@cmpugh7 - nice camera setup! I’m about to order a wireless rear cam and screen to try for when I have the Dirtcom on. I only run it for longer trips but miss the rear camera for sure. Problem is the Maxtrax take up the best camera location so I’ll try mounting it to the plate or maybe the...
I recommend that you turn the fridge/ freezer on and fill it as much as you can with items that are already cold if you can. Maybe that doesn’t fit your use case but you’ll find that’s the recommended approach from the big brands. Fridge/ freezers are inefficient at cooling an empty space, they...
I'm happy with the GP Factor board mounts for sure. I ran them with the Dirtcom on my 4Runner and now the LC, but again, only for trips, not full time. Quality stuff!
Same, I bedded in my brakes when new and no issues for the first 2,500 miles or so. I'm at 7,000 miles now and the squealing while braking in reverse seems to be here to stay. Heading back to the dealer again Monday after getting Toyota Care involved. The first time I took it in at 5,000 miles I...
I do miss the rear camera view and am considering an inexpensive add on wifi rear view camera mounted to the Dirtcom carrier but skeptical on how much of a pain it might be to access the camera from my iPhone when needed. I only run the Dirtcom carrier for longer trips but it is high quality and...
Same situation with me. It is very loud and happens everyday, more now than before and we’ve had dry weather with low humidity and it still happens. Dealer didn’t find anything wrong. Waiting on Toyota to call me but not holding my breath.
I did my usual bedding in process when my LC was new, had zero screeching when backing out of the garage until I was over about 2,500-3,000 miles. Now it does it every time I back out of the garage and sometimes during the day when I’m braking while backing up. Last week I did a few mini...
Note on the Cooper Road + Trail. I tried a set in 265/70 R18 SL and was impressed with their onroad feel and relative quietness as well as their feel off road. I wanted to keep them but 2 out of 5 tires couldn’t be balanced after 4 tries between two different shops. Always had a shake and...
You might want to try a GPS Speedo app while not being connected to CarPlay or Android. My prior Wrangler on 35s would output the incorrect speedometer reading from the Jeep to any driving/navigation app I was running. Running a GPS Speedo app without being connected to CarPlay showed me the...
I opened a case just now, submitted a video. When I took it to the dealer two weeks ago they blamed the fact that I had driven the LC through dirt and mud but it made the horrible screeching sound before my off-road trip and still makes it now after they said they cleaned the brakes up...
A lower profile drawer kit and a drawer-less base platform would be nice options to choose from. I’d prefer my fridge be lower for easier access and to lose less cargo height for day to day use.
Thank you for the input, definitely time to see what a different shop can do. I like the Cooper R+T but I would go to a bigger size in the next tire if these turn out to be a bad set. Just not enough non E options yet in the 275/70 18 size but I would like that little bit of extra height over stock.
Did you have any issues with balancing the Cooper Road and Trails? The shop I bought from has tried balancing mine 3 times and the vibration and shaking between 65-75 mph won’t go away. I’m about to change to a different tire but curious if you had any balance issues with yours?
I’m impressed with the R+T on road for sure. Quieter than I expected so far but they are still so new. I’ve had the K02, Wildpeak AT3W, and Rubitrek and the R+T are hands down the best on the road. I don’t expect them to be as rugged off road but they will get some good sidewall challenges in a...
I ordered from a local dealer, Harr Toyota in Worcester, MA because I wanted to see them in person before accepting them. In the past I had a set of different Toyota wheels show up from BAM parts online and 3 out of 5 were dinged in shipment. Plus Harr had great pricing during the 4th of July sale.
Howdy from New England/ Eastern MA. I picked up our LC Trim a few weeks back and am really enjoying it! I traded in a ‘22 4Runner Off Road Premium with KDSS for it and was worried if I was spoiled by the KDSS for on road handling. 2,200 miles in and I’m thrilled with the choice to go with this...
