Brought the cruiser home from getting the gears and lockers installed. 4.30s on stock tires makes this thing spirited. :D

Nitro 4.30s, cryo'd and REM polished.
ARB air lockers front and rear.

Gears are an underrated mod. They really make a positive driving contribution every second behind the wheel.
 
You did gears yourself right? How was the install?

No, I live a couple hours from the west coast Nitro HQ and had them do it.
Install beyond my toolset.
 
Yeah makes sense. I figured you weren't too far from the experts. Wonder how hard this would be.

Thanks. Yeah, the +5 offset is definitely aggressive. Pretty sure I won't be able to fit a 285/75/17 with these wheels
I think there's someone on here running a true 35" tire with a +/-0mm offset, so it can be done. I don't know how much it rubs or where but it looks great!
Here it is, it belongs to @mrtilson3. Siiiiiiick!!!

Tried to do the AHC lift but the passenger side nut seems to be stuck and spins without actually coming loose. Gotta look into it but as it sits the driver side is like .75" higher than the passenger side.

Got tint, Xpel XR Plus 15% on the front two and 70% windshield

Leatherique cleaner through the interior of my LX this afternoon
Conditioner tomorrow afternoon

I had to use a thin vice grip plier on the back side to keep it from spinning. There is a very small notch on the bracket that is supposed to hold the bolt in place but it is very easy to bend.

Yeah I think that's exactly what's happened. I tried to do it early this morning before work because it should have been easy (driver side was like 3 minutes, tops) but the passenger side got me. The only vice grips I could find were a little bit too thick to hold that nut

Love Leatherique! Make sure to use the conditioner(oil) first before the cleaner though 👍

Yep not sure why I typed cleaner. Rejuvenating oil on now and soaking for 24 hours on the driveway before prestine clean tomorrow

Got really great results with it years ago in a 911 so hoping for similar results with the semi-aniline leather in these
 

Nice - looks great. I have a Bravo system on order for my '13 but it should be a few more weeks.

When you have a sec, can you please share measurements for the left and right drawers?

Mainly looking for width - trying to plan what to put in there. Currently looking at a 17" Blackstone griddle but I want to make sure that will fit.

Also - mind sharing what you have in your drawers?

Thanks,
Mike
 
Installed the Kaon shelf this morning...excellent fit and finish! Installed in less than an hour and as others have commented before, the most difficult part was getting those handle clip covers off.

I used Toyota pads too. DBA is what came off. So far it feels better but that may also be some of the air that got purged.
