    Newly installed KO3's - Rebalanced, Still Shaking

    I just went to an America's Tire. They did mark the tire and moved the tire, but I should have gone to a mom/pop shop with a Hunter Machine.

    Newly installed KO3's - Rebalanced, Still Shaking

    My 285-75-17 KO3's needed road balancing too, still aren't perfect but 95% better than a regular balance. Didn't have any issues with 32" and 33" KO2's. Will probably jump to a different brand next time.

    Rear cargo area leak driving me crazy - passenger side corner wet

    I remember someone posting they replaced the lower rubber molding or gasket on the 3rd row side windows and that fixed their water leak issue.

    What wheels/tires are you running on your LX470/100 LC? (Need advice)

    I'm running FN Five Star's (17x8 +30) with BFG KO3 285-75-17's. Pinch weld mod, fender liner mod and bump stop spacer mod. I'm running a 1/2" front AHC lift and 1" rear AHC lift.

    Brake Master ...... Overdue write-up.

    How big are your tires? When I had 32's and 33's I felt like the brakes were fine. When I moved to 34's I felt like the brakes felt weak, like I had to push down a lot more to stop, sometimes making my right leg really tired on long drives. I upgraded to 03+ front calipers (which have ~1.5mm...

    Would diagrams like this be useful? If so, what would you want changed/added?

    An old mud vendor (we won't talk about it here) made a nice one of these for the 80 series. There was suppose to be a 100 series one but from what I know, it never came to be.

    Parts stockpiling

    Off topic, but do oil filters expire? I have a case of 90915-10004 I never used for my prior car.

    Viper ceramic 30% tint source?

    Just had my wife's new car tinted and it made me think of the Viper30 tint on my 100. Anybody know the specs of this tint? I wonder what the solar/IR rejection specs are. Does anyone know how the factory bronze tint looks with a 70/80% tint on it? Thinking of putting 70/80 on all the rear...

    Brake Upgrade

    Just did this 2003+ front caliper brake upgrade to my 2001 LX. Stock brakes felt sufficient with Load D 32's and Load C 33's. When I got Load E 34's they were no longer sufficient (my opinion, not stock weight but not a heavy build) . Night and day difference now with my 34's. I feel like I...

    Custom Diameter Torsion Bars (Sway-A-Way)

    Installed my AHC 27mm bars yesterday. 5 spline offset is the way to go if you have bumpers/winch/belly armor at stock heights and have lots adjustment left for a sensor lift. 1 turn on each side adjusts the pressure .3 MPa. I would guess 3 or 4 offset might work if your not armored up to not...

    Custom Diameter Torsion Bars (Sway-A-Way)

    Life got in the way and getting back to this. Did you install the bars yet? Did you offset 5? Do you have a winch? Trying to gauge your weight compared to mine since I have aluminum bumpers but have a winch and we have similar sliders/roof racks but I don't have a aux gas tank or a 2nd swing...
