I'm not interested in the LC250 but the GX550 Overtrail+ looks interesting to me. Not replacing my 100, but I may pick up a GX550 in its 3rd year after they fix any issues. The wheelbase being the same as my 100 and the exterior dimensions being very close to my 100 make it very appealing. I...

Typically, automated liftgates have a way to set the height so maybe someone set it lower than max. I'm also 5'10" and hope that is the case. Ducking every time would get old really fast.

The GX550 is being built in the same Japan plant as the LC300, so I expect top notch quality. My 06 LX470 is running strong, so not in any hurry to get a new SUV, but I'll probably get a GX550 (or LC Prado version) in a few years as it hits most of the right points for me. I only wish it had a...

Mods typically don't add value and can reduce value depending on the buyer. If you were buying a 100, would you prefer an untouched OEM one or one that was modified and you don't know how it was done? I'm not saying you didn't do a good job putting on your mods, but from the perspective of a...

Swapped out my Yakima Fat Cat 6 ski rack to a new Kuat Grip 6 ski rack. Plan is to move the Yakima to my daughter's Crosstrek. Bought the T-Slot mount kit for it, but basically only using the smaller spacers that came with the kit since the slots it's designed for is bigger than the slots in...

I installed the Teyes (there's a separate thread on this in this forum) which leaves the volume knob which works with the unit. There's pros/cons with that unit you can read in the other thread, but you'll retain the volume knob.

@BenCC any update for LX?

Recently found out about this product: Land Cruiser 100 / LX470 Front Winch Mount - Big Slack Off-Road - https://bigslackoffroad.com/product/land-cruiser-100-front-winch-mount/. The price is really good and seems to be bolt on. Also says it supports up to 12k lb winch pulling a 100 series...

Just so folks reading this thread don't get the wrong information. Although Asfir skids are aluminum, their hidden winch is in steel. Says it right on their product page.

ASFIR 4X4 | Off-Road Protection & Armor - https://www.asfir.com/ has bolt on winch mounts for the OEM bumper

+1 for WKOR, I got the full length cover. Looks great and functions great.

Don't anyone tell him about the people installing the "Tesla screen" in their hundys...

Installed the Lutz speedometer calibrator today. Super easy to install and happy I didn't have to remove my skid plates to install it. Tested against GPS at different speeds and my speedometer was behind GPS by 5% due to my larger tires, so pressed the button 10x and zip tied it to a nearby...

Does this work on a 06 LX470? The product page specifically mentions 06-07 LC

I had the same problem with my install initially. The canbus adapter absolutely does not send a reverse signal which is also what I originally thought. You need to tap into the reverse lights where your camera is (not the OEM camera which is the wrong voltage) and use that as the signal. The...
