Working on a stealth install of @MongooseGA 's excellent tailgate storage kit! I'm re-using my original factory tailgate carpet to keep as OEM of a look as possible.

The storage doors will get the carpet that I cut out here glued (3M Super 77) on top of them & the latches will get installed through the carpet. The cheap hole punch kit from Harbor Freight worked awesome for punching out the holes for the fasteners.

Drivers side also has a cutout for a 3D printed cup holder insert, passanger side has my Lumberjack Engineering beard logo cutout in it. Super excited to finish this up soon!

This is very cool and the first I've seen of retaining the factory carpet. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out! I kept my carpet and may decide to copy this idea on my own truck. Maybe one day my truck will get a production version of this kit :rofl:

For anyone interested in this kit, I'll have 12 of these kits ready to go by Thursday and will be posting the website live to sell them.
 
Figured out what front bumper I’m getting….

ARB looks with better clearance/without the front porch effect

This looks great! I don't suspect it will clear the LX grills though.




I rolled 350k on mine last week. Did standard oil change, greased drive shafts and trailing arms, had the tires rotated, and gave her a bath.

TCC said they’ll have an LX specific which will “follow shortly”.

Longrange America is the US distributor.

Any ideas on pricing? I'm in Northern VA too if we can get a group buy going i'll be in for one. I love the stubby design, the ARB sticks out too much, this one looks sorta like a dissent / TJM hybrid.
Not cheap unfortunately. I did preorder one so would be down for splitting shipping if they’re willing to do that. Long range said they wouldn’t have a ton of them at first so I’m guessing they wouldn’t do a group buy at this point.

 
hhmm, $500 more expensive than Dissent and looks very much like a Dissent copy, doesn't it?!? Dissent peaks out slightly more, but that's more or less imo.
 
Very bummed. Dropped her off to get a quick service before a buyer is flying out from NM to pick her up tomorrow. Purchased an 08’ Sequoia Limited due to the growing family. I could barely manage 3 car seats in the 2nd row and there’s a fourth on the way so it was time to upsize and unfortunately can’t have my cake and it too.

It’s nowhere near time but I’ve already been looking at “the next” LC. Maybe another 100 in the future, maybe an 80 or even 200. But I’ll be back, going to try and build this tree thing out a bit and see where it goes, I am digging the 5.7 so far.

Time for a new/used subaru...don't be shy 😁
 
Hmmmm, not quite done there
:rofl:
Bahahhah, that's funny, I just noticed that. Don't worry, that wire got connected to the proper place. 🤣
 
First post here. Picked her up a few weeks ago. Wasn’t even actively looking for a 100 but I saw it pop up on marketplace and 24 hours later it was in my driveway. Green over tan spec hit me right in the heart.

It was a bit beat up cosmetically but was mechanically sound with minimal rust. Can’t think of a better winter daily for the price.

Parts are slowly starting to roll in. Got new OEM headlights, clear corners, grille, and bulbs from Daniel Stern installed today.

Added some old school styling kc hilite but with led. Lmk what you guys think. It looked a lot cooler in my head. Not sure how I feel about it now that it is installed.

Used a shallow strut and a 2 hole L bracket to mount it. The strut is bolted behind front part of the frame.

First mod done in getting my 2000 LC ready for my +11K miles trip to the Arctic circle (Tuktoyaktuk) and Alaska with my teenage daughter this summer. I bought the ComeUp Seal Slim 9.5rs winch and the Trail-Tailor hidden winch mount. The hardest part was finding a place for the control box without modifying the wires or relocating it too far from the winch. In the end it worked out perfect. Kept the wires intact and have easy access to the disengage lever and the top of the control box from the top.

That looks sweet. When I installed my winch it was a headache trying to relocate and rewire everything. I'm still in the process of this and at this point, I'm 3d printing a smaller low-profile control box to fit between the headlight and the air intake box.
