Thanks for sharing it, LRA is in order supposed to arrive this month
Thanks for sharing the reason. That is something to think about if anyone is thinking of adding a long range fuel tank to their 100 with older/deteriorating upper control arm bushings.

Ditched my center console arm rest cover that had 245k on it. thing was looking rough. Slapped on a new Lseat that was only 20 bucks shipped.
My latch for said upper console was also broken, and found a guy online that sells them from junk yards for like 15 bucks (rumor has it you cannot buy just the latch button for these...entire cover assembly must be purchased). so that worked out great.

Looks great. I can't find that on their website. Can you send a link? Seems like a steal.

Am I mis-reading that or are you saying that the left front seat skin in the picture next to your new console cover was only $20? If so they look great and I would love to know where to find them.

PO was a sloppy coffee drinker and chain smoker. Finally got the smoke smell out and all the coffee stains out. The Smoke Choker did a good job
On the advice of a member on another forum, I have used an Ozone machine to get rid of smoke smells from my car. That machine worked wonders!!

Finished installing a replacement LCD and the GROM vLine in the LX. Took a few tries to get the ribbon cable seated behind the LCD panel. BT audio quality is awesome with the GROM. Just have to figure out how to get the phone calls to go through this unit and also get some more apps installed.
Can you show a pic of replacement?

I installed a new OEM steering rack in my 300k+ mile rig. While I was in there, I also replaced the original motor mounts and transmission mount, the oil cooler to block (figure 8) seal, which was completely flattened and was weeping oil, the oil cooler coolant hoses, etc. I was a greasy mess, but my rig feels like it's brand new! It tracks great and there is so much less vibration.

I ordered the rack from Salinas Toyota for a great price with free shipping.

New shoes! The old ST Maxx were extremely loud and rough with 45k miles on them so I replaced them with General Grabber ATX. I had to change tire size and go with a 285/75R16 since there are no AT's in a 255/85R16 which I had been running.

Scraped a lot of CV goop off my LCAs. My suspension should work better without all that unsprung weight.
I also finally changed the heater Ts. It wasn’t as bad of a job as some of you guys make it out to be, but having the right kind of pliers for those clamps makes a huge difference. One of the Ts broke when removing it!

Does anyone have any use for my old steering rack that I just removed? I didn't have to pay a core charge, so I don't have to send it back. It's probably not worth shipping, but if anyone local (Boise) wants it then let me know.

Well time to eat crow. 2-3 months ago I installed Autozone Duralast Gold cv axles in my 100 series. First camping trip went great, no issues. This last trip, as soon as I got home I heard the infamous CV axle pop, pop, pop. Has gotten progressively worse over the last couple weeks. Ordered a Cardone HD axle and replaced the driver side. Noise completely gone. Got my money back from Autozone. Took 30-40 mins of work. Lesson learned and the boys here at Ih8mud were 100% right.
