    Everything I do is budget... See my poorly written and poorly photographed blog for ideas...

    2018 GX460 Luxury Level Kit Installation

    If you want front spacers I think I still have a set. Add a few washers on the rear bag sensors and it'll raise them. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/socal-front-leveling-lift-1-5-gx460-4runner-fj.1276303/#post-15041249

    Not cooling my seat enough (re: seat cooling)

    Have you used much carbon fiber impregnated nylon? I've got mostly PLA and ABS at work and we do have a CF nylon I want to try. I've not tested PLA but I wonder if summer 115 temps in a closed car would be enough to wilt/bend. I used a heat gun briefly on a thick item of PLA and was shocked how...

    460-Add Crawl Control (CC) and Multi Terrain Select (MTS) to 2010-2019 models/all trims

    I may try it as well. Haven't bothered yet. I can get a few double Toyota switches and use the areas on the left of the steering wheel.

    460-Add Crawl Control (CC) and Multi Terrain Select (MTS) to 2010-2019 models/all trims

    Came across this video. Looks like another easy way to add crawl control.

    Lexus GX460

    just meant that I'd have changed the filter and another 6 qt of new fluid so it'd be as fresh as I can get it. I plan on keeping it as long as possible. I've only done the drain and fills and always felt like I should do the whole filter change.

    Lexus GX460

    With all this info, I'm dragging this back to life because I've got 190k and about 5 fluid drain-fills at 180k, so fairly fresh fluid now (no history of previous fluid maint). No problems yet. But I have the filter, pan gasket, and fluid to do a final filter and fluid change. After reading these...

    Front shock install, now Center Diff lock flashing, AFS not working, abs and traction control lights

    From the previous post: "Closing the loop to help anyone in the future. Found the break in the ans sensor wire, soldered it back together, heat shrink. May buy a replacement. All lights gone. Everything working fine. That answers the question: abs is part of a module that controls many other...

    Keeping Remote Start On When Touching or Unlocking the Vehicle

    Saying "OPEN" when you do that also helps project the signal further, ha. I suppose its to keep people from jumping in the running car and driving off?

    Adding rock lights to the rock sliders using the leftover wire connectors

    I didn't get around to that switch after wiring them in but I do have stock lights on my rock sliders. A future project perhaps

    4 banger LC, thoughts?

    Gearing is what matters.Can it use the tq and hp? Probably good to go. The thing I immediately thought of was trail fix ability in remote locations. There is something pure about air/spark/fuel. This thing will either go perfectly...or not go at all. I guess the GX is close to that, but the...
