What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (20 Viewers)

[SmoothLC]

Merry Christmas to me!

New timing belt, water pump, thermostat, (h/t @cruiseroutfit - kit at CruiserTeq), radiator, starter, wheels and tires. Who knew a Koyo radiator barely lasted past the 3 year warranty?

Thankfully, bought many of the parts previously which eased the sting ($).

And thought I'd try Bridgestone's new Dueler A/T Ascent tires. Thankfully, Discount Tire price matched Costco's discount on them which runs through tomorrow BTW. Found out Costco doesn't install tires 3% over OEM size just in time. I was leaning towards KO3s or A/T4Ws, but eventually wanted something lighter.

Time to hit the trails again. Happy trails and enjoy the holidays.

Went slick top.

Pulled the Front Runner rack since it wasn't seeing any use

1.5" = 38mm. Stock offset is +60 so that makes your effective offset +22. 3/4" spacers will give you an effective offset of +41 and make fitment easier.

Sorry, I had the 1.25” wheel spacers and factory wheels at first. I have the icon +25 wheels now

I can't tell if you're asking for advice or trying to give some? I'm already on 35's, regeared and everything clears.

With that combo you'll either need to limit up travel, cut your fenders or give it a body lift to keep the tires off the fenders on compression. If you still have the factory AHC torsion bars they need to be upgraded to at least OEM non AHC bars.

Haha, thought I was talking to nates. No wonder the confusion.

Can you give me some info on the "Rubi-grid" mount...I take it that it's from Bulletpoint, but which one did you use, and how was the mounting done? Thanks!

I have this one, I found it on eBay for about $60, cheaper than the universal mount on their website.

I mounted it to the dash pad using four bolts with fender washers on the inside. I was installing a ATOTO head unit at same time and found a spot for the Rubi-Grid that was comfortable to use and the bolts I used didn't interfere with head unit.

Scrubbing dried mud from around the inside rear fenders. Shocking how much accumulates here.

Forgive me if this info is elsewhere...who makes that grille? Does it come with everything or do you need to acquire/apply an OEM TOYOTA badge?

Vacation rig that stays out in Colorado and Utah that we fly to. The LED fog lights on the bumper more than make up for the junk headlights! If it was a daily driver then yeah, the headlights would have to go! They suck!

Yeah, but they suck in a nostalgic way....

Thanks!

I ordered the V8 badge separately from their website I recall now. The grille also came with the four amber lights but I did not install those.

I wouldn't install them either...trying too hard to look like a modern truck (That isn't required to have those either)
