New, proper size AGM battery. Ordering the Slee secondary battery tray tomorrow. Now I need a throttle position sensor. Where are we getting OEM parts since Dan retired?

Not to be a dick man, but it seems like after having an account for almost 13yrs you would've found the search bar by now...

Greased the shafts and joints. Drained 4 quarts from the tranny and added it back. Checked all the fluids.
Slapped the Stihl on top.
Getting ready for a trip to the Ozarks Saturday. Can’t wait to drive it.
Whats your technique to get 4 qts out with a drain & fill. Did you drop the pan or lift the front. I did a drain & fill recently and only got 2.5 qts- with front end lifted as high as my floor jack would go.
 
Added one for my oldest daughter. 1999 with 258k miles.

Needs:
Front and rear OEM bumpers - Gray if possible and on the east coast
Front skid plate

* Steering Wheel Wood Grain Leather Grip Toyota Land Cruiser 100 LX470 98-02 | eBay

looks like wood, but who knows. 200 bucks shipped to me. Install was a pain in the ass. I had a real hard time lining the airbag back up and getting it installed. Ended up taking it to a guy that does collision repair. 30 bucks and 10 minutes later, I was on my way. Now I need to replace the airbag toyota sombrero logo. its peeling a bit after 20 years...
 
PS pump/Suction Hose/PS Air Control Valve chasing steering issues. Steering is improved, but still not where i want it to be.

I'd better get some inheritance soon. LOL

Just removed some unnecessary metal I found on my truck. Purists look away

Your undercarriage looks factory new!

How's it feel now with the parts installed ?

It feels a lot better. Shocks and bushings were all original.

Steering, handling, and overall stiffness feels good. Hard to explain exactly but yes it was a big improvement.

I think I'll get the total pay-off when I change out the rear shocks and bushings. They are original as well. Hopefully in the next week or so on those.
