Keep in mind I have 863 springs (OME heavy) in the rear of my cruiser and no AHC. T-bars are turned up as much as I thought appropriate. Gebo, don't forget to get the front end aligned after making any supension adjustments.

$21,500 for all 3. Before I list them individually, I'll offer them as a package that also includes a brand new OEM radiator and shroud (never installed) from the dealer as well as the thermostat, gaskets, etc. 2002 LC Champagne with tan. My...

So if it is weeping water then it corroded thru and a plug threaded in would solve ?

****ing love the Canyero sticker...... Now I'll be singing all day,,,, yeeehaaaaaa Canyenaroooooooooohhhhohhhh

I also finally finished stripping the entire interior, including all the headliner and grab handles and overhead console stuff. Getting everything prepped for when the PDR guy comes and I start refreshing all the interior trim pieces.

Today I replaced my AHC accumulator globes and flushed the system with fresh fluid. Really happy with the ride quality but haven’t got techstream so don’t know the levels. Thats next on my list. Mind you, this was after I had the Major...

We bought our 100 in 2004 (while the 100 was still in production, lol). It has served as my wife's daily and ferried our 3 year old (now 23!) and his mom and dad to mid atlantic beaches, mountains, vacations/road trips, travel soccer, virginia...

My $0.02...I bought my 05' LX back in December not knowing anything about this platform...fast forward to now and I enjoy driving it EVERY time I jump in it. I have 5 kids ranging from 7 y/o to 16 y/o and all 7 of us fit comfortably in there...

No opinion from me without seeing underneath the vehicle along with the stuff that actually matters. No details on the lift? You're in NJ? If you have $27K to spend you have a lot of options......Start looking for rigs in Nevada and other...

Removed the rust and detritus from the underside of the front fenders and applied POR15.

It's so awesome to see your rig running again! Congrats on all that hard work!

I have no idea what's going on there, but I dig it. I'm not sure it makes any sense, but I like it. My quick Youtube sleuthing says this is the build https://www.youtube.com/@itsDeza

After 2 years of searching, I finally have a set of 30% viper ceramic up front to match my bronze privacy glass! The tinter installing them denied they would match, then after all said and done he was shocked how good it turned out. Now I can...

We’d get along. Awhile back when I had my vinyl plotter running, I made a bunch of tiny dicks out of black vinyl. I stick them on people’s back up cameras and it makes the perfect fuzzy dick silhouette on the screen. Hilarity ensues.

Not related to the 40.... Chris needed something to haul fuel on the flatbed of the Hilux. May I present, The Dixin Fuel Caddy. Moral of the story, don't give me the opportunity to be a dick.

Hi guys, just wanted to hop on here as we've seen lots of comments about the retirement to this day. Todd is still looking to retire but we're still in business as usual! Although he's ready to relax, we will continue manufacturing all parts for...

Not a lot to report this weekend. The head was dropped off at Yota1 in Riverbank for a once over. Then I got to cleaning some stuff in my high tech parts soaker. And then I finished removing the rivets from my replacement front crossmember.

@sterling Thanks! I have been working through the rust a little bit at a time. As Neil Young said, "rust never sleeps", but me, I have to get some shuteye. 😴

Did you determine relay fuse bad? You've not stated year or model. Have you checked for any DTC (code) in tech stream. Was the fuel pump you installed OEM, Denso or aftermarket. Is immobilizer light going off when key insert into IG SW. Have you...

Last Land cruiser I had was about 15 years ago. It was an 88 FJ62. It had about 280 thousand miles on it, a blown head gasket, and it was mostly rusted away. but this (last) week I bought another one. 1999 LX470. 160 thousand miles on it, bought...

Tailgate and liftgate for the W.

All finished and initial torque settings done. Will check after a few weeks. Greased up and double checked everything. All in all, good experience but those pins…they are Satan’s spawn. Never want to do that again. Right now, 3” raise and...

Excellent work on the 40 and the story is great. Rust is the first thing I did on mine, if nothing else applying some rust converter. Helped me sleep better.

@BrownWolf I had a brand new Miller Thunderbolt welder I bought 35+ years ago…never really used it because it wasn’t that easy as a good welder can make it look!.. about 10 years ago (still not doing any welding) I built my first smoker from a...

I’m going with Julie’s but only because I was able to get ahead of the line because someone I know wrecked his cruiser before she made it for him so know I’m getting it. However if you get put on the waiting list it’s going to be a really long...
