What have you done to your 200 Series this week? (12 Viewers)

Yep most people run too much air IMO. Attached is more tire pressure info than you ever wanted to know.

I was looking for some light reading material for this long weekend while on the beach. Thanks!

Yes not for you....better line selection maybe

Ya...Sometimes the best line only means hit your bumper a little less.

On the other hand...it’s really my REAR bumper that takes the most beating...

Unacceptable maybe to some given there needs not to many Kangaroo in Germany or things to hit on the 300' dunes of Nambi desert. . Im in the totally acceptable group as my 100 series 100% aluminum bumper would fall into the same category but it looks fantastic.

Sorta like the BudBuilt skid offerings. Gotta differentiate between “overlanding” and “rock crawling.” The XO 200 has an aluminum bumper which seems to do alright given their usage. Sports Mobile uses Aluminess bumpers on their rigs. Weight savings for those not trying to storm the castle but want an improvement over Tupperware it’s probably worth it...

Same website results after inputting 2008 and 2011 Land Cruiser, what did I do wrong?

Unfortunately, we do not currently manufacture tires fitting this vehicle's Original Equipment specifications. However, we may have an approved alternative and would be glad to help you find one.

I bet it’s because it’s not the stock factory tire, but rather the TRD/Toyota recommended accessory tire...

So if one DOES go with a LT285/75/17 E rated KO2 (80psi max), I think it's ~34" diam., and is a "stockish" 200 with a OME lift, and front/rear bullbars, would 45-50psi be too high of a pressure for daily driving?

I have the same tire. Master @gaijin says 37psi for factory GWVR.

If you're over GVWR then you'd need to run a higher pressure. Correct pressure after a Lovell's 500kg GVM upgrade is 33psi for 285/65R17 tires according to Lovell's. They don't list other tire sizes and pressures, so I can't say for that size, but I run 45psi when I'm towing my trailer with ~800# TW

@linuxgod is spot on - The Recommended Cold Tire Inflation Pressure for the LT285/75R17E tires on your LC200 is 37psi F/R. That's good for everything up to the GVWR of 7385LB.

HTH

Lifted the 200 this last week with the OME 2” lift. Had some problems with the 10 year old screws. Had to use a whole bunch of wd40 and pry bars but got it done. Unfortunately on the front right we over extended the axle and pulled the balls out of the bearings. We got it back in thinking everything was fine but when we tried to drive it there was a big crunch. So we had to take out the axle smooth out a couple of nicks and repack it. And the new boot kit took a week to come in. Finally got everything in last night and got the alignment done this morning. Everything is a ok so far. Lesson learned at least now I learned go to take the axle off for when we go wheeling

Ordered 18” Tundra rims for some studded Nokian Hakkepellita snow tires.

I bought a 2016 LX, did an AHC lift, and put 33s on it. Driveway crawler shot until this weekend..

Bought all of the stuff I wanted for the build up front. BFGs, Tough Dog lift, TJM front, Slee sliders, and ARB rear. The seat covers are still in the mail. I am excited to get it how I want it and drive it!View attachment 1774135

I got the TJM, Slee, BFGs, and Tough Dog lift installed! Looks awesome and drives great. I got the 6 ply BFGs - super quiet ride.

Yep, yours was the inspiration for mine. Gives the truck a whole new look.
