New stoppers all the way around yesterday. Used these Powerstop kits off Amazon. I like them so far. My Ring cam documented the entire process.

I did my brakes this weekend too. Just the fronts and went Bosch. I wasn’t totally sold on powerstop yet. Either way, very few things as satisfying as brand new brakes. My old rotors were warped and scored really badly.

Looks rad! Well done.

Motivation for me to get mine out of my wife's parking spot in the garage.

What tow hooks are you running?
 
I put new brakes all the way around, replaced the rear dr. side caliper, bled the brakes and rotated the tires. No pics so I don't if really happened.
 
Installed Extended sway bar links (Trail Tailor), as I've been sans swaybar for like 5 years. Oil change, zercs greased, discovered my rear maln seal is leaking, rebadged my back hatch with the chrome Land Cruiser Emblem. Seafoamed engine, cleaned throttle body, removed rear dust/wind deflector. New rear oil seal next week, trans mount and engine mounts, and painting all silver/gray trim to match white body. Overall a renovation for my 99, it's due.

And....more importantly, shared with my wife that basically the cruiser is now the "lifetime" ownership vehicle. As in, whatever needs attention to keep it running forever will happen. No more vehicles for me. Approaching the magical 50, and I'll never want another vehicle, because all the other vehicles I have the opportunity to drive suck. Call me set in my ways, but I'm happy, Life is good. :cheers:

@Kofoed how much were those OEM axels there?
 
Fixed a few rattles. and installed a Front Runner roof rack. the bags with the hardware all were opened up and spewed everywhere in the boxes so when it came to the finishing touches i was five locking washers short. will contact front runner but super happy with the rack and how it looks. took me a few hours to assemble the rack and a few hours with a friend to mount it.

I have some in my parts box. not sure if I want to tackle them yet. How long did it take you? How did you extract the old ones?

X2 on this. I have a set of Whiteline bushings that have been sitting in my garage yet to be installed because I've heard how difficult the old ones can be to remove. Got any good tips @nmatcek?
