    Anyone done oil change on LC/LC without using ramps?

    I attempted it without ramps a few days ago and it too close for comfort for me. Definitely easier with ramps

    2024 FE Edition: Swapping rock rails for OEM running boards from LC edition

    Yes you can, I just switched from OEM rock rails to OEM running boards a couple of days ago. The only difference is the mounting points. The steps mount to the body (6 bolts), and the rock rails attach to the frame (8 bolts). The necessary hardware for the steps are already bolted onto the...

    Channel set window deflectors

    Good to hear, I use PayPal if it’s offered, it just feels like extra insurance. That’s a great price, mine was $270 CAD 😬 Hopefully you can do a follow up post when it shows up!

    💨 Sold / Gone JDM Toyota factory rain window visors

    Seems like they are only available in Japan or Canada apparently. So is that the part number?

    Channel set window deflectors

    I’d like to clarify that I can’t speak to the legitimacy of that site; it’s just a link that popped up when I did a google search of the part number. Please let us know if it’s legit, I think that would help a lot of memebers!

    💨 Sold / Gone JDM Toyota factory rain window visors

    Is part number 08162-60840? That’s the number the service desk gave me last week. I know a few members on here have been looking for these with not much success

    1958 folks.. regrets?

    Looks closer to a 62 to me, but we’re splitting hairs here

    Very odd. I’m in Canada and that’s the number the parts counter gave me 🤔

    1958 folks.. regrets?

    I have a LCLC. For the price, the 1958 was just too bare bones for me, plus I prefer the rectangular headlights. I would have loved to have wool seats, but the limited adjustability (previously owned an ‘18 Tacoma and was paranoid about seating position) plus the lack of a 360 camera was a...

    Oil and Filter Change, easy peasy.

    Just did mine today at 1440km and noticed these rusty looking flakes when I poured out my old oil. Not sure where it came from, this the first time I’ve used this 5L jug for draining oil 🧐 EDIT I just realized I used another small (well used) container to put the used filter in. There must have...

    Delivery day for my LC

    Thanks! I would never have bought Heritage Blue based on pictures I’ve seen online; for some reason the color is rendered way too bright in digital photos. It’s more of a Blue/Grey when you see it up close. Best photographed on an overcast day imo. I saw one in that color in my neighborhood...

    Haven’t seen many in Meteor Shower that wasn’t a 1958, looks great!

    Channel set window deflectors

    I just pulled out my paperwork to have a look and all it says is 'side window deflector' ($269 CAD) with no part numbers, unfortunately. I'm assuming its an OEM item as it has TOYOTA stamped on it and it shows as an option when building an LC on Toyota.ca site EDIT @mountaindesert @Marinna Its...

    Door Sill Install

    Any chance you have a part number for those heritage center caps? Not a fan of the ‘T’ logo caps as it looks out of place imo

    Channel set window deflectors

    My LC had the OEM ones already installed..I like the retro look. I’m no expert on window vents, are these stick ons or in-channel? They look like they’re stuck on

    Picked up a 6 pack

    Well now that’s convenient! I got the oil on sale for $39 CDN, so roughly the same price once you factor in the conversion rate. I made sure to get the crush washers as well. For $8 I can’t imagine why anyone would consider aftermarket oil filters

    Picked up a 6 pack

    Grabbed a few filters today as I’ll be doing a change or two in between the OEM recommended intervals and am about to do my break-in oil change. I also picked up some Kirkland Signature 0W-20 as it’s much cheaper than the Toyota-branded Mobil 1 and it seems to tick all the boxes as far as...

    18’’ or 20’’ for winter?

    I like a softer ride so I normally get the smallest rims that will fit correctly; I’ll take all the sidewall I can get! My 2018 Tacoma had those TRD 16” wheels and I loved it. On my ‘02 Sequoia I had 17” FJ cruiser rims and ran Hakkapeliitta winter tires year-round for 4 years and they still...

    Land Cruiser Made in Hamura Plant, Not Tahara???

    From what I gathered from the Automotive Press YT channel, ‘R’ in the 9th position represents the 2024 model year. ‘K’ denotes Hino/Hamura or ‘5’ is Tahara in the 10th position. If any one can confirm or correct this info, please do so!

    The cone thing was hilarious, the driveway was sloped upwards skewing his line of sight. I shut it off after that
