"but why?"

"but why?"

I saw that too and wondered. But, I've known too many people who "dive" into a hobby, overspend (get in over their heads), don't use it how they thought they would and sell for a loss. Could be one of those. Worth a look I figure.

"but why?"

besides living in a city and not Utah, I'm especially reluctant to lock my axles whenever I read things like that

Yeah, truck is in San Antonio. I live in Austin and there is practically nothing around here that requires full locking difs. My LX has an LSD in the rear and no lock up front. I've yet to find a reason to engage even the Center Dif Lock. I've been able to go through or over anything I've tried. Might change my tune next month when I head up to CO to do some "real" offroading

What's with the crossbar over the engine bay?

Looks like a strut tower brace. Though, it doesn't appear to be attached to any strut tower and I honestly don't why you'd need to "stiffen" the front of an IFS LandCruiser. Maybe they thought the IFS was more flexy than the solid axle? All of the other stuff looks well thought out, but this just looks like something kids do to their Mazda3's to make them Faster and Furious...er

I don't know, but it sure would be handy when changing the heater tees. Engine cover de-rattler?
