So -traded in the 2013 LC and came home with the 2018 Onyx Blue/black interior... then immediately proceeded to install my dual battery wiring from the 2013 ...

Awesome! I'm curious if you found this locally? I think I've seen one black and one white on the lot at Steven's Creek Toyota?
 
@indycole -found it in Fremont .. there are like 4 in Kalifornia .... Stevens has a silver -no blue ...
 
Congrats!

I see they still mount those Dunlops. I can't believe I'm saying it,but I wish mine would hurry up and wear out (too cheap to just swap out).
 
thank you @reevesci

@LBridges -I can't drive on those tires .. it feels funny :grinpimp: -so ordered my Nitto Trail Grapplers today ... should install in time with the lift...
 
My 2015 came with brand new Dunslops Grandtrash tires. I changed them within 10 days!

Changed mine within the first week. I was able to essentially sell the Dunlops as new. I knew before I even bought my LC that I wanted E-rated tires and had had great a great experience on my LR4 with KO2s. I didn't want to chance any trails with the stock tires. They may have been just fine but it seems that lots of things work "fine" until they don't.

Congrats on the new LC! I get teased by some folks for the "safe" mods I have done to a new LC. But I don't feel bad at all seeing that you have ripped the guts out of the electronics almost as soon as you got it off the lot! :)
 
Beautiful vehicle. Looks like mine’s twin brother, exact same colors.

I haven’t changed stock on mine yet. But waiting for tires to wear out.

Have a beater truck for rough stuff right now but it won’t be long before my LC takes over hunting and camping duty.
 
In Sacramento area, Roseville Toyota always has few in stock. Enjoy new rig. Congratulations!
 
Looks great!!!
Congrats!!!
 
ok..... got new shoes and my Tough Dog lift in!!!

Along the way, I dislocated a CV and had to pull the half shaft to remedy that (simple fix really, remove, stick the bearings back into their cage then reboot .... (only pain is that you have to special order the damn cv clamps -so i got me a universal set (after some trial and error -plus I butchered the original toyota ones ... :doh:

before!

Isn't it amazing how tires and a lift instantly catapult it into a "truck"?

Congrats!
 
the work in between ...
