    Transmission Service

    Thanks everyone. I did see that video but for some reason thought that was the 6 speed. I see now it talks about the 8 speed. I’ll go with the drain and refill x multiple cycles this first go around.

    Transmission Service

    I had planned to service the transmission at 60k miles but now am at 87k so I’m “overdue” although I don’t tow with the vehicle. In any case I was thinking of dropping the pan and replacing the filter. Is that advisable or should I just do the drain and refill cycle? If the latter, just one...

    Snow in Santa Barbara

    By noon on Saturday, 154 was bumper to bumper from State Street heading up. I was very glad I went early, around 7am.

    Snow in Santa Barbara

    That is behind Romero Saddle on East Camino Cielo. A friend actually took that picture. That type of signage is common across the access roads in the backcountry network.

    Snow in Santa Barbara

    Over the past few days we’ve had a very unique pattern of weather resulting in more snow than I’ve ever seen in the mountains of Santa Barbara County. I work with the USFS through a non profit and frequently survey roads, clear boulders, and maintain miles of backcountry trail to preserve access...

    Moab + Stock LC200

    Doesn’t look like the timing is right for me to join that jamboree but that does look fun. Anyone ever done the full White Rim Trail loop?

    Moab + Stock LC200

    Planning to take the kids and family over Spring Break. First time. 2018 rig with a set of Slee Skids and 34” tires. I’d say my off-road skills are intermediate or better. Looking for something that is hard enough that I’m not going to see tourists in rental car chargers, but not looking for...

    Finally Got on the trail

    Finally got some dirt on the tires and after 20 years with 4Runners I have to say I am so impressed with the LC. Enjoy a few pics!

    Transmission

    Not placing blame but just sharing my opinion. No fluids are lifetime and these are the lifeblood of your drivetrain. I chance diffs/transfer case every 15k, engine oil every 5k, PS and Trans every 30k. People say I’m wasting my money but I wonder if this was a contributing factor. Would be...

    QQ about wheels

    Do you still live in Montecito? I’m in Goleta. Sorry to hear you got wiped out in the mudflows. Yeah my issue is the tires that came on these are street tires. Oh well

    QQ about wheels

    I have a perfect set of stock wheels off my 2018. I offered them on the forums and on Craigslist and not one bite. Do people really hate these wheels that much? I may just give them away to get them out of my way.

    Ape Runner Build Thread 🦍

    Picked up a Frontrunner slimline II 1/2 rack. Perfect size for my uses. I knew about the company but didn’t realize their US HQ was only about an hour away from home. Picked it up in person and got to check out their other gear. Great guys and great products. Added a couple lights, some brackets...

    Fml - Dropped roof rack nuts - help

    Took about 30 minutes each to get the front (easier) and rear (requires luck)

    No it actually wasn’t too bad!

    Fml - Dropped roof rack nuts - help

    I was able to fish out the pieces and get the job done! Wasn’t too much of a pain but I felt like a dummy nonetheless. 😂

    Thanks all! Lesson learned and wished I had remembered. One of the front corners and one of the rears.
