  Front Bumper Filler & Radiator Guard for Trimmed GX460 Bumpers

  By mtnco

  Been working on this one for a while. Late 2024, a friend and I trimmed our GX460 bumpers after some ground hits on the trails. Loved the clearance, but did not love the exposed A/C condenser and radiator, not to mention the unprotected engine intake and the fender liners flapping in the wind. Spring 2025, I started measuring and trying to design something better. Built and tested a couple prototypes over the summer to make sure it didn't whistle or rattle and was easy to put on or take...

  Dashboard Delamination

  By boardFrustration

  I am new to the Ram Forum. I purchased a new 2020 Ram Limited and was very happy with my purchase. As most of you know, these trucks drive great, are very comfortable, and have fantastic technology. All of these reason had me really enjoying my Ram. Unfortunately, I began noticing bubbling on the leather sections of the dashboard. It didn’t look great but the leather dashboard was still connected at the edges. Recently, it has begun to come apart and looks terrible (Pics attached). I got... Read more

  2.7 oil pan leak

  By 2023Cbd

  Rear 1965 fj45 taillights needed

  By jkdur728

  Well I just bought my 3rd 45 LWB project. This 1965 lived its whole life in California. Super excited about this one but it’s missing a lot of rarer stuff. Mainly the rear bed light housings and lens. Does anyone have a set they would be willing to let go? And or other options for this.

  Another Mercedes 380SL Restomod.

  By Flipper1938

  I too bought a cheap Mercedes convertible to play with. I know these cars have their issues, but I plan on getting rid of everything that causes problems. I'm sticking a 2002 chevy truck motor in it. A stock 5.3 is almost twice the horsepower this thing had when new. Supposedly a GTO oil pan is the trick to make this swap possible without replacing the whole front suspension. I will find out if that is true. I plan on gutting the car and... Read more

  EC Offroad or Hamilton questions for those who have this installed 2016+

  By dnh1

  I have researched this a lot and am sorry for starting a new thread but would like to know the answer as of today, not a few years ago. I have a 2019 LC 200. How long does the latest version of EC Offroad take to boot up and connect wirelessly? (also can someone please post a link in here to what I need to buy from them) Is there any issue with Bluetooth wanting to switch between the factory "Toyota Land Cruiser" bluetooth and the CarPlay bluetooth?

  Scary issue “tank slap”

  By 68 HEMI GTS

  Yeah that about describes it. Let’s cover the car. 68 dart. Everything is new, newer, or in good shape. New steering box. RMS upper control arms, hochkis tie rods, b body spindles. Calvert 90/10 shocks. The catch is I have the k member spaced 1/2” down for header clearance. (Hemi) I upgraded the brakes to strange and that’s when the issue first appeared though I think it’s coincidental. It’s done it once on the street (I changes the caliper position from front to back of the rotor... Read more

  Towing with a 200-series Toyota Land Cruiser

  By linuxgod

  I posted this on my personal blog at Towing with a 200-series Toyota Land Cruiser but wanted to share it here directly so it would be indexed. I've read a number of different thoughts and opinions about towing with the 200-series Toyota Land Cruiser. One popular opinion which seems to come mostly from owners of full size diesel pickups, is that due to the relatively short 112" wheelbase, the Land Cruiser is a poor towing vehicle. After a few trips and tweaks to my setup, I can... Read more

  PSA – Terrible Experience with OK4WD in Stewartsville NJ

  By ERC4

  I’ve sat on this bad experience for months, but I got together with a fellow Mud member this weekend who encouraged me to share it in order to benefit others on this board (particularly those in the NJ/PA area). In San Diego where I live, I use a great independent firm SD Trux for servicing which has never let me down. My daughter is a college student back east so I hoped that OK4WD would provide equivalent levels of professionalism in order to make sure she never has any issues with our... Read more
