Picked up genuine TOYOTA/Koito clear corner lamps. $108.31 shipped from UAE through Amayama Trading Co. Ltd.

I’m hoping I get my rig back from the collision place by Friday. Several new items to install like these lamp assemblies, replacement emblems, my snorkel and Sy-Klone, etc.

Finished installing the Ironman4X4 drawers and wing kit into my LX470.
What I like about them so far:
1. Cost. I believe it was 920 or so delivered to my business address.
2. Drawers are tall and deep. It will hold A LOT of useless junk that I like to carry around.
3. Easy installation. Once you get the crossbars set to right holes it basically just bolts into place.
4. Twist lock handles with separate keyed drawer locks.

What I don't like about them so far:
1. Drawers and wing kit obviously made in different factories as the carpet shade does not match. Easy fix.
2. The wing kit makes it impossible to open the jack/tool location on the left side of the vehicle and also the small compartment on the right side so you can keep anything in those. I may use these as a template and make my own with a piano hinge or something.
3. The goofy Green Man logo stickers on each drawers. Sure you can remove them but they actually have indentations on the drawers for those to go in.






That looks good, i just googled it and got a bunch of different drawers sizes and wings kit is separate, total comes out to a lot more than $920, am i looking at the wrong item? Also any idea how much the whole thing weighs?

1000mm twin drawers, Wing Kit for the 100 series, use code LABORDAY25 at checkout and now it will be less than 900 dollars. No idea on weight but I had no help carrying, installing moving the parts around. I would say less than 100 lbs total.

thanks for the info! do they line up with the rear seats once folded down? wish they list the external dimension for the box, i know the dead space between the wheel arch plastic to plastic is 42", which i made my custom box upon. I'm lazy now and jsut want to buy


Edit, i found the specs. exterior box dimension is 40x40 basically, and weighs 176lbs

This is how far the rear seats recline. When folded down, the seats is almost flush with the top of the drawers. There is about 4 inches of dead space from the back of the seats to the back of the drawers.

Just received new tires 35x12.50r17 and these things dwarf my Nitto Ridge 285/75r18 (35x11.50r18 also on sidewall)

Not seeing this one working out with the more aggressive offset +10mm on 17x8.5 wheels

Do I mount them up and give them a try or play it safe and go with the skinnier 35x10.50r17 ???

Thoughts Please!

(Yes I do wheel this on green and blue trails. No rock crawling on the Rubicon @kreiten)
 
I was today years old when I learned my Land Cruiser has reclining rear seats.

I just went out into the driveway to check. It's like magic!
For more magic you can scoot passenger seat all the way forward, remove front head rest and recline that seat all the way back. Now you have what sort of looks like rear passenger denstist chair setup, reclined with feet up.

JMHO, I wouldn't put 12.5" wide tires on an 8.5" wide wheel on my ride. YMMV.

The Dobinsons wing kits also block the access on either side which has me considering relocating all of the stereo crap in those cavities since I can’t get to them for anything else.
 
You went from an 03 to 04 to 99. For the factory rear locker?
I really do like the idea of the factory rear locker, but I think I really have my design dialed in now and was just looking for a new project.

Actually, I impressed him so much with no wheel spin off road. He had to ditch the ATRAC making gremlin noises all the time. HaHa!!!! It’s that or he wants to duplicate the sickening “BANG” that comes from the front 2 pinion dif.

I look forward to the opportunity to see how simple you will leave things on this build. You are getting a lot of practice @1428Mike ….and I have a welder…..

I run 35x12.50's on 8.5 rims with no probs at all... Guess it depends on what mods ya have and are willing to do to make them work... Mine fit perfectly and don't rub!
 
Starting prep to raptor line my truck, removed roof rack last night. Going to start sanding this evening and patch a fender hole. going with Mesa grey…oh and I ordered an airaid intake, my stock intake muffler thing is falling apart with only one mounting tab in tact.
