I just spent the last two days rust proofing my wheel wells and working on a couple problem areas I found.
First set of pics is the notorious rear quarter panel rust spot, I wire brushed off as much as I could and then gave it a coat of Rustolium followed by a coat of Cosmoline RP-342...
My most important video to date.
A full run down of how I have loaded my Land Cruiser for my upcoming Grand Americana Tour; a 22,000 mile road trip across the United States.
I will likely be following this trip with a drive through Mexico, Central and South America all the way down to the...
For the last year I have looked high and low for good window shades for all 5 rear windows.
I made my own (they sucked), I looked everywhere and could not find a set that fit my needs.
Finally I came across these on E-bay, they took 2 months to get here from China but they are perfect.
They...
Ok, so I guess I am at a loss.
I am trying to come up with a way to route the cable for my Starlink from the roof of my 2006LC to the rear of the cabin.
Originally I was just going to run it through the rear window as pictured below but when it rained water ran down the cable and leaked into...
Made expendable when I installed a front bumper.
I put them on 6-8 months ago, but never got stuck so they are practically unused. Includes pictured hardware.

I replaced mine with a high output model and this is the one that came out. 130A, it was in perfect working condition when I removed it.

Shop told me today my clunk was because I needed a new transfer case chain.
I have read through these forums exhaustively looking at the various fixes for the clunk and have never seen anything about a chain. I'm pretty sure he doesn;t know what he's talking about.
Am I correct that there is...
I would like to share my experience with Toyota at Overland Expo East and I think most of you will appreciate it.
I volunteered to work a tent (Geyser, look it up) at OEX East to get a free ticket in, but still had a lot of free time to enjoy myself. So Saturday I was driving around charging...
So I'm taking out my front seats tomorrow to put down some kilmat and I'm wondering if there's anything I can remove permanently while I have the seats out. I generally do this with any work that I do just to save on weight because I'm pushing my MGW.
I know there's a DVD player under the...
Hey all, I am probably about to display some ignorance, I have read every thread in here that mentioned "alternator," "big 3," or "battery cables" and I still have some questions.
So I understand the big three are:
1. pos Battery to alternator
2. neg engine block to chassis
3. neg Battery to...
I have destroyed the two rear scuff plates on my 2006 LC, the clips and the part the clips connect to on the bottom of the scuff plates won't stand up to my constantly standing on them to access my cargo boxes etc.
Are there any after market scuff plates like these for a 100? Also these look...
So this weekend I spent about 20 hours installing a dual battery, rear cargo space power, and a fridge/freezer in the 100 series.
Here is a video I made of my efforts if anyone is interested for their future projects. Also any sharpshooting is welcome as I am relatively new to this. Either for...
So here is where I am. I bought a Slee 2nd battery tray mod kit for my 2006 100 series. Paid $200 for it and also shelled out another $1500 for Redarc equipment, 2 Odyssey batteries, cable etc.
I did not know, nor was there any way I could have known, because it doesn't mention it anywhere on...
Thank you very much in advance, I spend half my time these days on YouTube and Ih8mud.
So i am trying to figure out exactly how I want to do my power. I have a lot of international travel and outdoors experience, just not with a vehicle. I am retiring from the Army in 1 year and putting...
