What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (38 Viewers)

[LXKevin]

LX470 reliably took me to a nice spot in the high desert to test out my new Skydio 2 drone! Waited a whole year to get it, makes capturing videos super easy as its autonomous and follows me by itself. So don't need a co pilot to record and can focus on the driving.

Sweet!

Took delivery of my first 100/470 series. Bought sight unseen and was very concerned about general condition but more or less pleased. All original body panels. No rust from NC. No service history but general appearance leads me to believe it wasn't complelty neglected. Long list of PM to begin right away and some great help from awesome people here on mud getting my keys figured out. Only came with valet key. My kids might ever let me drive this one till I can get my own.

Hit up @Mauser or check his key thread. He programs new immobilizer chip to solder on. I did that and then made new master keys after only having a valet.

I am new to the 100 series. Coming from the 40 forum OCD Bettle has a really successful, fun thread where we post a pic of wheeling, a fix, a new part, etc. for our trucks.

It's neat to see the mix of projects, daily driving issues, weekend wheelin reports, etc.

I thought the 100 forum could use one...

I'll start...today I ordered an Iron Man 2 inch lift kit for my 99'.

Sweet what year and mileage?

2000 with 192k

Yes, we have been in contact. Thank you.

Today was project Tundra Steelies. Scored a set for $30 bucks. Painted them with Duplicolor Wheel paint in GunMetal Grey because everyone else does black and bronze. So...I have the IronMan Pro Cell Foam lift. How big of a tire can I fit if I do the pinch weld mod, etc.? Will a 33x12.50x18 fit? I wanna run the Patagonia MT tires.

Still waiting for mines. Amazing!!!!!

i can’t believe you only have 84k on the odo!

I'm a bike commuter on the weekdays, and quarantine/work from home has been helping keep the miles low on the rig!

Found a little bit of snow in So Cal this weekend. Also, big thanks to @larryt for meeting up with me on real quick notice with a wheel for a sixth spare!

So I made a thing today....

For some time now, I've been concerned about the theft of my rig after hearing that even with the transponder key anti-theft system (that sounds impenetrable enough), Land Cruisers are still being stolen (even locally) by experienced thieves holding the right tools (replacing the computer, etc). Knowing that, I wanted to make it as difficult as possible to run and drive (here at home, or out on the street) even if that system was bypassed. Leaving the thief with either towing or pushing it down the street as the only way to move it.

I know it won't run without the fuel pump fuse intact and in place, so I made a harness the replaces it with a remote fuse wired to an on-off switch. Ultimately, it's just a deterrent for someone who actually knows how to diagnose, but who's going to do that? It certainly increases the complexity of stealing this particular vehicle- right? If somebody who really knows what they're doing goes looking, this is obvious. But the average dirtbag won't even know to look. If it doesn't start, that will likely be the end of it. Any thoughts on this?

So are you just going to leave the switch in the fuse box?

I completed my first ever wheel bearing service. Took awhile and had some supid moments but in the end it worked out.
Thanks for the community insight I never would have believed I could do it.

Like the look but how does it affect turning radius? If not too bad thinking of picking up a set myself.

Installed 1.25 Bora spacers

That looks great!!! It's just $$$. Dear Santa....

That looks great! How many inches do you have up front from the center of the hub spindle to the fender lip? I can't seem to get anymore than 21.25 on one side and 21.5 on the other.

New tires, newish wheels, Bora 1.25" spacers, and fresh tints. Now to get rid of that ugly useless roof rack for a nice Gamiviti.

 

[Hanrahan]

Bought some 2017 Tundra Rims and used the caps off my stock wheels. Sanded sprayed, and mounted on with Cooper Tires

That was the thought, but I've scrapped that idea for now. It's still on my mind though..

Hell yeah, I love it when people don't take shortcuts and do things the right way.
