Actually stole some time this past week to work on the 200. I added a power panel to the backside of the ARB drawer, and a charge controller for a foldable solar panel.

Two things I have been meaning to add to this truck; some power in the back and the ability to keep a fridge & battery happy. 14.3 in the driveway, can't beat that!

Attempting to harvest more travel in the AHC suspension.

The shafts on those AHC shocks are nuts.

Aren't they? I compressed one and out comes a crap ton of fluid. Probably could make for a good water cannon. After this project is done, I'll see about cutting one apart.

Why not? There is a thread in all of the other sections. Post pics if you got them.

Me? I put in weathertechs this week, gave it a good wash and detail, and I bought some Novus plastic polish that I am going to use to clean up the PO's scratches all over the wood grain--center console, shifter, steering wheel, etc.
Installed new TRD shifter on my 2015 LC. Found brand new at swapmeet for 80 bucks, jumped on it hoping it would work…. Oh it works!

Installed a Desert Does It front seat molle panel in order to mount the heater.

I scraped the ‘brand spanking new’ off this weekend. Went up a very narrow forest service road and hit the same rock coming down as going up, I tagged both rear wheels. Also experienced a strange spring ‘boing’ noise that I felt in the drivers side floor board… not sure what that was. Road ended up being completely blocked by the top of a giant oak so I had to turn around. If you plan on hiking Rabun Bald, FS 413 is blocked lol.

Xpel PPF is very impressive, it had no Issues with the rhododendron I went through.

Is this supplied with longer bolts of the equivalent grade? How is thread engagement?

It comes with longer bolts. "Includes longer factory grade (Class 10.9) and SS Button Head hardware"

 
I grabbed 2 of those panels and discovered both my wife and I are too short to use them. Seem like a killer product and good option for the heater.

Yea I run one of their panels in my RAM 3500 for the same purpose and my wife can't move the seat far enough forward in that vehicle for the same reason. We lucked out in the Cruiser and it just barely clears her seat position.

Yes, good stuff. Plenty of length to match the factory engagement.
