Can you do a video detailing a bit of your roof rack/KC Lights? Of course install vid ain’t there but I’m looking to put a similar roof rack and light setup on my LC! Or what rack/cross bar did you use?

@ken-ec9wv 5 лет назад

i have the same 1999 toyota landcruiser, it still looks awesome paint wise and everything still works, 152,000 miles on it, love it and think it’s one of the best suv trucks ever built, still have too do all maintenance, but that’s how you get 400,000 miles out of it, thanks for the videos., just a note, every light inside and out in my truck is led, except the headlights/ driving lights/ instrument/ climate control, cluster’s, is fitted with phillips vision series led lights, for the blinkers too not hyper flash, you just need too replace the 9 pin flasher underneath the dashboard, it really lightings the load on the alternator, i don’t have any lightbars, but you should replace those off road lights with a led light bar of some sort, u have an awesome toyota, how can i get bluetooth from my radio?? that’s awesome!!

@chowcares 5 лет назад

ken thanks for the compliments! I installed the Bluetooth adapter before I started making videos. Maybe I’ll take it apart and make a video how i did it, it’s super easy!

@ken-ec9wv 5 лет назад

chowcares that would be great, bluetooth in a 1999 landcruiser!🤘

@TheStinkySaddle 4 года назад

Thanks for sharing! After installing the OME torsion bars, does the increased tension in the bars give you the additional lift and or do you have to adjust the bars to your liking? Thanks again!

@chowcares 4 года назад

The additional tension adds lift. Basically, you don’t have to crank it as much to achieve the same amount of lift compared to the stock ones

@hanglu1335 4 года назад

Love your vid. Any thoughts about mounting spare on rear bumper and install a axillary gas tank in the under space to extend outdoor trips. Thank you.

@chowcares 4 года назад

Thanks! I’ve actually already moved the spare already and a long range tank might be a good idea! I’ll do an update vid soon on the mods I’ve done in the last few months

@brkbtjunkie 4 года назад

It’s an expensive endeavor but long range America makes a 40 gallon you can fit under there, all aluminum for about $1800

@timpetro2246 4 года назад

Hey! Nice rig! What is the name of your module you used for the Bluetooth connection on the stock radio? I’d like to do the same for my 1998.

@chowcares 4 года назад

tim petro I believe it’s called crux. I purchased from crutchfield

@davidvasquez5387 4 года назад

If you had to do your tires again, would you still do 35” or go down to 34”? Since you’re having a small rub at high speeds.

@chowcares 4 года назад

David Vasquez is definitely do a 35. As a matter of fact, I’ve been looking into getting 35 MTs. The rubbing is minimal because I drive slow normally. Plus the 35s are so nice on the trails!

@robertv6220 5 лет назад

What did you use to mount your ARB Awning to the rack, how many mounts did you use?

@chowcares 5 лет назад

Robert V I had my fabricator weld 3 square pieces onto my basket. Then drilled 2 holes into the squares for the bolts to go thru.

@changhongli9969 4 года назад

hi, just want to know, at 5:50, on the right side of your ARB compressor, what is that silver colored pipe. I have a 04 land cruiser and my pipe at the same position was like cut off. just want to know what is that for. Thank you.

@chowcares 4 года назад

If im looking at it correctly, it should be for you a/c. does the a/c in your 100 work?

@changhongli9969 4 года назад

@@chowcares yes, it does work, both AC and heater. nothing wrong with my car, but just have some cut off pipe exist in my car which is weird.

@huskynoob7881 5 лет назад

How did you setup constant power for your fridge?

@chowcares 5 лет назад

HuskyNoob I ran a fused wire directly to the battery. I just have to be careful and make sure I turn the fridge off when I’m not using it

@kritzc2809 5 лет назад

Nitro doesn't make the uniball UCA (JTOUCA-TLC100-BJ), but Total Chaos (#99500) have them. Nitro replace with an almost similar to SPC (SPC-25455) with serviceable sealed 2007 Tundra type upper ball joint. (NPUCA-TLC100-BJ)

@chowcares 5 лет назад

Kritz C yup this is an older one they don’t offer anymore. Probably due to the need to constantly clean and lube. I’ll probably upgrade to the spc eventually

@kritzc2809 5 лет назад

Yes, @@chowcares i would probably do likewise. Anyway the Nitro UCA is over five years and fifty thousand miles, and only twice i'd lube. By the way, lubing the uniball with the hundy jack up; by letting the the UCA on full droop, show better results. At least it works for me that i didn't have to lube in the last two years.

@chowcares 5 лет назад

Good to know! I’ll give that a try

Hi, Where can I get the mount for the day lights?

@chowcares 3 года назад

If you have a roof rack, there are many mounting options

@ladweeb1798 4 года назад

Can lower the music next time?

@brkbtjunkie 4 года назад

Did you get the medium rate springs from OME?

@chowcares 4 года назад

Yup 860. Upgraded to 864, vid coming soon

@brkbtjunkie 4 года назад

chowcares are the 864 the heavy springs? I wonder how rough the ride is while it’s unloaded if so. My plan is to install the 40 gal aux fuel tank and rear steel bumper so I might need the heavy springs after all. I’m doing a LX470 overland project and still in the planning phase. There are so many complications to figure out, it’s taking a long time to research it all.

@thebigempty_5792 4 года назад

It's not a Yakima roof rack. You have a stock roof rack with cross bars. It's a cargo basket. Rhino Rack/Frontrunner/Prinsu/Gobi/Eezi-Awn make actual roof racks.

@chowcares 4 года назад

My mistake!

@huskynoob7881 5 лет назад

you must have been sweating being pulled over haha! how do you run fridge, lets say if camping during weekend. Does it not drain battery overnight since don't have a second one?

@chowcares 5 лет назад

Yuuuup! Dang cops haha. Actually, I’ve taken the fridge on weekend trips and I always leave it on overnight. The fridge has a built in shut off when it senses the battery voltage drop below a set amount. There’s 3 setting you can choose from, currently I have it set to shut off at the lowest voltage setting and it has never hit the shut off or cause the car not to start in the morning. I assume during the night with no one opening the lid, the amount of power to keep cold is minimal. The best thing about the fridge is being able to have ice cream on the trails! 👌👌👌

@huskynoob7881 5 лет назад

@@chowcares i finally got it installed, i did an arb wiring kit with a 12v connection, i went with a cheap alpicool fridge from Amazon and 3 months in and still working a nice $300 dollar chinese fridge. Any new updatesM

@williamwoody7607 4 года назад

Please discuss the tires. How does the spare differ from the others? Thanks.

@chowcares 4 года назад

The spare is still stock. It’s not ideal but to fit the same size spare I would need somewhere to put it. My next update will include info on a full sized spare, stay tuned!!!

@williamwoody7607 4 года назад

chowcares Thanks-I was afraid of that. Do you know what the largest size tire would be that would still fit underneath? I’m really enjoying your videos! I wasn’t sure I wanted a 100 series, but you really tipped the scales for me!

@chowcares 4 года назад

William Woody technically, you will be able to fit a full sized spare 315/75/16 in the stock location IF you remove the factory tow hitch. If not, the largest you can go is a 285 tire
