    Roof Racks

    2 cents: Have had the FR (v1) installed for 4 years now and it's held up really well. My initial response is that while all the FR accessories really seem to make the rack, so to speak, I've spread out the purchase of accessories over a period of time so that their cost has been really...

    So how are people liking this jack? Any field reports from those of you who have purchased it and used it? Thinking of getting this for a UZJ100 LC. Thoughts?

    Front Runner vs Eezi awn roof rack. Your opinion

    The rims are stockers (16" OEM), tires are 285/75/16D Revos (v1), and the suspension is OME medium w/ Nitrochargers, 863 coils and torsion bars. If these tires finally wear out (had them for around 75k), I'll probably go w/ a 295 in one of the Toyo tires.

    Front Runner vs Eezi awn roof rack. Your opinion

    I have the 1.4M Front Runner Wind Cheetah (v1 vs. Slimline II) on my rig, and haven't seen the Eezi Awn, so can only speak to it. It's primarily used for transporting an axe, a shovel, a propane canister, a small storage box, Rotopax(s), and soon to be bikes (need to install the mounts) and...

    Low-Profile roof boxes?

    How about an ATV box? I found one online and mounted it to a Front Runner Wind Cheetah rack in front of the propane tank. Low profile Diamond plate Powder coated Locking latch Not sure how it could be mounted to the top of your van, but could be an option.

    Thanks for sharing. I really wanted to make the trip this year from City of Rocks, but unfortunately work took precedence. Looks like it was a nice adventure for sure.

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser Today?

    Ya know, that little thing that is attached to the bottom of the frame under the passenger side seat? It's the flux capacitor or AKA vibration dampening mechanism

    New Build - Choosing a Land Cruiser for Family Overlanding

    As mentioned above - search the 100 series section of IH8MUD. Lots of good info. over there. Here's a sample thread on AHC - The Lowdown on the AHC suspension? I think the general consensus is that if you have it, just keep maintaining it if you use it or replace it when it goes out if you don't.

    New Build - Choosing a Land Cruiser for Family Overlanding

    IIRC, more LXs were sold vs. LCs over the course of the 100 series MYs.

    2000, 100 series build

    Did DT ever get those certified for CARB compliance? Over on Mud a few complained that their rigs didn't pass Cali DMV tests (some did, others did not).

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser Today?

    Finally removed the flux capacitor under the PS seat. Expecting 5+ increase in MPGs.
