    WTF The Dashcam

    Dealer wanted $367 to order the "part" (adhesive) and remount it for me. I'm getting 3M, popping these tabs and moving it over myself! ha Thanks for the step-by-step!

    The hybrid that can't...

    Took it into the dealer, the tech couldn't hear it, because it wasn't sitting long enough to cool down, which is when the sound happens and I couldn't leave it overnight. I explained the ticking sound during acceleration and the assumption by them is it has to do with how the engine is designed...

    The hybrid that can't...

    Mine was built at Tahara as well. I have the exact same ticking noise as I accelerate up to 20 mph...after my LC starts going uphill. This happens only when the engine is cold and then goes away after about a minute. I'm bringing it to the dealership so they can hear it, but I don't want them...

    How much poke & weight is too much and other suspension wear worries

    Good advice, did you go with Toyo Open Country?

    How much poke & weight is too much and other suspension wear worries

    Your spreadsheet is so helpful, so thanks for putting that together. I am considering a Westcott collar and leveling it out and adding 285/70R18 Falken Wildpeak AT4, they are C load, but 67 lbs, may go with Toyo...looking at your spreadsheet it looks unlikely I can use the original wheels, have...

    New 2024 Land Cruiser...modification advice

    Looks great!! How do the KO3’s ride? I had KO2’s on my 4 Runner, great tire!

    285/70/18 on +12mm offset rubs FYI

    Looks amazing, how is the road noise and MPG change? I was looking at this exact tire. Thanks.

    Lift & leveling kit options

    Looks great, I am waiting on my Westcott collar to arrive still...are those 18 inch wheels and which tires if you could share? Looks like Open Country?

    WTF The Dashcam

    This looks so much better, I have the same issue and need to move it over. Did you have to get a longer wire or were you able to just swing it over to the passenger side? Just curious if I need any new parts to do this?

    New A/T Tire recommendations, help!

    That is some well thought out logic....and a good looking tire! Great set up! I am just curious if you also looked at the Toyo Open Country III A/T? I have read a few posts that indicate the ride is not noisy on the highway and decent MPG. I have 18 inch wheels and may try these on stock rims...

    Just installed the Toytec 1.5" Front Leveling Spacer Kit

    Looks great! Exact same set-up I have on order right now, except going with a Westcott collar, but the same tires and just leveling it and adding some space. Great call on this set up! Did you have to trim away anything or did the leveling kit make enough room?

    💵 For Sale SOLD: Method MR316 & Falken Wildpeak AT4W (Portland, OR)

    Nice Wheels, did you choose the methods out of necessity to fit the larger tires? Methods are solid wheels! I wanted to try to get the same model tire on my stock 18 wheels with a westcott collar, but I am thinking it will be too tight. I am also thinking of going to a 275/70R18 maybe in a...

    Tire Upgrade ?

    Looks like a great tire, how is the road noise and the ride? I have heard from a few people that it is much better than they thought on the highway and I agree I was surprised that Toyota didn’t go with Toyo Open Country or something slightly more aggressive too.

    Looks amazing! I have ordered my westcott collar a week ago and just waiting...I am going to (TRY) to fit 285/70R18 Toyo Open Country AT III on stock wheels, haven't seen anything above 275/70R18 however. But I like the tires, seem way more smooth of a ride on highways than Falken Wildpeaks and...

    Tire Upgrade ?

    Looks amazing, did you do a westcott collar on that? I am debating between these tires and the Toyo Open Country AT III...how is the ride on these tires? I was going to try the Falken Wildpeak's but at 68 lbs a tire, was concerning to me - great looking set up!

    Tire Upgrade ?

    Looks great, I am thinking about getting the same tires, how do you feel it runs on the highway? Did you try 285’s on stock? I am going to try 285/70R18 on Stock with a westcott collar, but we will see…I actually like the Toyota wheels and want to keep them! Have you noticed acceleration to...

    Cooled seats performance?

    I live in Denver too…and it is been really hot here last couple days, but I had the same thoughts about it, seems less powerful than many other vehicles I have been in, but I’m going to crank up the A/C and get that fan on high and see if it makes a difference.

    New 2024 Land Cruiser...modification advice

    Thank you, I agree those KO3’s would be heavier, but high quality and tread pattern … man, lots to think through on this - 275/70R18 that would be light enough in weight would be perfect if I can find them

    New 2024 Land Cruiser...modification advice

    Just got my new 2024 Land Cruiser, premium model. Before that I had a 2003 4-runner v8 with a 3 inch lift and fuel wheels and that thing was a beast as I only had to change out the timing belt, it was issue free! My first impressions of this new Land Cruiser is it's got more acceleration power...
