Once you get the shroud off, cut it in half horizontally So next time it will be much easier. I did this years ago and no problems. No regrets.

Love this. If I remember correctly I fumbled on the 22RE and guessing you can do the same with it.
Nice buy. Put up your experience in the tool thread instead of in TWT. Here you go:

Seems to be all the rage
New shop cats, Frick, Frack and Jack. I can't not feed them. We'll get them neutered and introduce them to the barn too. They hang at the shop most of the time

Scam likely...zero feedback/new seller. Don't use 'moneygram' for payment, lol!

Installed some slick little flush mount cheapie spot LEDs on the bumper, along with rocker switch... man these puppies are bright!
Used a tap and die for the first time... avoiding having to drill access holes in the back of the fully enclosed bumper. Man my bumper is heavy duty
Since I was in my dash wiring the led, I decided to address the rats nest of wiring from the P.O. removed an inverter, about two hundred feed of old unused wires from past PO projects: fog lights, amps, inverter, etc etc
Then rewired my cb and inclinometer to not turn off when headlights are flipped on... this stretched my abilities and patience but happy to report it’s all working. I am getting some weird behavior though... a couple minor gremlins to address in the future.

Ugh, I feel your pain, I deal with the same on most every build. I like the wire nuts on the left. Lots of butt connectors in view as well, I hate those things. Just take your time and check everything and repair it as you go. Putting all those wires into a loom of some sort will go a long way to prevent chafing.

Likely my final update, before the hurricane trip. Since I had some time last weekend, some motivation, and not enough time for bigger projects... decided to glam up my roof rack with some de-rusting and then a fresh coat of semi-gloss
Ya i did it the lazy way... but it worked well.

I got the 2767 earlier this year, paid a little over $200. The thing is heavy, but its a beast.
As someone very new to wrenching.. I’ve got a dumb question if someone is willing to entertain it.
99 LX470 Front diff bushings are shot and I finally have all 3 replacement supports ready to go. Can I just support the housing with a stand and swap out the supports, or does the differential need to come out entirely, which is a few zip codes past my skill level? One of the supports is built into the diff cover, for reasons beyond me.. thanks Lexus..
Also new to ONSC, hi!

Havent spent enough time under my 100 yet to fully answer that. I'll look tomorrow but I'd imagine you could support and do one at a time easily enough.
Snorkel snorkel time.... and a reminder to charge your drill battery before hand..... doh
And it seems like my 18V Dewalt battery has kicked it.... hoping my ancient ryobi 14.4 V can get the job done for now.
Turns out my original starter had a bit of a rust/corrosion issue causing intermittent starting issues, so dropped a new one in today. Also cleaned up the starter to frame ground a bit for good measure.
Got it all done earlier but couldn't find my rivnut tool so sleeping on either buying another or just using rivets.
