The only factory transmission cooler for this truck is located within the radiator. This auxiliary cooler is run after the radiator cooler, before the fluid returns to the transmission.Doesn't the 100 already have a pretty substantial transmission cooler? Are you running the aftermarket one in parallel to the factory cooler?
Yes they are factory. This part is just the step, you would also need end caps and potentially mounting brackets...5178260151 - Running Board (Left). Floor, FRONT, Interior - Genuine Lexus Part - https://parts.lexus.com/p/Lexus__/Running-Board-LeftLeft/63047646/5178260151.htmlThis is a really dumb/off topic question. Does anyone know if those are OEM running boards? They look way more useful than the US spec ones. I wonder how one would search for that information on finding some?
Excellent pictures!Its Called Overlanding, Bro....
Over the past couple months we drove over 2,000 miles around Zambia and Zimbabwe, exploring new and remote places all while having a fantastic time thanks to the reliability, durability, and capability of the Landcruiser.
One area we visited is called "The Corner" because it is a piece of Zimbabwe that juts into Mozambique in the Chimanimani mountain range. The mountain tracks were fun to drive, the air crisp and clean, and the views unforgettable.

Back in Zambia, we explored Kasanka National Park during the largest mammal migration on earth...where 10 million bats migrate from DRC to Zambia to feed in fruit tree groves in this one specific area in Zambia.

You can only see the bats at dawn or dusk and I think most people who visit the park just hang out at the lodge all day between the viewing times...we certainly didn't see anyone else doing self-drive safaris during the 3 days we explored the park. The trail system was very overgrown, but luckily I have a handy helper when it comes to obstacles!

Deep in the park and not signposted in any way is the tallest tree in Zambia, rising somewhere between 40-65 meters tall. Here is a pic of the Landcruiser parked next to it. Pretty impressive, actually! The story goes that the area at the base of the tree was used as a royal burial ground hundreds of years ago, so the locals simply never cut this one tree down and it grew to this extreme height.

The camp spot was nice, with a "boma" structure and a camp attendant who would boil water for us to use for showers (not that we needed to rely on that, since the trailer is equipped with a shower setup including an instant propane water heater and 120 liters of water). There is no cell phone signal in this area, no electricity, and definitely no internet...so it was the perfect first test run for our mobile Starlink setup. See if you can spot it in this pic...

Not bad for an obstructed view in the middle of extreme wilderness!

Yes, known to other campers as the "Taj-ma-Tent" or "Royal Palace" it truly does sleep 7 in total comfort. The tent is custom made for the trailer, which is an Echo4x4 Tec2.Excellent pictures!
What type of tent is that, it is like a palace!
