Hello MO fellow cruiser heads,
Anyone with decent mechanical knowledge in Springfield willing to do a basic pre purchase inspection for me? I would normally do the fly out/drive back routine, but with the current state of affairs, it's not viable with my work. So I'll likely be shipping this...
Anyone ever done this? I just finished the break in procedure on my 4.88s. Im used to pulling jeep covers to do the drain at which time you can get a good idea on the pattern/break in. Since our 3rds are so time consuming to remove, Im obviously not going to do that. Has anyone used an...
Hey all!
We're gearing up to head to the sand dunes this weekend. Initial plan was to find some primitive camping nearby, but I now learned you can primitive camp at designated spots on the pass.
For those of you that have done it, think a triple locked 100 with a small camper trailer can...
Hey mud!
I figured this could be an interesting discussion. I recently picked up arb lockers during the memorial day 10% sales. I originally really wanted the harrops, but when it came down to it, I couldn't justify $2700 over $1800 for the Arbs.
Naturally, with locker installs in my near...
Hey everyone!
Some of you may or may not have seen my teasers about a new product for the 100 series platform. I'm really excited about this and wanted to debut it before heading to Hundreds in the Hills as I plan to give away two beta kits. This has been an over 6 month endeavor to get to...
Hey all! I'm a local to the 100 series forum but venture here hoping to find some info from anyone more familiar with the 3rd gen 4runner platform.
So my friend had a major incident with her 98 sr5 v6 5speed 4wd rear locker truck. I believe her double cardan broke while she was on the...
Posting here instead of the LA region forum because I want someone really familiar with the 100 series.
Truck is located in Van Nuys. I'm offering $50 to whoever can look at it the quickest. I can PM details of where it specifically is. I'd like someone who knows how to do the AHC graduation...
Hey all!
I'm in need of a local 1998-2002 100 series with nav to prototype a media mount on. I have one built for the 2003-2007, but need to see if its the same or different for the earlier years.
I'd ideally like to do this this weekend. In exchange for letting me use your truck, I'll give...
2006 lx470
Coming home from camping I filled the tank on the way back. I've been noticing a lot of fuel vapors and smell Everytime I stop coming from around the filler
About 100 miles after filling up, I stopped in a parking lot and shut it off for 10 min. Went back outside and the truck turns...
I find myself in a bit of a pickle and am looking for advice. I know these topics have been beat to death, but I cant seem to figure out what I'm looking for.
My '06 with 138k miles needs new brakes as the pads have worn pretty thin. It also needs new lower ball joint dust boots (ball joints...
Hey all.
We recently got the 6xL dual zone dometic fridge/freezer off of Amazon. I ran 8gauge to the back fuse panel then about 5' of 14 gauge to the fridge. I believe it's getting enough amps.
I ran it all day the other day (empty) while at work and had it set to 9 degrees. When I came out...
Hoping to get an answer from a mod.
Do I need to do anything to be able to sell my small creations through mud? Aka things I build for cruisers.
Thanks!
Before they go into the trash, I have the front and rear factory bumpers off of my white '06 LX470. They're in pretty good condition, but the rear has some rash. I also have the steps.
Hey all!
I need a 4-1/2" hole saw for one cut into my fender for my new dorkel. Anyone have one I can borrow? I really hate the idea of spending $40 just for one cut, especially if someone already has one.
Dorkel picture for reference:
Hey all,
I'm expecting a bumper/swingout in the coming month and need to find a quality powder coater here in town. Anyone have any positive or negative experiences? Right now, it looks like Absolute powder coating or ABQ Manufacturing might be the best options (based on google reviews).
So I always said I wouldn't remove the rear whale spoiler unless it got in the way. Now it seems I might be able to position my RTT a little further back and get better rear lighting from my rack without the spoiler.
I just pulled it off to see how it looks. It looks naked!

Hey all. I need some wiring assistance. I'm currently installing 6 lights on my roof. I have 2 switches and 2 relays.
What I want to happen is this, one switch lights up all 6 lights. The second switch only lights up 2 out of the 6 lights. Is such a thing possible. Every configuration I try has...
Hey everyone. I've tried searching with no real definitive answer.
How is everyone running wires through their firewall for lights, accessories, etc. I anticipate having to run at least 10, 16gauge wires through my wall for roof lights and a switch panel I'm making.
Do you guys holesaw the...
