Wade Pat2 Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 @Wrangeld Thanks for the reminder. I can take pictures tomorrow of front if needed so you can confirm. Will the standard Land Cruiser 100 series front tow hooks be sufficient if they are in good shape? I was already headed to shop in am so I'm sure I can have some rated ones bolted on in their place if they have them in stock. For rear I'm not sure what is there besides a pintle style hitch. Will see if I can find a replacement to bolt on with shackle for rear tomorrow if needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaurav Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 @Wadepat2 LC100 has inverted hook in front and strong pintle hook at the back from the factory. So technically you don't need any additional hooks, if you stock ones are in good shape (not shaking) and not rusted. 4 Let's root for each other & watch each other grow.

Redza Jamil Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Hello @Wrangeld and everyone else in the group. My name is Redza (or you can call me RJ). I've watched the tutorial video and my equipment is complete. I drive a 2015 Land Cruiser and have some experience driving off-road. My wife @kolin recommended me to join Carnity and I look forward to learning new things. Edited April 6, 2021 by Redza Jamil 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have enjoyed @kolin joining our drives and hope that she will not be pushed out of the driving seat for ever once you get the off road bug as well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahul Hi Rahul, Ford Explorer - two things. First remove the air dams at the front. They make the car too low if fitted. Secondly, please make sure that the D hooks for towing are installed. Whereas everyone will tell you they are fitted as standard, I have had one or two occasions where an Explorer did not follow the 'standard' rule. As @Lakshmi Narasimhan, for an absolute newbie drive, your car is fine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
