I installed some lighting in the rear and a dome light on the roll bar. It really makes a difference when you have to dig for a tool in the dark!
What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

X2. Both my kids (and my wife) will be watching these. There are some wonderful tips in those videos, stuff that I haven't seen or thought of.
I like how they (Australians) already had a 'tread lightly' approach even back then.
Details???
ARB and Warn Winch
This is what I added recently. Have not had a chance to use it yet but will. I originally had the XD9000i but once installed it started leaking oil, when Warn was contacted they said the XD9000 works better in the ARB because of they way it is mounted, no big. I thought I would put that out there is case anyone else was thinking about installing the same.
Second thing, has anyone heard of this site? Land Cruiser Accessories - Aluminum Replacement Bodies & Accessories for Land Cruisers, Jeeps & Samurai's
They have a drop box I was thinking about getting, but wanted some feedback first.

Replaced my brake booster and master cylinder. drums all the way around. Adjusted brakes and bled system now stops very well with just light pedal.
..Just now i got my copy from the Magazine,before goes to stores...
If yours is too far advanced (ccw) you need to retard it by turning it cw. Turn it a little bit at a time, tighten it back down and try starting it. If it's still sluggish, go a little more.
Awesome videos, thanks for sharing!

New thermostat, fresh coolant. And I found a small leak at the top of the radiator on the seal..... Looks like a new one will be added to the list of other parts I need to get. (looks like it had been patched before so I'm not going to try another time)
Wow cool videos! Thanks!
Downloaded both of them. Thanks!

Chicago,
What Light did you get? I clicked on the link, and it just goes to the main page. There's like 10,000 different lights there! A little overwhelming
I think these would be good for rock lights too!
Thanks!

Thanks man!!
Www.ecolightled.com is where I got those light strips from. They are the ultra bright strips, weather resistant, 4 ft strip. Espressomon got some and told me about em. 120* light arc... They are effing BRIGHT!! I'm gonna add a 2 ft strip off the back of the cage too, to illuminate the cargo/ tailgate.
Really neat and easy lil system. All you have to do is peel the backing and stick em up and wire em.
I'm not affiliated w/ the co. Just a great product!! I'm very impressed w/ it!!
Installed P/S pump, new alternator, thermostat, radiator hoses, belts, fuel lines, intake and headers plus the carb.
Also swopped out leaf packs, and dropped a crap ton of stuff to the sand blaster.
Oh and broke the windshield when trying to remove it.... in the living room.

whilst painting my top and continuing to put her back together, I found contact info. and am now talking with the PPO and have some cool videos of her from 5 years ago!
Installed the OME front springs I had purchased from Cruiser Outfitters a few weeks back. Now I have matching springs front and rear instead of 4" lift in front and 2" lift in back. Also adjusted the toe-in to reduce the tendency to wander. I think I need to put some caster correction shims in to make it perfect. The 4" lift springs had them built in, the OMEs do not. It looks like I'll be making a trip to the local NAPA.
