For future reference when you do the diffs and transfer case buy the harbor freight multi use transfer pump. It will pump a quart of diff oil like that in like 6 pumps.
Hi @artwerksgarage, I just purchased my firts LC, I am very excited to start my build, its a 2016 but with just 30k miles on it ( a rare find). Unfortunately its black which I dont like, I really want to put those trd bronze wheels on it but they are hard to find and expensive, are those the HE ones? 17 or 18 inch? Or are yours the ones used in 4runners and sequoias? Im new on the Toyota world, thank you! Really like your video
Yes, my wheels are the bronze, 18", BBS, TRD wheels that come on the HE. I bought them from a shop that built a HE rig for a guy that wanted different, aftermarket wheels. I paid only $1,600 for the set! I know, I practically stole the wheels at that price. It's ridiculous how much they are going for these days.
I'm not sure a video is necessary. There's just a couple of zerk fittings on the front and back of the driveshaft. It's pretty self explanatory. But if you'd like a video I'd be happy to make a quick one....?
HEs are nothing but a base LCs with nice BBS wheels, a horrible roof rack and no third row seats. It should cost the same or less. But there is a $20k premium for the HE. I feel sorry for people who wasted that kind of money for no reason. Oh, I forgot about the nice "Land Cruiser" badge on the backside. That must be why they charge a premium :D
Paying more money for a rebadged LC with less interior equipment on the HE model does not sound like a wise move to make. In actuality installing those BBS forged wheels on a basic 200 series already increases the worth to be higher than the HE itself .. The rear entertainment system plus the third row sits have to amount to over $10K of accessories an HE not longer has; instead you get $2k worth of wheels, $1K for the chrome delete, a $500 roof rack, and a couple of badges worth about $100 a piece. Those heritage models were a desperate move to sell leftover inventory before moving into new generations. Of course people bought into the hype at a time when a truck would cost more than a Land Cruiser itself. Nothing makes sense any longer, not even this post. 😂
Those wheels are nice and light weight and forged. I do too have a set of the H.E. 27lbs vs 35lbs If you want lighter the Volk TE37xt, they’re 20lbs, 18x9-1/2

That’s a lot of work, Art. Can you come up to Seattle and do my next?
You bet, my friend. I'm on my way...

Hey man what manual were you reading from?
The 2017 Toyota Land Cruiser Warranty and Maintenance Guide. It comes with the glovebox manual and other literature that the truck comes with new.
I did not think it was. Everybody is putting those wheels on their cruisers to make it look like a HE😂😂😂😂

Hi @artwerksgarage where did you puchased the wheels, are those 17 or 18 ? I see them going for like almost $900 per wheel now.
