What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

[60 40]

no leaks.

This is a big thing congratulations!

I'm also in the no leaks phase, it's such a milestone but I haven't diven it enough to give it a chance. 14,000 miles is plenty of time for anything that's going to leak to start leaking.

I was leak free at one time … it lasted about lol over a few thousand miles

MrT intended them to leak … its rust prevention

I’m not saying it was always like this. After a few thousand miles I noticed the transfer case leaking a reddish brown oil out of the vent. Then the 4L60e was needing servicing.
I drained about 10 gallons (kidding) out of the T case and after re-reading the Advance Adapters literature figured out the transmission was transferring fluid to the T case. Just like the old days with the 3 speed manual. AA even goes so far as to say if this happens just run ATF in the transfer case. The damn thing is loud already. If that happens again I’ll be hitting up Georg or CruiserMatt for a 5 speed and split case.
Resealing the T case seems to have worked for now.
I was expecting leaks from the power steering or transmission cooler lines. Nothing. Yet.

Too much? Found it for $10…has CarPlay and tells me how fast I’m going when using Waze. My speedometer is very close to being accurate. This also bluetooths to my JBL Charge 5 for music.

Also ran a fuel return to try to alleviate some warm engine no-start issues.

Well, that’s a better solution than my “temporary” one.

I spent more hours than I care to admit running wires for a subwoofer (a custom enclosure that fits behind the driver seat purchased from another member here), 2 amplifiers, just for 2 2.25” speakers.
