What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (38 Viewers)

[Shane Drummond]

Fitted a Warn 8000 lb winch in place of the Warn 9000 lb that stopped working, kept the same controls because they work and all the fittings etc are in the right place. U can see I cut the stock bumper to fit the winch when I had to drop it down to fit a bigger intercooler... Martiens Booysen has had a pretty good bumper made in SA that I will hopefully one day afford once I rip off mine on a trail



Also easy to see the bigger intercooler from this shot! I used the tabor quick release vs the Warn quick release as it fits under the intercooler. Fixed the broken clip on my grill, cleaned the fog lights, even the led bulbs had dirt in them



All good, so in the last 2 weeks I have done a full service, (420k km) all oils, filters, rebuilt the diff, replaced the winch, cleaned the drainage pipes so all the rain can drain out instead of into my car! Now it's time to sort swambo's front suspension...

Nothing too exciting.. changed fuel filter. Easy half job. Wowza! I swear I gained a good 1-1.5 ponies by way of the seat dyno.

Extended the transmission, transfer case, and front and rear differential breathers:

Removed the black plastic 'wind-deflector.' I prefer the look without, for now at least.

My first time seeing it without the plastic bits up front, in the six months or so I've had the truck.

Went up to the top of Rowher Flat/Lookout trail the back way from Bouquet reservoir. Stayed at the peak until after sundown. Wheeled out after dark.

Looks so much cleaner!

Giving the 6 dollar disconnects a go. Desert roads are unforgiving and every little bit helps

 

[Kofoed]

It will go from weekend ride to DD for the time being. Washed it, vacuumed it, reduced tire pressure, nothing much. Will be headed to Death Valley soon

Where'd you get those? Do they fit tightly enough to keep the links from 'chattering' when on the road?

Got them at Ace Hardware. Other than driving around the neighborhood I haven't got a good test yet. But the fit feels pretty tight. Not much difference than the bolt it replaced. But there is definitely no return to putting a bolt back in. I'll have to get back to you after a bit on noise and such

 

[SanDiegoCruiser]

Extended by rear/front diff breather lines. Used the OEM filter and mounting bracket to attach the hose under the hood.

Installed new leather from LC Heaven.

Truck look awesome! What size rubber are you running?

 

[nikramos]

Dropped off this morning my LX at @benc for my Dissent bumper. He is an Artist and a Craftsman. Very lucky to meet him. In addition, he is a really nice guy

moved factory turn signals to side marker lights and rewired with 3 conductor harness from a 88-98 chevy gmc tail light plug to run dual filament bulb. also ordered a Stauber key shell and installed factory key into it since old housing broke.. 1999 LX470

 

[gpxl]

Added some weight to the front waiting on a winch and buffer kit to finish it off.

 

[ad27326]

Pretty much the same for me, but mine had around 183k.

Do you have part numbers? Front and rear, same numbers? Thanks
