Introducing "Land Cruiser Garage Talk" – Your New Go-To for Garage Gear & Setup

[Dragoon]

Hey Land Cruiser crew,

We’re stoked to announce a fresh addition to the forum: Land Cruiser Garage Talk! This new section is all about where you park or work on your Land Cruiser—the garage. Whether you’re wrenching on your LC, organizing your space, or geeking out over the latest tools, this is the spot to swap tips, show off setups, and dive into the nitty-gritty of garage life.

I love custom garages... love to see pics of everyone's setup and their favorite must have gear!

It's just a general term. It also includes driveways, carports, and sheds.

I think it was a rhetorical question/meme…

Let's start with ramps and jacks. Which models do you guys like or recommend and why.

That's a great question! I need a new hydraulic jack as well.

I have owned two ramps. I gave the $79 steel set from Horrible Freight away to my X GF so she could easily do her own oil changes. They were kinda big, heavy, clunky, noisy, and more difficult to store. I replaced them with the $49 plastic ones from AutoZone. they are much easier to store, much lighter, and less clunky than the steel ones from Horrible Freight.

I bought a lime green (easier to spot in someone else's garage) three ton floor jack from Horrible Freight (pre pandemic) to use with my one ton Transit van (~6,200#'s). It works great. I don't know what I paid for it.. maybe $125???
