WTB - Clean, solid 01-03 LC Hello, I live in Washington State, but am having little luck finding a 01-03 Land Cruiser that matches my criteria:confused:: • lower miles under $16,000 • higher miles around $12,000 with 90K service and good exhaust manifolds. • clean gray interior...

To all of you #11-#20, and of course those prior, You guys are great! Really. I am really eager to investigate all the leads you've provided. We are so fortunate to have such a dedicated community of cruiserheads, and this forum. It simply amazes me every time I log on and see the...

4xoddic, Thanks for another intriguing idea. I had thought about using an actual stethoscope, but if I can't get my hands on one, maybe I'll try your idea. I could be way off, but I think I have a pretty good idea where it's coming from. The problem is I just don't see how anything else in...

Doug, Thanks for your suggestion. I might just try this. I'll probably pull the liner again on that side to expose the area I have isolated as the source and be real accurate about where I'm shooting. The foam will have the added advantage of getting into areas I just can't see or reach. With...

Thanks for the suggestion. I had to reassemble everything for my commute tomorrow, so I will have to try again at some later date - when the rattle begins to get to me again, I suppose.

I removed the roof rack, and got all the nutserts - so it's not that. I know that two pieces of material i.e. metal, plastic etc. rubbing together can produce a rattle type sound, and this is the the only explanation I have at this point - probably something I won't be able to reproduce or...

No, it's not life or death, and I have searched the site. Just wondering if anyone has solved the mystery of the rattle (clicking) sound above the driver's left ear? I've partially removed the headliner on that side, I've removed the little plastic clip that holds a wire harness, I've secured...

jmvar, After they grind, sand, and clean all the metal to eradicate all rust, they apply a very adhesive metal tape. Probably saves a lot of labor time vs welding, and they must trust it if they can offer the lifetime warranty. If there is some sort of problem, I'll know who to visit. The...

Polak, Thanks for the :flipoff2: and the comment. Good luck with the linex job. BTW, what is the T Y L E R style? Sorry if I missed it. :beer:

AC on continually?!? Man, that is way too hot! Love the teflon idea!:lol: I think the black rectangle looks a little like the rubberized slide-back rag-tops on some of the VW old beetles. Thanks for the welcome. :beer:

azrider, They actually wanted to charge more, but I got a lower quote from another employee on a separate visit (not intentional -really), and they split the difference in the end. I think since there was a fair amount of grinding nut-serts, flattening sheet metal (had to pull one nut-sert...

Fjfar80 & Millatruse - Thanks for the kudos and the welcome - much appreciated. Glad to be aboard. Sid - Thanks for the info. Nice job on on the flare area and rockers. Looks great.

NLXTACY, Thanks. Yeah turned out great. Wish they had put a greater radius on the corners like we discussed, but still looks good. I think matching the width of the sunroof deflector created a clean line. Plus it leaves a nice white line above the windows along the length of the roof when view...

Thanks PScottBx. I appreciate that! :beer:

Hey CID, That looks pretty cool. I like they way they tied the rack mount areas to the outside strips. Nice effect. Did you do the flares too? If so, how do they clean up? I was thinking about doing those and the rocker panels too.
