Gotta get these Procar seats in. Using Planted brackets.
My Sheel-Mann will be in classified soon.

If there is time chuck in these @landtank LCA (my Landtank extended LCA will be in classified soon)

Also don’t believe the internet reviews. This light is garbage.

Why are you switching to Procar?

 

[CrzrGuinevere]

here are the speakers I used (I mis-stated in a previous post I used Kenwoods in the rear, but I used Alpine all around)

Also added the Alpine powered subwoofer in the rear…. which remains a work in progress…

I do have an extra set of the 5-1/4” Alpines if someone has interest (my original plan was to cut out larger holes and use in the rear door panels, but in the end decided against cutting my newly recovered door panels)

Thanks for the info. So you did 4" all around? Or 5.25" up front and 4" rears?

Why are you switching to Procar?

I wanted a matching driver and passenger but the sheel-Mann have become too expensive. IMHO. I can’t justify $3700 for a matching passenger.

Nothing crazy, but I removed the shifter console and covered it with carbon fiber vinyl. I really like the look. Now I want to cover more with it. I also want a nicer looking high-low shift knob now too. View attachment 3999463

This looks great. Is it like paint prep and you can't have any scratches underneath or it shows through? I would imagine not but thinking of doing the same to my console. Thanks

New register day

View attachment 3975760

Part number on those? I’ve been looking.

 

[nigelsiam]

Still running around Utah. I lost a center cap so if anyone has one (especially in the Moab area) let me know please

Yes they do, depending on what color you need. I know the black and white are still available. I ordered them from Partsouq.
For the white, only this P/N below still exists so you have to cut them to do the rear flares. Not sure about black or other colors.
The flare gaskets took a lot of patience to do. My advice is to get a couple extras.

Thanks for providing the part number. I just ordered 6 packs of this stuff from Toyota. Received my package and it looks nice!

I do have a question, I noticed some sections of the new gasket have little "waves" or "ripples" whatever you want to call them, same as in the picture you posted of the gasket still sealed inside the package. Did that give you any trouble during the install? I'm trying to figure out if using a little bit of heat (with a hair dryer) or even running a steamer might help remove those small wrinkles in the gasket?

I Google'd the part number and the pictures they have on Patrsouq (check my link) also show gaskets with similar "issues" so I'm thinking it's normal.

I just ordered a few small parts I couldn't find in the US, only $30, and they hit me with a $15 tariff plus a $17 processing fee, more than doubling the price.

Still cheeper than the dealer?

I got a few extra center caps pm me if you’re still in need.

Made some progress on my second battery setup!

No. I just clean the surface with isopropyl alcohol before I apply the vinyl.

5-1/4” fronts. 4” in the rears. That is the same as OEM

An 80 with a rucksack. What'll they think of next?

In the picture in question I just made winch hill one on Fordyce trail without winching, body damage or breakage and all you can think of is a rucksack. their actually called a trasharoo
My 80 is a no frills all business trail rig made to tackle obstacles just like this.
Hell it doesn’t even have a after market stereo

Finally dove in and replaced front rotors, calipers, and re-packed bearings. Went with OE Refurbished Calipers - as luck would have it one of them was not correct, will have to wait another week for the replacement to arrive. Even with, one old one still on braking is 100% more responsive.

I think the ripples are normal, all of mine had them. Probably from being coiled up in the package.

I laid mine out straight out in the sun while I was removing the flare for install of the new gasket and it seemed to help. Some of the ripples laid flat during install though.

That's great to hear. Thank you!

The trees are beautiful! I chatted with a couple guys the other day, They each bagged a deer.

 

[tcolt45]

Wasn’t a fan of the LED taillights that came with my LC plus the lenses were scratched up so I finally replaced them.

Alright! A man after my own heart who’s not afraid of getting a bit of blood on his tailgate and rear cargo area carpets.

Congratulations on a successful hunt!
