(Finished product) BTW I know about the DONGAR brand and others but thought I show you guys a fun and low cost alternative. What you’ll need: 12V to 5V DC-DC buck converter Staple gun steel staples (hammered flat) Soldering iron, solder, and flux Heat shrink tubing Location of installation...

I guess I havn’t learned my lesson after the drawer system because now Im thinking I’ll build my own tilting fridge slide. Planning on making a DFG style tilting slide because it looks like an easy approach. Just aluminum angle cut nicely and pop riveted together. Ive got a nice sliding miter...

I'm looking for people that have created a DIY solution for under body fuel storage in a (24v diesel) 75 series troopy. Mine doesn't have the factory aux tank and I'm not financially able to spring for a Long Range Ameria solution. I was thinking of mounting a "flat" shaped tank in place of or...

Is this a dumb idea? (possibly illegal I guess)

I removed my 3rd row seats and put them in storage, figured I have 5+ years before our oldest nugget is large enough to sit back there without a car seat, and gives our Great Dane some extra room back there without them. I was also pretty surprised at the lack of storage space in the rear of...

I recently ordered a Harrop supercharger for my 21 LC. It's currently crated up and sitting in my dining room as I can't seem to find a local shop willing or able to install. I am therefore considering doing it myself. I'm pretty mechanical, but not a mechanic. Has anyone out there undertaken...

Soooo…I’m wondering if anyone’s tried taking a Smittybuilt M1 rear bumper for a FJ Cruiser and DIY make it work to a Second Gen Sequoia…. I swear I’m not smoking crack… 🤣

Hello, I'm selling my Reef Drawers x2 with bamboo drawer, and wing kit for 200 series Land Cruiser. The drawers 40" wide and 40" deep, can be converted to 1 drawer also, interior dimensions are 18"W x 38"L x 6 3/4" H. The drawers are unfinished birch as they came, one drawer had a water bottle...

97 LX450 200K miles, 295/75/16, mild lift kit with OME BP51's. I'd like to put in the eaton E-lockers and possibly regear to 456. I did an install of a Trutrac on my front D60 axle for my 93 F350 so I have a good idea of what I am getting into with this but wanted to get input here on whether it...

Hey guys, I have seen a lot of people putting the dibinsons drawer system in their rig and i really enjoy seeing the results. I would like to build it myself but i cant find the specs online, not in this forum. Does anyone have a build sheet of the drawer system? I cant justify the 1,700 spend...

Does anybody know if there is any other weld yourself bumper kits out there besides coastal off road?

My 80’s alternator went out so I figured I’d jump on the bandwagon of putting bigger alternators on. At my local parts store they’re actually cheaper than stock 80 amp alternators. It seems Photoman’s no longer making his brackets and no one’s selling one at the moment so I decided to modify my...

Came across this and thought some of you might find it useful.... I haven't used and have no affiliation to it..... SHOOT... I forgot the link....what a d@#%@s here yah go......

I have a very simply DIY platform in the back of LC that I built after removing the 3rd row seats. For day to day driving, it doesn't really move around or shift at all, but I'd like a more secure way of tying it down. I normally keep my golf clubs / push cart under the platform, and the top is...

Any other DIY'ers want to share their ideas/solutions for sleeping platforms? This is what I came up with, note that the fridge slide/drawer have replaced the 3rd row, and are mounted on a carpeted piece of sealed plywood. This was mounted to the floor using existing holes, scrap sealed plywood...

Made me a board.... to put stuff on... : )

Hope this gets found, hope it fits in here, and someone uses it. Just replaced the steering wheel leather on my 2000 LC100, and it's made me very happy that I did it this way.

Starting work on my DIY front mount intercooler kit and documenting my progress... I begin by picking a universal intercooler the Mishimoto G-line universal intercooler. Going over the specs, this is way overkill and i could have made it easier on myself if i went with a smaller intercooler...

Had a few people on Facebook ask me to do a write up here for this so here goes. This is the overseas gauge cluster for some 60 series. I’m not sure which one it is. It is just an indicator light for your diff locks that goes where your seatbelt light is. You can recreate it by hitting up...

Well I got a wild hair last night... I thought I found the perfect off the (Marine/boat supply) shelf item for tailgate storage - That's a BOMAR cast aluminum storage hatch in approx the right size. BUT it's $700+ for 1 ouch Their plastic options are interesting but sit kinda high and still...
