Ohhh man...

Edit: Oh btw - the 100 series would not be going anywhere if this happened. Some of us have dignity.

Love the picts! I do want to point out the spring clip at the under the front leading edge (on the pointy side pointing to the front of the car) in that window roll-down button panel is a bit of a pain. Use something flat to push it back and lift the panel up and out of the door panel. I broke one once, although I found a new spring clip to buy (Part #: 90468-05114).

Yeah I was gonna say the biggest pain was removing the window controls. What I did was slightly pull it up from the front (front of car) and then you can see the metal pin underneath that holds it in place. You can then push that metal pin in with a flathead and it comes out easily.

What size tires did you go with? That will be my next upgrade after my refurb and suspension work is done. BTW, I have KO2s on my 4Runner and they have performed and held up very well. I don't think you can go wrong with them.

Went with 285/70/17. Had a little issue with rubbing but fixed it by hammering down the pinch welds and trimming some plastic. Ive loved my KO2s, going on the 2nd set and still no issues.

Added @alphaequipt commands and some new KO2s. Pretty happy with how they turned out.

Those look good, what’s the spec of those alphas?

Appreciate it! 17x8.5 5x150 with +15mm offset

Yeah... I said that once.... come drive my 80 with the new suspension.....

Today I replaced the speaker cloth… definitely not a fan of the color, I think I was way off when I ordered it. Luckily I found an easy way to get them out that doesn’t require taking the entire door card apart so I may paint or change it up later.

What’s your technique for easy removal of the speaker grills? I have one that is bare plastic that I’d like to recover.

Nice. I am running the Echos on 18x9 offset +25mm

I am eager to test out the dual air valve for airing up and down.

Gobi rack finally showed up 352 days after order. This old girl is done, vision realized. Just little things from here on out and my bank account is going to appreciate it.

They look killer! Same here, have a trip planned to the southwest Colorado the beginning of August and am looking forward to trying them out.

It’s amazing what you hear when you turn the subwoofer down a little…

 

[ClassyJalopy]

Installed a fuse block and finally cleaned up the aux lighting electrical with room for future expansion.

Really like that mount, did you make it yourself?

Thanks!

I did, I had just been keeping stickers for about a year now with this in mind. Have a few more after the Central Texas Land Cruiser Roundup today that'll go on soon.

Today I received my rhino hitch lock in the mail and it doesn’t fit… lol.

Anyone have any recommendations for a hitch lock?

Installed my spidertrax spacers on the front so I can finally drive the 100 again after swapping the rock warriors onto it from the 200.. little on napped in the tent with momma while I worked

I always figured people put spacers on all 4 wheels.....Is it common to just do the front?

 

[xXsnowXx]

Changed my front differential and transfer case oil and added some grease to the driveshaft. Not sure if the front diff and TC had ever been changed. Possibly but sure looked and felt like those fill and drain plugs had never been removed. Oil was pretty dark. Not much on the magnets which was nice to see.
