Many different options but We really like Dinitrol products.
Just did these two Cruisers last week (2001 UZJ100 320k miles & 2017 URJ200 76k miles).
The level of protection and refresh it does to the undercarriage (and engine bay!) is amazing.
What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

This looks awesome and appears to be the “set & forget” product I’m looking for. Is there any concern for servicing anything once the coating is applied? Or it remains malleable enough that your can still remove bolts, parts, etc?
someone's selling some tundra wheels on FB marketplace.......tempted to grab them to move my current Toyo R/T trails on there and put defenders on my heritage wheels..
You ever hit a deer or wildlife at 60 mph?
One thing I don't like about the fluid film is the oily wet look..this looks pretty good.
Added CarPlay via a Hamilton kit and replaced the deteriorated steering wheel with a new one. I didn’t expect the steering wheel to be easier than the head unit removal. I broke a piece of trim around the drivers side air vent when removing that piece so I get to order a new one. But luckily that was the only problem.

Not just the look, but that it stays wet and messy
As close as a one-size-fits-all product I could find.
Case by case scenario of course, but the only thing needed is a good undercarriage wash and degrease and then apply when dry.
EVERYTHING stays as stock / OEM possible. Not oily, not thick, no intrusion, no heavy feel. It is like a ceramic coating that gets applied to the body panels. It dries up in about an hour (We let it rest overnight).
It dries up great and no messy / oily feel afterwards. No transfer while touching it and gives a factory satin look to all components.
Do you coat the KDSS valve? Or do you think marine grease, fluid film, etc are more appropriate for that specific application ?
Thanks for giving some insight; really seems like a worthwhile investment to help keep the LC on the road / fight off the rust.

Made a very important decision today. Picked out the singular CD that will live in the truck and play while on fly fishing trips in remote locations in the West.

I would have gone with a best of Waylon or Willie CD but Merle is close for me. Good choice.
After cutting access holes for the rear upper shock mounts and having rear hydraulic bumps stick inside by an 1.75", I didn't think i would be able to make the inside stock looking. I was wrong.
Market place score. Full front clip from an HE 200.
My understating is the parts came from a HE that was hit from behind.
Side note:
Will be posting my original headlights and grille up for sale in the classified section.

Lexified my buddies LC100 with classier LX570 20" wheels. 
He's trying my spare set of 35x12.5 on for size to see if he wants to step up from 33s. Easy fit with some mild pinch weld clearancing.

Put the 33s from the 200 on the LX. Just need to find a set of center hub caps now. Spacers still on the shelf to see if I want the poke.
I didn’t know about #2
But 33’s? Is there a number 3 or was that the street set for you ‘08 ?
Meanwhile I loaned mine to my brother while his gx is in for maintenance.
This was the street set of tires off the 200 and have been sitting in the garage. No need to swap back to these on that 200 so decided to fill the wheel wells a bit on the LX instead of riding on the stockers.I didn’t know about #2

Seems like it has been quite some time since these fittings have been greased. The rear ds rear spider took 12.5 pumps, the rear ds front spider took 11.5 pumps. I'll do 10 pumps moving forward to avoid cleaning the spider gears.
