Plan "B" Alu-Cab Tilting Slide.
Plan "A" was the MSA 4x4 Drop slide, but was unable to source it. I was hoping Ward would put some of the MSA's in his next container.

After 10 +years finally decided to clean the leather. I just used Lexol cleaner and conditioner, still is great shape after all these years (except the normal driver side wear from all the in and out)
Also worked on ordering 2019 Model year rims to upgrade the 2011 look a bit. May have them here in a couple weeks from a forum member here.

Its not the local LC club, just an ordinary rush hour in Riyadh! Including mine 5 LC in a row... and of course all the obligatory white ;-)
Still don't like the 300, in particular the front fenders are ugly when seen from the rear as in the pic.

Took a trip out to Beatty/Rhyolite/Death Valley area. Ran the Beatty Wash Trail, the Rhyolite, Bullfrog and Gold Bar Loop trail and the Titus Canyon Trail in Death Valley. Nice day, temps in the mid 80s.
Found some rare shade for lunch. The pic of the house is the bottle house made from 15,000 bottles (no trees for wood)
Overall a fun day if not dusty day.

Hung up the cleats and got some gearing back.
Man 10mm of offset and nobby tires make a big difference on how she looks.

Installed my brackets for the Keon rear shelf. I reach in my tool draws and pulled out a much longer M6 bolt to manipulate the fittings in, also changed out hardware to black oxide flanged button head machine screws, much better look and locktite them in. Now awaiting my fab shop to finish duplicating the shelf with an aluminum version of the tray. This should cut weight in half adding significantly to the payload.
 
Still struggling to completely remove interior rear quarter trim panels. I’ve pulled out back edge before, but can’t get any further forward, I’m afraid of breaking hidden clips. And guidance? This is a 2020 LC200, no jumper seats.

You have to remove the sill cover of the rear doors, and the little "step" plate next to the rear seats, there is one remaining bolt holding the rear interior trim in place. Also at the trunk you'll have to remove the plastic (hinged) sill cover to remove one screw. I've over time removed the sill covers on all doors and broke at least one of the retainers on them when doing so. There are one or two more screws where the seatbelt is treaded through the panel and with the release catch of the thrid row. The quarter panel itself is mostly clipped in place and will come off easily once you remove the above items.
 
Thank you. Yes I’ve done the back end before to run wiring back there, now have sill plates out but couldn’t fish power feed behind panel. Yes was wanting confirmation that the snap clips release with straight pull out rather than the type you must slide in an unseeable direction to release.

Did you get your black oxide button head screws from McMaster Carr? Just a heads up I recently swapped some exterior screws on my rack with some of their black oxide button head alloy screws and they rusted within two weeks. Pretty bummed it was like 40 screws. I just finished swapping them back out with stainless.

I have spray painted the heads of the stainless screws with success.
Poke them thru a big piece of cardboard and spray away!

I’ve done that trick before

I typically buy from Bel-Metric but you’re right, I have run into that issue before.
 
Still waiting on my front coilovers before I have all of my suspension parts, but my DDI exhaust showed up.

Sweeeeeet. Install it yet? How does it sound?

Also, on their website, they don't list anything for the LC. Is this a Tundra system that fits?

It sounds awesome--I posted a video in the exhaust thread, but I'll throw it in here too. They don't have the LC200 exhaust listed on the website yet; best way is to text or call Keith of DDI directly to discuss options. I sent a number of texts to try to figure everything out and then called him up when I figured out what I wanted to order. He can walk you through options if you tell him what you want. His number is also in the exhaust thread, but it's 760.877.4234
