Is this travel ball?
It is, they were playing in a wood bat league.
Can I hook these lights directly to high beem lights?
Thanks for watching the video. Anything is possible. I haven’t taken the time to figure it out.
Cool bevius!
Aren’t they actually-6 offset !!?
Just get a proper 2.5” suspension lift and all is fine.
You think it would be safe to put a 5lb propane tank right there? Most people put it in the back of their rig
Thanks for watching the video. This is just my opinion… I would not transport propane or anything wider than the mirror on the side of the vehicle. I wouldn’t want to risk the chance of something hitting it driving. I use my panel for hanging my water heater while we’re stationary. Great question! 💪😎
@LXPlore thanks man, you came to mind when I was thinking about it. You need to post more videos of your LX. It's been a while.
@@LuanNguyen-rj1bt yes it has… too long. Hopefully soon.
Hello works for a 2016 SR5
Saweet… thanks for watching
Great video, easy to follow.
Saweet! Thank you for the kind words.
Thank you very much!
How do I get 25% off?. Great video thanks
Thank you for watching. Keep visiting Ironmans website. They always post discounts
The rear bolt holes needed to cleaned out with a wire brush and the new bolt will screw in with no issues.
Two years later your video inspired me! Just picked up a 2000 LX-470, got it for a really good price, one owner.
Boom! Congratulations and thanks for the kind words. What’s in your agenda of mods and upgrades.
@@LXPlore a good simple front bumper, rear bumper, side sliders, awning. Going to run the original suspension for a good while till it doesn't work then switch it out. I'm lucky it came with new KO2's- (I usually run Toyo Open Countries on my rigs) might as well use them.
@@tronaboron2064 very nice… enjoy it.
What are those seat covers?
Here’s a link to my review.. th-cam.com/video/oBULc6XRbfc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=phD2KsJHRJGKscsI Thanks again for watching!
I played here is this santo field?
Yes, good eye. Good location but the infield is a little lumpy.
Will this with diff drop?
Thanks for watching the video. Yes this will work with a diff drop. I have one on my 100 series.
@@LXPlore same with Lx470 right?
@@damiansmith391 yes I have the LX470.
Thanks for the helpful vid!
Thank you for watching the video.
Quick question… has the part from Amazon held up ok over time?
@@KingsofTruth425 yep… still running strong.
Hey. Just found your channel. Great video. Considering getting one of these. Was first thinking of getting a Victory side panel, but this has 2 suction cups to spread out the weight and is made to match the 100 series. Both things I like a lot. I like that the Victory one is hinged to allow easy cleaning behind it though. Have you had any problem keeping that window clean?
Thanks for watching. No not really. The panel is flexible and wasn’t too hard to reach under.
Nissan patrol > land cruiser
Thanks for watching… you could be right, I’ve never driven a Nissan Patrol.
Where are the located exactly?
Thanks for watching the video. Prospeedrack is located in Orange County, CA. Made in the USA!
Will this fit the 2024 sr5 4 runner model with sunroof?
Thanks for watching. I would assume yes… but definitely confirm it with Prospeed.
I’m searching for a lift on my 05 lx 470, Ive heard old man emu sags after 1 year with no off road use
Thanks for watching the video. I chose not to go the Old Man Emu route. I have a bit of a hybrid lift. I have a video of my suspension… I’ll try and share the link to it.

As an American patriot, I can not support Asfir from Israel for moral reasons. Otherwise great list! Ordering LED bulbs now

Why the Scanguage 2 vs 3? One mod to my 05 LX is the Grom AUX in adapter, $90 shipped, I hook up a portable CarPlay screen but can also hookup my moded iPod 5th Gen.
You know I never even looked at the scangauge 3. It does look a little bigger than the 2. 🤷🏻♂️ I’ll have to check it out. I’ve heard good things about the Grom, maybe something to think about for the future.
@@LXPlore I would say the Grom carplay looks cool but 1) too expensive 2) you can't upgrade the actual screen. For $90 to get AUX in is great. I will say the $20 bluetooth radio transmitters do sound good but once you drive into an area where radio signals change then it a problem.
@@jjuarez83 the GROM will most likely be my next mod. Thanks for the suggestion.
My best hack when I bought my LX was that I had a Mazda 3. Mazda was totaled so now I daily the LX. Lucky for me my next tip is go get a WFH job like me, saves tons of gas.
These are definitely the best hacks to improve MPGs. I need to find a WFH job. Thanks again for watching. 🍻
For around here, with all of the water crossings we have in the Ozarks I’d say extended diff breathers. Most people don’t know that the factory ones arent actually breathers. They are just a vent. So when they get up to temp they can vent off the needed air. Then when you cross that epic river or even just a small creek, they want to suck in air as they immediately contract due to the much colder water than the operating temp, and they’ll usually suck in water past the seals. A simple breather will end this problem. No more chocolate milk diff fluid.
Thanks for watching the video. Yes, extended diff breathers are a must for water crossing. Here in SoCal, water crossings are few.
Great video as always. Welcome back John.
Thank you sir!
Agree with all your choices. I've got them all except the skid plate. It's on my list. I would add interior molle panels and/or attic shelf from prospeedrack. Good to see your mug back on the 'tube!
Hahaha thank you, it’s good to be back. The attic shelf is definitely on the list of things to do. Thanks again for your support.

