Gave up on aesthetics, finally installed my very own dorkel. I got the Amazon special (Amazon product ASIN B01NBIQFK3) and followed the thread here. I was expecting the template to have at least one of the holes off-center, but every hole turned up roses. Little bit of primer to seal up the shiny parts, and good to go.
Next I'll look for either a 70-series or 80-series head to put on it and call it good.
(No, I can't park. And the camera adds at least 100 pounds by the look of it.)
I also replaced the fan shroud. When I did the timing belt last year, I broke the OG shroud and used zip ties to fasten the top right side. Somewhere along the freeway a couple of weeks ago, she let me know a half-assed job was no good and ate the entire right side of the shroud (where it went, no one knows. The skids didn't catch it). The fan is scraped up, but otherwise no worse for wear.

Finally installed the GROM vline 2, and the Rammount for my tablet
I'm going to pull my vents tomorrow to find a rattle. Did you just use trim tools to remove the lower wood trim then pull the vents out from there?

I found the head and foot RAM Mount parts, but what shaft is that? Part number or link please. That’s exactly what I’ve been wanting to do with my iPad I use for off-road navigation.
Here are some photos of my build. . About to head to CO for a month.
Here are some photos. I ended up adding a front runner rack, new from axles, Borla exhaust ( very nice), Slee second battery with blue sea ACR, and built some drawers for the back. I am leaving for my first trip towards the end of the week.

Changed the turn signal relay out for one to work with LED. Also figured out why my front left turn signal was not working. Ended up that the tab inside to bulb socket had been pushed down and was no longer making a connection with the bulb.
Now to try and figure out why my fog lights are not working at all.

Took her on the Georgia Traverse with a couple buddies and a 4th gen. All was going well until day 2 we got halfway up Tray Mountain and I lost power suddenly, sounded like a CV axle was dragging. I stopped threw it in park and hopped out to see if the axle was dragging. To my surprise the axle was not dragging but my truck was now rolling down the hill. Hopped back in and stepped on the brake before I hit anything. Nothing will engage, not even park. Put everything in neutral, threw a tow strap on her and limped down the mountain to meet AAA. Met another mudder in a 100 who works for Toyota and he suggested that I try engaging the CDL and sure enough she drives like that. Not safe for highway driving though. Made some hot dogs while we waited for the tow truck which arrived 5 hours later. AAA covered the 126 mile tow back to Asheville completely since we waited so long. What we got to see of the Georgia Traverse was awesome though, we'll have to go back and finish it at some point.

Check C-clips of hub flange, pop center cap off wheel and dust cover off. Check drive shaft's C clip.
What's up with the graffiti on the ground? People suck man.
Retrofitted AC condenser fan on my 04LC. Thanks a lot for @LandCruiserPhil and @whitenoise for their write-ups.

Yeah that trip was not nice on tires. I have a couple marks on my sidewalls but nothing serious. Looks good on the 16s, thats what I'm running. Thanks for the rack BTW.
Thanks. I had a slice from a prior trip that looked serious enough to move to my spare. I drove home on that tire. I couldn't see the cords in the sidewall and they were holding air, so they may have been okay. I have been angling for 16s anyway, so it wasn't hard to talk myself into a new set.
You're welcome on the rack. Glad we met up.
Hit up Canoegrass and helped host a stray camper.
RIP leather seats

Added the @TRAIL TAILOR adjustable rear lower control arms. I realized the entire rear suspension is TT or TD and has a nice red look to it. It tightened up the whole back end. Next week I’m doing the front, rack, lca’s, new bolts and bushings. To get ready I cleaned the fluid film off of “everything”. While I’m at it I welded up some skid plates on the front lower control arms.
