🛠️ Member Build "LunarCruiser" 1958' Build

[Trail250]

I went and bought a GX 470 to complement my Land Cruiser. Never been offroad and I think a real gem. No rust on the frame 144k miles. She'll do!

Check the YouTube video I just posted. I do a walk around and discuss how it feels to drive so far.

Interior mod over the weekend, I installed the Bulletpoint Rubigrid mount to prepare for future comm gear.

Midland MXT275 GMRS Radio Installed on My 2024 Land Cruiser. Took me a week to get it installed, waiting on Amazon parts. I kept changing it up, wanted to mount it on my dash, but had a terrible time trying to fish a wire down. So I opted for the glove box. Thought about keeping it simple and installing it under the seat and wiring it to the 12v, but now it's hardwired, and I can use my switch panel to turn it on and off.

Who makes that mount for the auxiliary breaker and aux beam box? Thanks

It’s a KC Hilites tray, honestly at the time there wasn’t much out there to choose from but I made this work with drilling my own holes to make the aux beam accessories fit.
