I reupholstered my driver's seat pan. In the process I learned the previous owner once again stripped out the seat arm rest bolt, causing me great time spent in modifying a fix with tap and die kit, drilling, and fitting new bolt. The 2000 LC100 does not have a leather seat arm rest cover that you can turn inside out, so I'll later be ordering a new one.
The seat pan leather replacement is phenomenal. I got if from Wolfmans Auto and Cycle Seats. The owner does a how to video on Youtube, and even sells you the hog ring pliers you will need to do the job. I am thrilled with the customer support and product from this small business. A+++ Excellent.

I need to replace the screws for the mini plate for oil drain plug, what size are they? Can I get them from HomeDepot?
around here we call that a "rear stinger"
I removed the loose rust underneath and applied Fluid Film. For rust removal, I used an angle grinder with a wire wheel, a surface reconditioning tool, and a wire brush. The undercarriage is not pretty, but, fortunately, the frame is solid everywhere. For the Fluid Film application, I went with a gallon can and a rust proofing gun that connects to a compressor. Everything went smoothly. Man, that was a dirty job!
I had the similar thing happen to my truck a few months ago. I had no signs of my outside pad, just gone!

I'm thinking about these as well, mine have frayed webbing. (One large, annoying fray each that jeopardizes the whole deal, right at a hole)
How was install?

The install is very easy taking about 10 minutes per side. They use the OEM holes.
Started my AHC delete. Did front and rear shocks, springs, and have torsion bar to do next (UPS split my shipment so had to work with what I got first). I did the iron man 2” stage 1. I did it myself so far with help from my wife with a few things. Forum was a great help especially with my rusted New England Bolts. I did the cut inside to access the rear shock nuts, after spending 4 hours trying to get them off. Had trouble reconnecting my Panhard bar so had to use a ratchet strap to pull it together attaching some pics of the work. I plan to do the torsion bars tomorrow then go to the alignment stand. In the near future gonna do a diff drop and the panhard bar drop. Wondering though if I should add an adjustable bar when I do the drop. Thanks for all the help on this forum. It’s been golden.
Finally replaced the catalytic converters after owning this nearly two years. Used four weld-in Magnaflow units
($700 with a 10% discount) and the shop cut the old units out leaving the bolt flanges connected so the new ones can be removed if ever needed. only cost $300 in labor. FINALLY NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS!
We also celebrated our anniversary with a trip to Hurricane Creek, in western NC. Posting this from the cabin outside Brevard. I was very impressed with how this rig handled the (moderate) rock obstacles. One spot was precarious because there was only one usable line and getting it wrong meant going sideways down a ravine. But it was good to help teach my wife to be a good spotter. She's just getting into off roading with me, and this is our retirement hobby together.

And if I understand correctly , I need two per side , correct ?
I’ve been battling CEL for two years now , I’m going to finally give in and replace the cats .
Traded a Rigd UltraSwing for a 1up rack. I lost money technically but I need to carry 2 bikes more than I need 2 spares. Plus I never fell in love the with swing the way I thought.
Also cleaned up the center console and installed a shift indicator plate from CruiserDM.
Bought this rig about 3 weeks ago and have been loving getting it buttoned up the way I want.

Got my engine cover to stop rattling by putting some heat reflecting foam underneath it. Was about to just throw the cover away but I like the look.
Now I need to figure out why air isn't blowing out in the driver footwell...and figure out why my 2nd start button sticks even though I just cleaned it...and figure out why my CDL light doesn't work

Mine wasn't blowing out of the driver's side footwell either until I took a closer look. The carpet was partially blocking the vent so it was an easy fix thankfully.
That’s exactly the part number I used. The mom & pop exhaust shop (literally a husband wife operation) tried telling me that I only needed one per side until I showed them the fully fabbed part that just bolts in for over $900 per side. Then she said that their tech data was probably wrong, it was nice to have the variable steering gear ratio back. It always bugged me that I had it whenever I reset the codes and it would go away as soon as they repopulated in the system.Did you use this one ?
