Lumberjack Engineering: Exquisitely Engineered solutions for the 100 Series Platform.

[LJE]

I'm now offering the Wolfbox G930 + full Lumberjack Engineering mounting kit as a combo! This is exactly what I have in my truck, and I love it. The G930 is the same size as the OEM 10" mirror, so it's a perfect fit! Grab one today here!

Nice work, you might want to post up some more photos of the final mounted product. I'm not sure many folks understand why this is important and needed for the wolfbox.

Someone did recently send me some nice installed photos, I definitely should get those up on the site!

Also planning an install video soon too.

Does the full kit come with the hardwire kit included or do I have to order it separately from Wolfbox. Thanks

Great question! That's still a separate order - the full kit (G930 +mounting kit) does come with the cigarette lighter adaptor, but not the fuse box hardwire kit.

One last thing, will it work with the wi-fi version of the G930, thanks

The mounting kit will work with both the Wifi & non-Wifi G930 - the exteriors (and features) of the two are exactly the same, sans the Wifi capability.

Another update! The design for the 98-02 Center Differential Lock switch guard is done! I've had the 03-07 version available for a while, but now the folks with older cruisers can have one too!

I know there's some other designs that include a cover, but I like to try to avoid the additional bulk & I feel like this is a good solution. You'd really, really, really have to be trying to accidently activate it with this guard in place.

Like the 03-07 version, it attaches via 3M body mount double-sided tape (included), so install is easy & it holds the contoured back nice & tight to the faceplate trim.

Available over here!

Just ordered the kit and was wandering if you could provide a pic with the fuse box connections you did with the hardwire kit for the G930. Thanks

BEHOLD… The Wedgie™: Patent (not actually) pending, dignity certainly not included. Get one over at theartisangarage.com today!

View attachment 4008695

After a series of late-night “what-ifs,” one too many cups of coffee, 6 iterations, and at least three stripped screws, I have finally done it. Lumberjack Engineering has created The Wedgie™ — the phone mount adaptor that turns your useless cassette deck into a gloriously over-engineered mounting station for modern devices.

View attachment 4008696

Installation is simple: You just slide The Wedgie™ into your cassette deck at a slight angle, tighten the three screws, and feel the wedge pull tight into the rear, locking the cheeks, -ahem- tabs in place until the whole thing feels like Excalibur in reverse.

When I say this thing holds tight, I mean TIGHT. I could probably tow a small trailer with it (please don’t). However, if you happen to stumble through a rip in the space-time continuum and end up back in 1995 when the cassette deck was actually useful, removal is just as easy as installation - loosen the three screws, and remove the assembly.

I was so impressed with how well it performs that I'm currently designing The Double Wedgie™ — for when one phone/device just isn’t enough. Just imagine: your phone and your tablet, side-by-side, in perfect wedgied harmony. A true symphony of overkill.

Currently designed to work with a RAM "B" mount diamond base (not included, but the phone mount you see mounted in the photos is available over here, or on Amazon). Want to use a different phone mount? Don't hesitate to reach out! I'll wedgie anyone thing that I can get my hands on.

The Wedgie™ — Because tight fits build character.

(RAM phone mount assembly not included - the first photo shows what will be included (i.e, The Wedgie + necessary hardware)

Will this work with a 2004 LC100? The web site suggests it won't, but I wanted to check before giving up hope.

Give me a week to confirm fitment and it will!
The LC and LX have different depth tape decks - I found this out the hard way when a customer that bought an original Wedgie told me that it was super loose in his LC. I've been working with him to get new measurements, but I also was able to grab measurements myself on a 03 LC out at the Cruisers on the Rocks event this past week. I'm printing new ones this evening that should fit the LC & I'm sending them out to a few people to check fitment.

For posterity, an 2003-2007 LX has a tape deck opening-to-faceplate dimension of ~14mm, while a 2003-2007 LC has 7.7mm. Wild. Wish I could have all the 100 series variants sitting in my driveway - would make this whole thing way easier.

Thanks for the update. Will DM you on getting one ASAP.

New battery terminal cover options!

These are the Vgate AF12 - the smaller sibling to the A12 terminals. I think these are a great size! The covers will be up on the website later today, but if you're looking for a set of these terminals + covers shoot me a message! I've got the set I used to design the covers, and would bundle them with both a positive & negative cover for $70 shipped to your door.

Like my other terminal covers, these are printed out of a oil & heat resistant urethane. Perfect to prevent accidental arc welding between terminals!

PM sent, I'll take them

Got some nice install photos from a customer of the Wolfbox mounting kit! These kits now come with a replacement screw to mount the arm to the mount glued to the windshield - in case you accidently strip out the factory screw trying to get it out of the OEM mount arm.

Also realized that the kit was showing out of stock on TAG (Wolfbox & Wolfbox Mounts for the 100 Series Landcruiser/LX470 - https://theartisangarage.com/products/wolfbox-mounts-for-the-100-series-Landcruiser-lx470), but that's fixed now too.

 

[MongooseGA]

Y'all should grab the wolfbox mounts asap because Alex has been selling a ton of them!

To those who have, thank you for supporting LJE and TAG! These are small businesses motivated by passion and it's been really awesome to see the community response. Y'all are awesome!

Check it out:
The 03-07 LX Wedgie also works great on the 98-02 non-nav LX470 radio! Website is updated, so go grab one today!

In the final stages of validation for the 03-07 LC version (ugh, why do people always take so long to provide fitment feedback? Hah), so that should be available soon!

Can anyone provide the below dimension (effectively the "depth" of the cassette opening) for the 98-02 nav LX470 and 98-02 LC?

Photos from a customer of a winch control box mount that I designed! This tucks the control box right behind the passenger headlight, in front of the airbox.

Sorry. Just want to confirm this here (03-07 variant) fits my 00 LX470 with the nakamichi head unit with NO nav? It’s the only variant on the website.

Yessir - it'll fit your headunit perfectly (assuming it looks like the one in the photos above). I'll re-word the website listing to make it a little more clear, because it's certainly not optimal, haha.
