Hola, mi hundo amigos. There is a Raingler Nets group buy happening in the 2hundo forum that I thought might interest you. Right now we are at 15% off with 17 buyers. At 20 is 20% off. At 25 is 25% off. I think we can get to 25/25% with a little help from our friends. See the link below. Also posted in the classifieds Group buy section that goes to the same link. The host and key master is @g1701gst

Wet sanding the hood in preparation to repaint it. The paint was peeling and pretty bad.
Starting photo.
Progress after one night of sanding. Probably needs one more night of sanding.

Built an integrated QI charging Ram mount.
Repainted the LC wheels on my LX. Not perfect but should keep me from wanting to upgrade to 18" wheels for a while. Also debating on throwing the center caps back on, looks kinda better without.
Installed the @TRAIL TAILOR diff drop. Instructions are pretty clear and everything fits together. Hopefully it will make my new CV axles happier.
But now you can't play any of those kick butt mix tapes
The only tape I could find in the crates when I brought the rig home was a Public Enemy and I have worn that out.
Amazon music unlimited via Bluetooth works great for me, can download virtually anything for use offline as well.
I've been getting P0430 code maybe once every gas tank (fairly rarely) for the past year. Decided to try an O2 Sensor replacement since I'm at 212K miles and I believe they are original, plus the downstream ones (P0430 is passenger side downstream/CAT sensor) were under $50 on Amazon. Decided to do both sides (just downstream), they came out easier than I would have guessed (thanks Kroil) and struggled more with plastic clip than the plug. New ones in, no codes in first 40 miles, but won't feel successful until I go maybe 3 tanks - which takes me months.
Installed two 8inch light bars in the lower grill, wanted some extra light, but didn't want it to scream "look at me I have after market lights"
I finally got a chance to install a Mauser "virginized" ECU into our old 99 LX that only came with a valet/sub key

It was a pretty simple swap, and it's a relief to have a full set of working keys!
Thanks @Mauser !
ECU flashing for 100 series
I do ECU flashing for 1998-2001 100 series Land Cruisers and Lexus LX470. If you only have a valet key or have lost all your keys I can help.

100 series master key thread
There are a lot of posts about this. I am going to try to make one thread with all needed key information I can think of. I am not much of a writer so I will try to explain the best I can. Our 100 series Land Cruisers and Lexus Lx470s all have an ignition immobilizer. What this system does is...

I recently used the same eBay seller, for a set of manuals for our 1999 LX470.

I epoxied the QI charger to the Ram mount.

New OEM steering rack with SuperPro poly bushes. A couple weeks ago the original rack started hemorrhaging fluid at the input shaft/valve body - did not appreciate the mess it started to make on the garage floor at all ....
Replaced drivers side front differential mount bushing with SuperPro unit, the original was toast. This has cured 95% of my driveline shift thunk...
