Thank you for making these @cruiserpatch I've been just suffering for the last couple years, watching the kids swing open the rear doors, wondering when they will just fly right off the hinges. But now, a holiday miracle has come. Ordered my set. It's gonna be a good christmas.
Installed some goodies from Trail Tailor.
After a quick pull from a Taco last week ( blame the heater tee 👎) and having the tow strap fly off that stupid hook up front I went home and ordered the proper tow points. Soft Shackle Tow Points - 60 80 100 Series -...
Guess what I got to install this morning??
Apparently my shop did not replace the second one when I asked (after the first one fell apart a few years ago). I'm an idiot for not double checking. Glad I found one nearby.
PSA: go check your heater tees right now. If you have plastic, order some...
Got my drawer built. Just need to add pull out prep table in the lower space below the drawer. Then cover and secure it.
No Zane setup but pleased with the first go. Got the sliders in straight and pulled off 1/8in clearance. Phew. That was tight.
Thanks for all the ideas. I am a few new projects in the list now.
Couple answers to questions.
1. The key that's missing now was a key without the buttons on it. Not sure if it had a chip / RFID / etc in it or not. It was not a Toyota key, it was some kind of copy. It was what I used as a...
So they pulled the kick panel off and jacked with a few wires under there. Nothing looks cut, but now my heated seat seems to be stuck on. That's fun given that summer is practically here in Tucson.
Any ideas how / where that heated seat wiring is?
I am going to look into a kill switch or...
Found it! What!
Just drove it back home. It was 3 miles away behind an abandoned house. Police found it after a neighbor called it in.
Stole a few things out of the back and the front of my stereo. Dummies. Probably only lost $500 of stuff and two weird Monday morning hours of my life...
Just in the remote case anybody sees a posting or happens to be near Tucson driving around and see my cruiser. It was just stolen from my driveway an hour ago. Chased it down the street bare foot in my pjs. Not sure what I was gonna do.
Anyway. Here is a pic.
If anyone has a 100 they are...
Looking for a set of 3rd row seats to fit my 2000 100series.
Interior is Tan Leather.
Third kid is coming any day now. Need space to fit another car seat (which will force me to get a roof rack next. Bonus!)
I'm in Tucson, AZ. Willing to drive a little to pick up or possibly arrange...
@Placemotorsports
Ooh. Thanks. I've been thinking about painting the bumpers until I get around to replacing them. This is really helpful to visualize. I have been going back and forth between white and black. Yours looks great.
In the last few months:
Replaced the starter. That was fun.
Plati-dipped stuff
- Emblems for practice
- Grill for more practice
- Wheels, no longer practice. Came out great.
- Side trim. I'm addicted.
Tint on windows. It's hot in AZ. Helps a ton. Don't know why I waited so long.
Running...
Thanks to everyone's tips. Completed my starter swap today in 6hrson lysine breakfast and lunch, with a couple little helpers nabbing tools from the bench. Lots of tips in here were helpful.
1. Lifting the hood higher = awesome.
2. Boards across the engine bay to sit on / lean on / lay on =...
