Rebuilt driver and passenger front door lock actuators. Thanks to everyone on here it only cost me $20 instead of $500+. Just removed the actuator assembly, carefully popped it open, removed the motor and gear, put the gear on the new motor and reassemble. Took me about 3 hours total to do both of them. Took my time double checking everything as I went.

Failed Door Lock Actuator R&R
The front left (Driver's) door lock actuator in my 2013 decided to give up the ghost at 52,435 miles. I made a dealer trip yesterday to pick up the part since manually locking/unlocking the door was becoming annoying. Got the dealer (Groove Toyota) to beat the internet prices and sell the part...

locked out but I have the keys!! - Root cause discovered!
Ok this is a strange one caused by multiple unlucky circumstances. My driver door actuator has been intermittent lately. I replaced it in 2018 but it appears to be failing again. To be honest I don't recall ever testing the mechanical key when I replaced actuator motor - I wish I did! Truck is...

Door Actuator Lock
Fried at 100k miles..... Left side mirror and the lock were the only 2 issues in 100k miles and 9 years of ownership ... Love my LC !!!

Winterize time. Put her on a diet and lifted 200 lbs off her top. Gave her a good detail and winter wax. Surprisingly, this 2013 LC Salsa Red paint holds up really well.
58694-76010, 58698-76010. 4 of each.

Anyone interested in a low profile front recovery bracket?
6061-T6
Used with regular or soft shackle.
Rated at 10k Lbs with 2x saftey factor.
Used for recovery and tie down.
JIS 10.9 bolts and washers.
If I get 10 orders I can do ~$135 shipped to the lower 48. This is for 2 brackets and hardware.

Awesome, thank you
It is a Gobi-X rear bumper, they are made in South Africa. As such, it is made for the South African/European spec 200 series which doesn't have the integrated rear factory tow hitch. I wasn't going to completely get rid of my stock hitch, so I cut a massive hole in the Gobi-X bumper and did some mild modifications to my hitch to get it to fit. I now have two hitches.
On top of each spare is a American Adventure Lab Spare Tire Platform. I took about 4" off of the inside of each so I could run them both without hitting each other and it gives me a 78" x 24" bed on top of my spares. Realistically, I can't run a lot of weight up there, but I can have enough up there to be really useful. I carry my RV3 over both, a chemical toilet on one, and my camping chairs on the other. I lash the RV3 down so that I only need to remove one lash on the opposite side and I can still open my wheel carrier if I need to get back there before we make it to camp.

I would be interested. With the IronMan bumper there is no front recovery points and something like this would fix that problem.

I'll start getting these made, It will take a week or two. You might need longer mounting bolts as the IronMan bumper looks like it mounts to the factory recovery point locations. Can you measure how thick the material is in those locations?

It does mount there and is 1/8" thick.
how thick are these going to be? thanks

Thanks, increase in bolt length probably not necessary, but can send with 5mm longer bolts.

Overall width is 30mm. Skinny enough for a 7/8" bow shackle which has a 31.75mm (1.25") opening. I recommend soft shackles though.
Sounds good. I would like a set when available. I have a bumper with 3/16" mounting plate and a 1/4" aluminum skid so will probably need longer bolts. What soft shackles do you use?

Yankum rope\Bubba rope is what I have. I'm sure there are some cheaper ones that will be fine.
2010 LX570 124k miles. Did transmission flush (full 14 quart flush) through transmission cooling line. Absolutely amazed at the outcome. Simply did as a PM, as I did not think I was having any shifting problems. Apparently, very slowly over time my shifting had become a tiny bit rough. Post-flush it is amazingly smooth, better than I ever remember it being. If you're on the fence about this PM...DO IT!

Back on the road. New upper and lower control arms. Had cam tabs cut out, new cam tab gussets in. Alignment. Gonna need some LCDC dates now, Big Booty Judy is ready to rock.
Finalize my bumper and grill after a long process. Hard to make a LC Rhino 4x4 fit on a 200 series LX, but I think I am finally done
It's safe to say you did an amazing job. Victory rear?
