I've heard great things about Bohannan Four Wheel Drive in Bentonville
I have heard his name come up in some earlier conversations but he is hard to get a hold of. I’ll try to stop by his shop later today and get a quote.
 
Fricken LASER BEAMS!!!!

Much respect for your "spaceship-level" lighting setup! I just got some laser beams myself (slightly different setup), will post some pictures after this weekend as I'll be testing them on pitch black country roads.

Cheers!
 
Whoa!! What is that sorcery?
Lol they are the new hotness, LED lasers. I got these two pods: 2021 Lediyte 3 Inch Led Laser Driving Lights Fog Light Pods Light 10w 12w For Cars - Buy 3 " Pods Light,Light For Cars,Laser Driving Lights Fog Light Product on Alibaba.com - https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/2021-Lediyte-3-Inch-Led-Laser_1600193837518.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.0.0.399c3821iYRf0o

They are similar to the Baja Designs ones (https://amzn.to/3fg5Lb8) but cheaper. They really are crazy and go super far. I am curious to see if they are useful in snow or not. The 3rd photo I have these projector LEDs (https://amzn.to/2QGypIf) which are far more useful as brights, the lasers are more of a novelty. It's going to take me some time to dial them in also, because you have to aim them like a P-51 and figure out what convergence is best and they have a focus ring to adjust the beam as well.

They are not small!
 
Bug shield is an OMAC Dark Bug Shield Hood Deflector Guard Bonnet Protector for Lexus LX470 1998-2007 × 1 -- Note the instructions are in Cyrillic I followed the pictures.


Wellvisors.

do you get wind noise from your vent visors? I have a set, different brand but now I'm getting wind noise on the driver side Less on passenger.



I thought maybe I'll try a set that actually went into the window channel, instead of on the outside and see if that would cut down on the noise

Not from the visors. I think because they sit of the outside of the window keeps the noise down.

Now I do get a lot of noise on the passenger side from a bum windshield installation that happened before I bought the LX.

Be sure to understand how the little black tabs work before installation and that the rears are left and right because of the smaller rear door window.
 
Past week or so—installed airlift bags and lubed front axle spindles.

And put new front axle caps on, which set me back like $3. Soooo shiny.

My novella on the airbag install is here, if anyone wants further info:

I called DT today... They are scheduled to start the 561 production run on April 5th. woot woot.
There’s a DT group buy in one of the Facebook groups for the headers and/or exhaust system. Not sure about delivery estimates though



Well I guess the group is private so the link won’t work, but if you pm me I can send you a link to the signup sheet

I already ordered mine via Summit a few weeks ago... same price.

Thanks for the information.

hmm. I’m looking to buy headers. I’ll request to join. Thanks
 
I ordered the front and middle (gear?) skid plates from ASFIR. Got the front on with very few issues. The middle is a different story. Mostly because of my sliders. I can not for the life of me get the driver side U bolt bent enough to get it over the gear plate cross beam support member thingy and still fit into the slider. For some reason I was able to get the passenger side, but I could not for the life of me replicate it. Anyone have suggestions or know where I can get the same U bolts that are just a taaaaad wider?

rocking the one slider look for now. Forgot how high it looks without sliders and running boards

That's a bummer.

The only place I can think of is McMaster-Carr.


BTW what lights are you running under the truck?

Ah, good call. Thanks.
And I actually bought them from a user on here. @screendoor. Not sure if he’s still on here or still makes them, but it’s just a flexible strip of leds that he connected to an oem style plug. Really nice and easy.
 
Not what I've done, more like what I'm about to do.

Waiting on shocks from Icon - been told there's ~10-16 week lead time.

Painful having all this sit in the garage without being able to put it on! AHC is coming out, so I'm in a holding pattern until the shocks arrive.

Slee heavy springs - good detail of specs on their website.
 
Finished up install of RedArc BCDC1225D, awaiting Anderson SB50 amp connector to connect solar panel! Oh yeah, got a 200W solar blanket ready to go

Took me way too long and a sawzall was the answer in the end but I replaced the right rear shock!!! Now onto the other side. :p I used a very long bendy blade to slide in from the wheel well and cut that damn rusty nut to bits. That has to be some kind of 100 series owner right of passage. Hahahaha