Man this video came at the absolute perfect timing. I just installed 5% tint on the LX and couldn’t see a dang thing when backing into my parking spot. I will 100% be getting those Lasfit Reverse lights. On another note - I’d have to throw in a set of Seat Jackers from Desert Does it. I have a set in my GX and it was my top #1 favorite upgrade. I’ll be ordering a set for my LX very soon. Cheers!
Boom! Thanks for watching. I’m glad I could be of some assistance. The install is super easy… I actually have an older install video.
good to see you active and posting up on here! That new cover looks great.
Thank you! It’s good to be back.
Good to see you back man
Thanks Tony, it’s good to be back.
Waiting like....🍿
Thanks my friend!
@@LXPlore can’t wait to check it out!
Thanks!insane job. laetr,
How did you unplug the OEM relay? I got the screw undone. Plate and trim removed underneath the steering wheel but I cannot for the life of me get the connector out. Thanks!
Thanks for watching the video, if I remember correctly, once the harness and the old relay were unscrewed, I was able to unplug it as it hung down.
This is awesome - after I watched your video on wiring the ironman bumper this was an easy way to solve the hyper flash. Thanks so much!
Thanks for watching the video! Glad I could help.
Where can I orden look very very nice
Thanks for watching the video. Check out garagealpha.com
Any thought on turbo for increasing mpg? Or is the cost vs reward not worth it?
Thanks for watching the video. I’d say that a turbo will bring more smiles per gallon, not sure about miles. More horsepower and a lighter right foot might yield higher MPGs. Not sure what a turbo cost or what the labor would be.
Do you have to unplug the battery after spark plugs to reset the fuel trim?
Thanks for watching the video. Honestly I didn’t and I’m not entirely sure if it’s necessary. Probably wouldn’t hurt, plus it’s always good measure when working on your vehicle.
@@LXPlore I’m getting worse mileage after changing plugs, used Toyota parts too so not sure what’s going on. The old plugs were definitely crusty.
@@brkbtjunkie i’ve actually heard this from several people. No rhyme or reason. 🤷🏻♂️
@@LXPlore something to do with the fuel trim, I reset my battery this morning and I’m already getting better mileage now. Appreciate your channel man! I’m currently pressure washing the underside of my lx to prepare for surface shield cause I live in central Virginia
What do you mean reset your battery. I changed my fuel filter and fuel pump and my mileage has gone UP 25%! I'm scared to do the spark plugs as if I jump up again in fuel use .....are who am I kidding... I love it! Interested in the reset battery thing if it helps though. Cheers@@brkbtjunkie
You can get 8 Denso iridium spark plugs and 8 Denso coil packs from Rock Auto for 500 bucks delivered in 2 days. My local dealership wants 150 per coil, not installed! I said are you guys crazy, do you know why most people use Rock Auto?!
I’m gonna say people use Rock Auto because of their low prices. I’ve used them for several things.
@@LXPlore Agreed, and they don’t sell counterfeit parts. eBay and Amazon concern me unless it’s coming from a dealership.
@@hokie9910 EBay is definitely prone to counterfeit parts. I just research the Amazon seller before I buy. Thanks again for watching.
@@LXPloreTH-camr Care Care Nut who is a former Toyota Master Technician that now owns his own shop has a video on how to identify counterfeit Toyota parts Amazon is really bad. 99% of buyers wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. I only buy from dealer or Rock Auto
@@SeahawkAz thanks for watching the video. Buyer beware!
I found one that is plug and play for my 04. It says there is a white unused plug by the kick panel
When I was initially researching this, I saw the same thing. I looked for it but couldn’t find it. 🤷🏻♂️
@@LXPlore what year is yours?
@@nathanrotar5012 my LX470 is a 2002.
Is the code going to be same on 2006 lx470? Because when i go to their website, code is different
Definitely follow the codes from the website. The codes I provided are for the 2002 and earlier.

Lol, one of my first videos. Thank you for watching and commenting.
@@LXPlore told my wife that was the best Land Cruiser review video I have seen. We adore that car, I would have been more brutal…
@@9greatdanes981 Thanks… gotta be honest.
Brake booster sucks $3600 every 200k miles.. Engine in the 470 sucks, 11 miles per gallon transmission sucks for economy. The suspension goes out every 200, and that’s $3500, the manifold suck and go out, another 3500, and when the exhaust goes nothing Works! I use mine for my 3 boys, wife and Great Danes
100% ….but I still love them. Thanks for watching the video!
Yeah… I’m a little bitter I bought a 2002, with 180,000 miles on it. Flawless. I spent $10,000 on maintaining it. I totaled it a month after. Then I bought a 2005. Drive it to Moab for the shake down run. And as I start climbing baby lions back for the first time, every warning light lights up, lose a track ability, and everything else… because of the manifold… Dam right I continued! It’s my wife’s daily driver.
@@9greatdanes981 I want to say everything got better once I change the suspension. I have two issues right now one is the stereo doesn’t really work I think it’s the amp and my driver side exhaust manifold has a slight leak in it.
How long it took u to received this? They are base in israel right?
Thanks for watching the video. Surprisingly, it took only a few weeks. Definitely faster than I expected.

The nut on the fuel line going into the filter on mine is completely stuck :( was going to change my filter out today but couldn’t get it off and the nut was beginning to deform from all the torque. Trying penetrating oil now and hoping that does the trick
Hmmm sounds like the previous owner or shop may have over tightened it. 🤷🏻♂️ Thanks for watching the video… I hope you’re able to get the nut loose without too many problems.
