Sweet Radiator as well!
I have always been a sucker for aluminum radiators and those welds… some companies build out custom with extra rows snuck in. Any car and I always want them!
 
I'm more impressed with the Toyota Screwdrivers than the Mishimoto radiator. :rofl:



Mix of rebranded Vessel Megadora 900/930 JIS/flat heads and the through tang versions. Toyota branding cool, but maybe cheaper without it.
 
@Jczajka I did receive a Vessel cordless screwdriver with JIS bit as a Christmas gift!

Installed a gas tank and skid plate into my 2005 LC I got it from a southern breaker off a Lexus. Had to swap my old fuel pump and modify the Lexus ring for the LC pump. I also had to swap the cut off valve to have it run towards the rear of the truck. After sitting for a year and half she's back on the road, and to think my mechanic almost talked me into letting her go because the tank rusted through. Now to locate a clean upper rear hatch.
 
Just some regular washers is all I used. The stock bolts that go in that location are a lot longer than they need to be are are long enough to safely accommodate the washers I added. Going to take it on a 40 mile drive later today and I'll see if what I added was enough or if I need one or two more to be ideal.
I'm thinking about getting these. What do you think about the seat jackers? Do you recommend?

I whole heartedly recommend seat jackers from @DesertDoesIt . They are the original designers and have been copied by some other unscrupulous sellers. Mine have been on for over a year and have provided big improvement in comfort.

You havnt noticed too much impact on headroom? I am 6'2" and definitely get some back pain when driving. I just deal with it and need to get in better shape but might try these out.

I only have them on the front feet of the driver's seat - so they just jack up the front edge and give me a little more support on the thighs. They don't take away any headroom space but I am only 5' 9" with disproportionately large torso so I can't tell you how it would feel for a 6' 2" driver.

@FamilyCamper I don't have the jackers in my 100 but I do have them in my 200 and have noticed some reduced headroom.

@FamilyCamper Headroom is certainly reduced. You might try unbolting the front of the seats and

Thanks for the comment, appreciate it

6'3" here, I'm not touching the ceiling but I definitely got closer to it. The trade-off with seat jackers is worth it for long drives if you're having back pains. 10/10 would recommend.
 
Installed all new front differential bushings and greased driveshafts (too little?)...The Infamous Clunk remains.
