Not today, but yesterday: I wheeled it through WoodPecker out near Florence junction. Check YouTube and search "WoodPecker" and "lower ajax". Nice trails with some challenges and fun times.

Put on my Onboard stickers

Got my clear corners and blinkers in and got them installed. Then ordered nearly 100 bucks worth of led's from v-leds.com
 
Put wire loom on my winch solenoid. Then tried wiring it in. Got tired of dropping bolts in the gravel. Came back inside and bought $300 of camping equipment.
 
Bought a used trutrac rear LSD to go with the front trutrac, I'm gonna be Trutrac'd up the whazoo!!
 
got my new sticker in the mail :banana: will probably take the Yamaha off when i get the tire carrier on because it is off center and its pissing me off....

Disabled the ABS, which was going nuts anyway. Pulled out the ABS fuse, till I can figure out whats wrong with the ABS and fix it.
 
Installed this...glad to have 4 cupholders up front now. One thing to note is the write-ups I read showed that you have to trim the bottom of the console to match the 96-98 contours but mine fit without doing so. Also didn't trim a thing off the bottom black plastic which I can credit to having the mounting bracket from a 99.

The Ultragauge came in the mail today, pretty cool little device, much smaller than I expected! Ordered Sunday evening - installed in the 4runner at 3pm today...very quick shipping. Hopefully it'll be all dialed in within a couple tank fills. So far my "city" driving mileage is better than I had estimated. :D
 
Nice Work CJ. Good to know the trimming isn't always necessary. (That mod is still near the top of my list)
 
As many of you know, I got my truck running again, by installing more injectors from the E-bay seller. He sent me 1 bad one again, but I simply re-used one of my old ones to get it going.

Next mod..... coming in the next 2 to 3 weeks.
 
Greased all my u-joint and drive shaft fittings to get rid of that pesky clunk!

I did the same.
The LC 80 & 100 have driveshaft clunk. It comes from the slipyoke. 99% of the time you MUST use a Moly Grease to eliminate it.

I also enjoyed the easy starts now.
 
Played in the snow, took a nice shot with my phone showing my revamped front grille. ;)

^^how do you like the clear corners? I am glad you posted it, I have white too and was contemplating clear corners.

And bumper looks good.
 
I like them alot, i think they complete the front end nicely. The clear accents the black nicely. If you search you can find my thread on the process in the 3rd gen section. I get many compliments at work on my truck now. It no longer looks like a family wagon.

Thanks for the compliment.
