Put in a 50qt ARB fridge/freezer to replace the damned 54qt cheapass Igloo we were using...

also my strategically located camera worked well to see over the box rather than have me look at the back of the box when reversing when it was mounted to the plate area

Gorgeous. I almost bought a RSP TT '97 a few years ago but couldn't part with that much money for a toy. They are incredible machines though, you're a smart man for hanging on to such a timeless machine. If you EVER think about selling it, please let me know.
 
Helped a local cruiser work on his ride. I have a movie of us removing the crank shaft bolt by cranking the engine but cant upload it.

A wheel weight on the road borked a perfectly good LTX M/S2. Unrepairable. Replaced the 20" Momo wheels with nearly new Tundra 18" wheels and tires.

Bridgestone Dueler HT tires 275 65 18 with <1000 miles. Don't love the tires, they're ok for now but the wheels look good. Front caps will need surgery to fit.

A friend of mine installed a aux port for me and a ipod/iphone connection in the glove box. I didn't want to change out the stock radio as I don't really want the nav or anything I would gain from a double din upgrade. Just wanted to be able to listen to Pandora or itunes. Simple procedure and I am upgraded!

The beauty is those OEM tires only last about 30k. So you don't have to wait to long to get what you want. We have the same set on our Sequoia and they are almost done at 31,000. Changing them before winter.

Here is how the front cap looks once modified to fit around the grease cap.

After drilling a center pilot hole, this bit let me make the hole for the grease cap just big enough. I also had to grind off a little on the inboard side of two of the rounded areas (the part that goes around the lug). There was a little interference from two of the hub cover nuts. The second cap will take me much less time to mod, maybe 5-10 minutes.

Changed out my rear lower and upper control arms this week. I can't say that I miss the squeeks. The bushings were cracked and dried...particularly the uppers.
 
Brakes, front and rear rotors and pads along with bearings for the front. Brake parts are all Bosch thanks to a friend and the bearing kit was bought through a forum member. No more shimmying while braking. I've also put on new tires. Michelin LTX AT's in 275/65/18. I'm on pavement too often and my off road time is rather beginner-ish.
