something like that). I believe that is why they say it isn’t compatible. Not having...
