Where did you mount the rear camera?

I’ve got a 4x4Labs rear bumper with a tire carrier on one of the swing outs. I mounted it in the center of the tire. Metal bracket affixed with double stick tape and held in place by the tire.

Save your wheel. Buy three real lug nuts before the mounting holes are ruined.

Sorry but I would never try that.

I was digging around in the LX450 Electrical Wiring Diagram book, is there any way to translate a connector listed in that PDF into a part number?

Great advice. It came that way from the PO and never occurred to me…..

I actually bought an in/lb torque wrench but ended up just using a 1/4in ratchet to tighten about a 1/4 to 1/2 past finger tight.

I definitely recommend this approach. I have snapped one of those bolts both times I did this job, and that was WITH the inch pound torque wrench. Finger tight plus a 1/2 should be just right.

Just installed the mandatory ARB bumper! My truck is slowly veering away from stock . Also replaced all of the brake hoses. Gonna install a Warn 8k for now. Still have lots more to do but she's super fun to take out!

Drove the LC to my friend’s private range to do a little suppressed shooting. View attachment 2917345

9mm? Using subsonic ammo? bet that thing is quiet.

Yup, 150 grain Syntech 9mm. Very hearing safe but not as quiet as 165 grain Hush ammo. That stuff is music to my ears.

Added a cheap exterior/interior digital thermometer I found on Amazon.

It was designed for a later Toyota switch and still working on making it fit the 80 series style switch cutout, but it provides the temp with reasonable accuracy,

I have to do enough of (km/.919)/1.6 to figure out my speed.
