🛠️ What Have You Done To Your LC250 Today?

Since there is so much disagreement about oil change intervals, I will go ahead and ask.

How often should we change the two hybrid battery intake fan filters?

I take a peek at them when I do my oil change, so far still look like new....... I'm thinking they'll last 50k or more of normal use and should I find my self in a dust storm........ I'll check them when I get home. This brought up a memory of the 1st time I/we got caught in a sand storm in Iraq and it started raining....... it was the darndest thing I had ever seen....... It was raining mud!

Today I installed the ARB differential breather for the rear diff. It was a fairly easy process.

Did you make a bracket to mount behind the fuse box?

 

[BreezTrd]

Washed and Waxed it.

I designed and 3D printed a mount for that same location. The hole there is an 8mm threaded hole.

Ceramic hybrid “wax” exterior, protective coat of VRP on entire interior and all outer molding, and Renew Blak ceramic hybrid tire protectant.

I’m always blown away at what ppl can do with 3D printing

Installed two parts that should have come from the factory!

I do not tow much, but this is the best hitch mount I ever had.

You can avoid the smog from getting scratched when off-roading.

You can protect the car from getting damaged from rear ended vehicles.

You can use it as step to access the roof.

You can use it as a seat to take a break.

You can use it to temporarily place your grocery.

and you can take it off anytime you want…

I went to Lowe's and in the shelving and closet area, I found a small shelving bracket. I took it home and with my drill, enlarged the holes that matched up to the arb breather and then took the Dremel to it to shorten the bracket. Then I spray painted it black.

But does it come with the beer?

But does it come with the beer?

I accidentally found that it can be a good platform for beer and a lot more. The hitch mount is so useful. I only wish them to make the platform bigger than it is.

Looks good - what does this do for your front camera alarms? Also, does the bar decrease your approach angle?

The last pic shows the front camera blockage but there are no alarms at all. As far as approach angle I can't answer. Betty will probably go see very little offroad, that's why we have the 4Runner. LOL

May I suggest a slight modification to the receiver design to allow something like this?

How does the premium Horn Sound (400Hz)

How does the premium Horn Sound (400Hz)

I'd say 100% better than the OEM "Beep - Beep"
