Thanks for the pics, I’m looking at Dobinsons. Would you describe the result as level or slight reverse rake? It’s hard to tell without a straight on side pic, but some pics look like slight reverse rake.

I have 285/75/17 open country III tires with a +25 offset 8.5” wheel on mine. I can take pictures if you want, it comes very close to the bottom at full turn but doesn’t rub. I bet it would rub at the top at full compression, but haven’t tested. I’m putting a 2.5” lift on it so not worried in my...

I recommend getting your tires balanced/checked with a road force balancer if you haven't already.

Unfortunately this seems like trend with them, had their rocksliders for three weeks before they put out install info. Wouldn’t have been an issue except they had rivet nuts that needed drill outs, so I needed instructions.

CA Tuned has a kit, here's the install video:

Oh that's right, ViAir, my mistake.

This guy has some notes and pics for his build about installing and wiring an ARB compressor under the hood: https://www.landcruiserforum.com/threads/eod-guys-ride.1314/post-21199

Does yours look like this, with the ring on the lens cover? I thought it was just the light projection highlighting the scuffs on the outside cover.

Do you mean this little dot in the center of the headlight cover? I have on both sides, looks like a dimple from the plastic mold?

I was surprised too, but I have a 1958 and indeed the black plastic trim on the fenders is flush, where the other trims it sticks out a bit (1/2in ?). I parked next to an LC trim in town and compared. Plus someone on the IH8MUD posted the upper trim part numbers, but you’d have to search that...

Did you buy the ones for 2020-2023, or the 2024+ ? I see the 2024+ are now sold out.

Would you mind posting a pic of the side straight on like in the pic below? The pic below is from the Westcott install video, but I've seen other LCs with this lift that ended up with reverse rake.

Are you braking when it makes the sound? If so, there a couple threads already going. If not, that would be interesting. https://www.landcruiserforum.com/threads/anyones-brakes-squealing-when-you-reverse.1666 https://www.landcruiserforum.com/threads/brakes-squeal.1371/

No, there is a Toyota app icon on your multimedia screen in CarPlay, tap that to get back.

1811 and everyone's still getting the badge! I think they meant the first 10,000 ;)

It was also supposed to be only for the first 1000 members, but we’re over 1k users and new members are still getting the badge @supersix

He has a 1958, there is no front camera in the grill.

You're gonna have to potty train that thing eventually.

Probably won’t need a new UCA for 2”, but easy enough to check the alignment geometry after installing.

The dobinson doesn’t include a UCA or diff drop, but says both are required for 2.5” kit. Did you find a compatible UCA for this kit? For King I’m only seeing their “OEM” suspension kit with no lift. If you see otherwise a link would be appreciated.

Agree to disagree I guess. I’ve used all three settings and they work fine, just as happy as my Audi heated seats.

I have a 1958 and the heated seats work great with the cloth seats. So unless you are getting covers I think you're fine.

I have a 1958. The six speakers are 4 woofers in front and rear doors, and 2 in the dash. There is no center dash speaker in the 1958, you can see it's missing in the amp install video posted on the forum. I can see a sub in the rear hatch but it makes no sound from the music played regardless...

The problem is, a lot of people feel compelled to share their opinion before they have all the facts. Can't tell you how many times people have tried to tell me what kind of tire I should run, who have never been to the high-desert in Oregon. Haven't gone off road with sharp volcanic rock...

I don't have any regrets with getting the 1958. I was hesitant about the cloth seats too, my first choice would have been softex. Personally, I would choose the cloth over leather. The 'cloth' appears to be a woven, thick/wide thread synthetic. So it doesn't look like it's going to wear in the...
