If you've got a 100 series and need someplace to mount electronic or other components inside the engine bay, please get in touch with me. I replaced this with a larger one. Just pay shipping and it's yours. See my dual battery post (Slider35 Dual Battery Setup) for details.
Have a 2013 that's new to us. First 200 series that I've owned. Wife's daily driver. Brakes have been soft, spongy, and have had a long pedal throw since first driving it. None of my five previous 100 series trucks have exhibited this. Does not feel right in the 2013.
Is the accumulator pump...
This question is for those of us considering having our rigs painted, wrapped, or monstalined. How much surface area are we talking about?. Anyone ever measure? I searched, but came up empty.
I'll give it a few days. If nobody has posted the details, I'll do the measuring and put it up here.
Knocked out my weekend project a day early. Took some pictures along the way. Time to share.

Any interest? I'll post photos. Lights still work, but I'm thinking of going in another direction. Have had them on my LC for a few years and glass has become clouded. Last night I attempted to bake them to get the glass separated from the housing to clean them - no success and took a half dime...
Made this video today in search of a new noise I'm trying to locate. Figure I'd share the video. It shows the workings of the IFS and steering components rather well.
Looking for some ideas as I am replacing this DVD player which has left a fairly large hole in the headliner. The more creative the better. Only requirement is that I retain lighting of some sort along with the on/off/door functionality.
So, deer season is just over the horizon and it got me thinking about a gift I received last Christmas. This gift is still sitting in my garage, unused, in the same condition I brought it home in. Haven't had it repaired because it would cost $87 to ship it to Austin and we just don't get out...
Timed it just right to capture on video the moment when bearings (or whatever it is) start making noise. Starts sounding bad right at the 35 second mark in this video:
I have never done any work on this part of the LC and am apprehensive about it. Can anyone tell me what I'm looking at parts...
Anyone have 2 of these spares in good shape? Black powder coated preferred, but will consider unfinished ones for the right price. I'm located in Porter area, but would travel for pick up.

I have 4 16" wheels available for the 100 series Land Cruiser or LX470. Came off of 2002 Land Cruiser.
$300 obo for 4 wheels and tires. 2 tires are 275/70/16. 1 tire is 285/75/16.
1 18" wheel available for 100...
It's 19 degrees out. Not at home. Turned key to start 2002 LX and it gave and now won't start and won't get out of aux mode. Any shortcuts to get her started would be helpful. Will search for similar issues soon, but wanted to get this out there in case someone can come to my rescue with a fix...
So my 2002 LX470 didn't come with tow hitch installed and I needed to move my trailer around so I crawled underneath to prepare to install one I had removed from my 2000 LC and look what I find.
I've never seen this before on any of my other rigs and never had an issue with bolting things up...
Auction yard came to pick up my wrecked LX yesterday. Even though this vehicle was in a rollover accident and both sides of frame are bent, it will not be given a salvage title. I guess Allstate made sure to perform their calculations just right and the state of Texas allows them to do that. VIN...
So, for the time being I still have my 2007 LX470. I was in an accident and it appears to be totaled. I won't find out until later this week. I have already been on the lookout for it's replacement.
I've seen a few that could fit the bill, but I'm also considering something other than a LC or...
