    Alignment specs after lift

    So, I had my 1.75” front/1.5” lift rear installed. Since, I’ve had two different Toyota dealers complete alignments and today the alignment sheet given to me still doesn’t seem good regarding caster. Should I get another one somewhere else? I’m limited locally with shops that have any idea...

    275/65/18 BFG’s installed-fits in spare location too

    My 1.75” lift goes on next week, but I went ahead and installed the KO2’s today and I’m happy to report no rubbing in stock form and the spare fits as well (I chose 255/70/18 for the spare so it’s the same diameter but a little skinnier to tuck in the spare location-worked perfectly)...

    UCA's needed for 1.75" lift? If so, JBA?

    Hey all, newbie here with a small 1.75" front and 1.5" rear lift on the way. It's my daily so down the road when that changes, so will the build. Until then, will my factory UCA's work with that amount of lift? Or, should I purchase UCAs just in case or to ensure proper caster? I don't want...

    Thoughts on undercarriage?

    2014 with only 18k miles, NY 1 owner. Doesn't appear the previous owner did any preventative undercarriage treatment. I am a southern guy and not a rust expert. Thoughts? Video from dealership

    Any reason to avoid '16+ for build?

    Hi all. I have been MIA for a while, but am looking to purchase either a '13-'15 or 2016+ to start a build. I am not that familiar with the 2016+ models, but I skimmed through some threads that talked about some tranny issues with the '16+ update and am a little hesitant to purchase a newer...

    Are 200 seats leather or synthetic (vinyl)?

    Just curious as I have searched everywhere (even in my owners manual) and it states how to care for leather and synthetic leather in the cruiser, but doesn't state specifically where. Therefore, are the seats in the cruiser leather or synthetic leather? I have an '11, and am not sure what...

    Xuji steering wheel cover install/pics

    So, first a shout out to John @lcgeek for posting the original pic of this mod which gave me the inspiration to pull the trigger. I have never been a fan of wood steering wheels, much less ones that have scratches from rings that constantly stare at you when driving :) My '11 LC was owned by...

    How to update '11 Navigation?

    Yes, I have searched but came up empty. Maybe if I dig into my owners manual I could find the answer. But, I figured I would ask here as maybe there are additional details to note. So, is there a disc like my 100 series, or do you somehow download an update for my '11 LC? Thanks for any help :)

    Changed serpentine belt and still slight squeal after cold start???

    So, last week I heard a slight squeal during cold starts. The squeal is intermittent and very faint. It seems as if something kicks on causing it to start the slight squeal, and then stops whenever "it" kicks off. It is completely eliminated after warm up. I replaced the belt with a new OEM...

It's a cool video that really makes me feel like we own a piece of iconic history...corny I know, but watch the video and hopefully you will have the same reaction I did of "Oh...

    biggest tire on 20" TRD wheel (200 series)?

    Hello all. Does anyone know if a 305/55/20 tire will fit on a non-lifted 200 with 20" TRD wheels? If not, will a 295/55/20 (32.8") be a better option? 295/55 is 32.78" tall and 11.61" wide, 305/55 is 33.21" and 12.01" wide. I believe the offset is 60mm. Will I have to add UCA's or coilovers...
