Drinking and playing with power tools. Apparently the 100 is an Overlund vehicle, so I started building a tactical Overlund drawer system. Finished framing it today, need to build the drawers tomorrow.

Replacing UCA with SPC's
Cleared a neighbors driveway after a tree fell across it on Thanksgiving with my dad. Used Blue Ridge Overland Gear tool bag as a dampener. My good deed for the day.
Ran about a 12 oz of Marvel Mystery Oil when I had half tank of gas and the P0171 code went away!
Not sure how long that'll last tho
Order a set for my LC after seeing his post. They were just delivered.
I have had the catalytic converter sheild resonating noise for a few months now. I installed a 4.25" hose clamp on each cat that reduced the noise but didn't fix it completely.
Today I paid $20 to have the shields tack welded in place. Instantly quiet and smooth!
I was warned that these welds mayn't last for too long. If this comes back, Should I cut off shields and leave the cats free-balling or should I replace them?

We bought new tires for our 2006 Land cruiser VXR V8.
Stock size 275/65/17 Cooper Discoverer AT3s.
as you can clearly see, I didn’t take good pictures. I might get some when we go camping.

Lifted, then protected.

Went and played in the snow to get a Christmas tree. Not the best weather, but it made things more exciting.
The wind was gusting bad and blowing trees over. This one fell blocking the road right as we got there. Luckily enough my small saw wasn't ready to go so I took my big saw. It made short work of that big tree.

Installed rack bushings. It was a pain with the rack on and tie rods installed. A mix of ratchet straps, all threads with nuts and washers, lubed up bushings, and the stock hardware they went in. Took a couple hours.
Also fixed tilt motor. The ribbon cable had come out a bit. Pressed it back in and new tape to hold everything tight and my tilt works again.
Was about to install my new AHC springs and spacers, but 35 degree rain making me think I'll wait.

Is that proper trail etiquette to cut the tree into pieces and remove it? We had a fallen tree like that one time but we had no chain saw, or a chopping axe for that matter, we just tied it to the front of my truck and pulled it to where it doesn't block the path anymore.
If you're able to, sure thing. It helps everyone else behind you before rangers can get to it. Once fallen, there's no sort of Flora protection that I'm aware of. I can't imagine any rangers are going to have a problem with a citizen helping out.
Then again, Uncle Sam is getting old and kooky so maybe I'm wrong

I believe that it is. That was a good size tree and moving it would have taken a lot of time if possible. Not a lot of traction in that wet snow on mud.
At that point etiquette didn't mater. Law made no difference either. The safety of my family was more important. The wind wasn't letting up any time soon and there were beetle killed trees falling all over. The branches falling off the trees were enough to do a lot of damage.
Overlanded so f'in hard to the grocery store get bread & milk with all the other idiots in preparation for the coming snow. Put my DIY storage drawers to the test. Full walk-around to be up on YouTube later. #likeandsubscibe. Can't wait to whip up a delicious bowl of milk bread.

First I've heard of this, did you access through the little side doors or have to remove the wheel or column trim?
I removed the trim around the wheel. I pulled the motor since it wasn't spinning at all and checked the ZIF connector, since the black tape holding it down was a little torn. A little push on the connector and the motor started spinning again. I wrapped it in fresh Tesa tape to keep the connector tight and reinstalled and it tilts well again. All this after I ordered a new motor and then decided to test my old one first.
