    1998 JDM Land Cruiser Build

    Happy with the ride, I have maybe 100 lbs of stuff in the back of the truck normally, but it doesn’t sag too much if I put my dirt bike on the trailer hitch carrier. It rides much better than the OME and toytec lifts I had in old 4Runners. I think they’re good springs for a daily driver, just a...

    1998 JDM Land Cruiser Build

    I haven't seen too much on the EGR delete for 2UZs when I searched for it a while back, only the 1UZ. What have you found?

    1998 JDM Land Cruiser Build

    Do you have a Cygnus? I can tell you have a different trim level with the side mirror indicators. If you ever want to wrench on your truck, let me know, I'm in Monument. I have all the tools for the time belt job. Check out my key write-up if you need additional keys or just want some decent...

    Dash Covering

    On my 98 I used a two part epoxy for plastic, it’s been holding well for the last few months. I put some wood blocks and wedged it under the windshield for the seam near the windshield.

    Cabin air filter size for JDM LC100 VX?

    I had the same problem, I trimmed the filters to fit (depth-wise) and two fit on top of each other like they’re supposed to. I think you still get most of the benefit, I’m sure some air goes around the edge.

    Replacement keys for JDM 100 series

    I was able to swap a North American door control module in so I don't have to use the Japanese key. Here is the write up: US Model Door Module for JDM

    I like this one from Amazon. Not the cheapest but the quality is good for the money: JRready ST5234 Pin Extractor Tool Set

    Murica-izing my JDM Land Cruiser - Wireless Door Control Module Replacement

    I hope those of you with JDM trucks are able to find some value in this. I don't have an immobilizer on my truck, if you do you may want to make sure the new key registers on the ECU before you buy a door module and start taking things apart.

    Murica-izing my JDM Land Cruiser - Wireless Door Control Module Replacement

    You'll need to swap the brackets on the modules, take off the cover and it's one screw.

    Murica-izing my JDM Land Cruiser - Wireless Door Control Module Replacement

    One of the pins that was missing was the ground switch that blinks the tail lights. I went digging in the wiring manual and sure enough, plug "IU4" was in the same place but on the opposite side in my truck. I put a tap on the wire and now my tail lights blink when I lock and unlock! Added...

    Murica-izing my JDM Land Cruiser - Wireless Door Control Module Replacement

    There are few gripes I have with the JDM Land Cruiser key remote: 1) Only has one button that locks and unlocks 2) Range is terrible, you have to be very close to the front door 3) North American key remotes are not compatible with the JDM module (89741-60050) and the JDM key (89785-50070 ?) is...

    1998 JDM Land Cruiser Build

    I did some clean-up of the power cables connected to the battery recently. I made a little tray out of aluminum and mounted a fuse block. The 8 gauge wires were probably overkill. Currently my Diode Dynamics light cubes and another fuse block in the cabin are connected. I got the "Recoil BTO...

    Nav Delete Help

    The nav delete isn't "hard", it's just time consuming and you need to allot a day or so to get it done. Its so nice not to have to deal with the antiquated display. If you have a 2006 I know it's a bit more involved than on the earlier years. On a 98 I labeled all the wires before disconnecting...
