New 1999 100 Series Owner

[PIPO]

Sup guys. After selling all my toys and toy hauler I had no need for a diesel truck so I sold my 2010 F250 6.4 PSD and bought me a 1999 LC. I did some reading for about a week or so before I went shopping. I ended up with this truck because it had low miles (123K), had service records to include the timing belt done and because it slept in a garage....WA weather isn't that nice. I wasted no time in removing the running boards, faded fake wood trim, changed the oil, ordered the skid plate for the oil drain plug that was missing, a new power antenna (link is broken) and I just ordered a set of OUTPOST sliders which I plan to pick up in 2 weeks. I also replaced the stock mats for weathertech floor liners. I also wasted no time taking her off road...loved it! Very impressed b with it's capabilities, especially with the diff locked . 33's are next in my to "need" to buy list.

Thanks...umm, really? I can swear one of the other white LC's had white bumpers. I was looking specifically for a white one.
Anyway, between my first post and this one I ate dinner, changed clothes, parked the LC in the garage and replace the broken antenna. I didn't remove the wheel though, just the outer lip of the inner fender.

I followed this instruction here https://forum.ih8mud.com/100-series...-problem-but-antenna-broken-now-now-what.html, except that on mine I put the link with the teeth facing towards the front.

A turbo raptor and a rhino.


And a Ford F250.

Different how? I love the smooth ride of my stock LC...and off road rides very good as well. I mean, I'm comparing with a heavy duty truck so there might be some room for improvement.
