    These are from 2015, when bought new by me (paid $400+), for ARB Deluxe bar on the 100-series. The fog lights work fine, with the yellow color being a film I added (can be easily removed). There are NO connectors on the fog light cables, and there are NO turn signals. I do have the brackets...

    Techstream resulted in VSC TRAC, VSC OFF, and blinking VGRS

    UPDATE: Issue was completely resolved by using a miniVCI cable with firmware version 2.0.4. It appears that my '06 LX was not compatible with the miniVCI cable that others had successfully used. So lesson to be learned pay attention to the cable firmware as it can be the difference between...

    Heavy Duty AHC Rebuild

    I’m of the seeming minority that really likes the AHC. My 2006 LX has been working well for me so far, but I’m starting to look at options to update the suspension. I’d love to keep the full AHC functionality, but wonder if there are changes that one should make to account for all the extra...

    2016 LC Off-road Article + Video

    Not sure if posted here already (didn't see it on quick look), but thought the below was a pretty neat article on someone who is not very experienced with off-roading taking a 2016 land cruiser off road. (I got the feeling that the driver didn't really know/understand how to fully operate the...

    I've now tried to remove the drop-pin on my Slee rear bumper for cleaning a couple of times over the years... each time I try and then stop because I can't unscrew the nut at the top of the pin. Any advice on how to go about this? As you can see, the nut is starting to deform from the force...

    Changing flush mount led fog light angle.

    I just installed a set of labrak replacement fog light shrouds and lights for my arb bumper. It's a very high quality setup and I really like it. The one thing I did notice is that he fog lights, which have a flood pattern, point relatively straight forward. So much so that they can blind...

    What would it take - 4x rotopax swing-out for slee rear bumper?

    I saw this on Expedition portal, and thought it was a great idea. While this is for a G-wagon, I don't see why this couldn't be a nice solution for Hundies too... I've seen the 2x rotopax carriers before, but not something that could carry 4 as here. I figured that without the ladder on a slee...

    Water inside right rear turn signal?

    We had some big downpours the other day, and today I noticed some water inside the passenger side turn signal -- the part that is attached to the tailgate. Any ideas on where it came, and how to address? This is the 1st time I've noticed anything of the sort. It's an '06 LX. :bang:

    Are front and rear sway bar rubber bushing interchangeable?

    I have an extra set of rubber/poly (not sure which) bushings that came with my extended rear sway bar mounts. At the time I didn't realize that the extended sway bar mounts would come with the bushings so I ordered a full OEM set, which I ended up using, so I never used these. I was...

    Adding courtesy lights to sliders

    One of the things I always missed when I swapped out the Lexus running boards for Slee sliders was the cool courtesy lights that came out automatically when you unlocked the doors. These were actually quite practical when approaching the car in darkness (e.g., my parents unlit driveway.) So...

    Slee Rear Bumper locking-pin remote release

    Has anyone here fabricated a remote release for the locking pin that sits next to the pivot points on the Slee rear bumper tire carrier and/or ladder (it locks each in closed and open position to prevent accidental opening/closing.) While I only have the tire carrier on mine, in practice I've...

    Another DIY Drawer Thread - One Side only

    I've been inspired by all the drawer talk on the site here, and have started a build one of my own as well (build pictures to follow.) I'm going to build one side only (with option for adding another later if needed), because I make frequent use of one of the 3rd row seats. Mounting will be...

    Fuel smell after hard acceleration

    I've been having a blissfully uneventful (read reliable) life with me cruiser lately. However, this evening I experienced an unusual fuel smell in the cabin (1st time ever), and wanted to see if you guys had any advice (I've done the searches and have seen a bunch of stuff around vapors and...

    Alternator and Battery troubleshooting help

    Yesterday my car turned on the red idiot light in the shape of a battery. I could see in the battery charge gauge on the dashboard that the battery voltage level was lower than usual--I was able to drive it home, and I've had the battery hooked up to a battery tender ever since. My current...
