nice! I did the same a few weeks back - what fuse tap locations did you use? My unit keeps shutting down randomly and am working with tech support to try fix - may be dodgy unit......

I have a bluesea fuse box that has always hot and acc power. So my wiring was super easy! I use a tap from the cigarette lighter circuit to trigger the fuse box
Removed these. Do they have any value or should I just scrap them? Happy to send to anyone that pays me a couple bucks for beer and covers shipping. Both seemed to be working when removed.
Tried to get replace spare keys , local ACE only had valet key . Going to dealer see if they have key . Season still hot here in Florida .
The ABS unit is at least $100-200 used and working condition. No idea on the heater.
Messed around with the fuel pump relay after a no start at the gas station and a AAA tow home...Only the 2nd time in 12+ years of ownership that it needed a tow, first time was a tank of mostly water gasoline many years ago.
UPDATE Dealer can cut from vin / Non in stock $14 cut // Pull the trig?
What yr? Does it have a chip on the key? Our LX450 was not able to make us a spare(not valet) at ACE. Mobile key maker wants $180
I recently ordered blanks from my local dealer for 10 bucks each and cut them myself.(My local Ace couldn't get a blank either) If you don't have access to a key cutter, I'd imagine you could take the blanks to ace/a locksmith and have them cut.What yr?

Unfortunately mine has the transponder chip. ACE verified it by inserting the key into a sensor. One day i will look at the key code on the "tumbler".
Dug into my "new" 80 for the first time. Tackled the PHH and some related hoses. Definitely not my favorite project, but I'm glad it's done. Waiting on a new heater valve so I've bypassed that for now. It was surprisingly difficult to find constant tension clamps locally.

@GGM front and rear differential skids up to the task! And the winch mount too, didn’t get a pic of mine winching out, first time, put the 12k to the test for sure. Whole group had to winch out here, not my 80 on the pull, but gives an idea of the scenario.…thanks for your stout equipment!
Trip was to Good Evening Ranch in W VA, great fun for every level.

That's really nice. How much ground clearance would you say you've lost since adding the diff housing skid plates? Is it minimal?

Agreed...minimal clearance loss, but a lot of peace of mind gained, especially here with our East Coast wheeling that is full of jagged rock gardens.
Here's a pic of a club mate's front that he was putting to work too...shows the mounting a bit better than my muddy mess!
