I've had a 3rz for a few years and it has never failed me. The 5 speed and the good use of the transfer case help lots. I've never really needed any more than that, even though it would be nice to have a V6. The 3rz and the 2tr four bangers are pretty capable considering their size and theyre...

Nope, sorry, simple reliable Yaesu 2900R. No remote head (although I would've loved that feature). My 12V chargers are about 6in from my shifter and my radio is on the side of the shifter console. They're seriously close by and no problem so far.

That's weird, I have two of those Griffin dual-usb chargers, they are both within 12in of my radio and I get zero noise when using them. The only noise I get on my vehicles is from the Rigid Industries Duallys, significant noise at that, and they're at least six feet away from the radio. I have...

Ive had my 62st basically since they came out. I've used it for everything but mostly use it on my truck during trips. For reference, I've used it for hiking, paragliding, boating, biking, you name it. I have an underground parking, and the thing does get a signal there. Always accurate, and...

No pics but I mount a handheld GPS (Garmin 62s) using a suction cup mount, I just stick it to the windshield and remove it when not in used. On my previous car I had no cupholders so I used RAM's swivelled cup holders using the same suction cupo on the windshield. I also had a 1" ball drilled...

Im glad you have no rf interference on your radios, I get serious rf interference on the VHF when I turn my dually's on. I dont really use am/fm radio so i dont really care much for that aspect.

You know, this is true for all cruisers. My dad had a few 80 cruisers over the years, including a few 80s. I didn't realize they had such a particular smell until I got into a friend of mine's 80 which smelled exactly the same. My dad passed 9 years ago, I nearly broke into tears when I first...

You know, a company here sells a light that is a GE landing light sealed beam on a casing that is pretty similar to KC daylighters made of plastic. These are 100W halogen lights. They're extremely cheap, have an awesome pattern and are really bright.

Diesel my friend. no carb here.. I've never seen a 1HZ up close, so my knowledge is very limited. I have seen a bunch of threads and information on turbocharging this engine, though, a google search will show a buch of results. I guess the only help I can provide here is: yes, it has been...

Nice cruiser!! I'm a fellow 90 owner as well, currently have a RZJ90 but i used to have a VZJ95. I didnt know these came with a D4D diesel, I thought they only had the 1kz. What are your future plans?? More interior shots!

My guess would be he's a foreigner working for a big organization in some high-risk country. They're not uncommon in such countries, for example here in Venezuela and Colombia. Not only Land Cruisers, but Toyotas in general.. I had an armored 90 series, she was armored for handgun calibers up...

While Squatchout raises a valid and important point, amber or yellow lighting is not only useful in sleet or snow, where LEDs would not only be counter productive in their white versions but will also end up covered in snow and ice because they dont run warm enough. Amber lighting helps cut...

The cannons are priced at ~400$ per set? or is that price per light. If it is per set, it is not only great performancewise, but it has an incredible price as well! Excellent setup, Cheers, Lui

I've had great experiences running KC lights. I've used Daylighters and Rally 800 in spot beams. I use them for high speed driving on lonely dark roads. Paired to a good set of headlight bulbs I could drive safely. Recently I modified my front bar and added fog lights, which were then changed...

I've only used quickfists for holding my lights inside the cab of my truck, but reading this thread I just might hang a shovel up on the roof rack using these things....

Tires, lift are mandatory, but nothing too big, 2" and some skinny 32's would look awesome. I agree with everyone else, but instead of keeping it as stock as possible, I say keep it as stock or factory looking as possible. Build it, but make the accesories look like they were built with the...

I've witnessed a couple of cable breaks. While they thankfully didnt end in injury, the vehicles were pretty damaged by the broken cable. Scary stuff. Mind you, these were no 30 year old cables, 10 at most. I havent seen a synthetic line break yet because the folks I know who run them do take...

While you can add more crossbars for more stable load carrying, it will still have a wide gap between the beams, it wont compare to a platform. It will also add a bunch of weight, which defeats the purpose of the design. This off course depends on the material its made out of, the ones ive seen...

while I hope we never get to use the Maglite in "self defense", it might work, although I agree its sketchy at best and if something starts on the wrong foot then its hard to end in the right foot anyway... However, how about impact against something else? perhaps hammering, breaking glass, or...

There are a few venezuelan manufacturers doing a very similar design. That sort of roof rack has been trending among 4x4 owners that dont carry anything other than a RTT, and there's always the people who buy it just for looks, as they have a better appearance than regular roof racks. The one...
