Hi, new member from Stafford, VA. Looking forward to meeting other members in the area and also reading about others vehicle preparations and their overland travels. I drive a slightly modified 99 Toyota Land Cruiser. Be safe.

Sorry, no pics at this time. I'll get some up, eventually. It is a UZJ-100. White with beige interior. I have owned and Eden working on it since the end of 2013. It has 242k and I just did my second timing belt, water pump, tensioner, fan bracket, fan clutch and the other things that are normally done when you are doing the timing belt.
Modifications are: ARB front bumper with 10k winch with synthetic rope; Iron Man front torsion bars with medium rear springs (2 1/2" lift), tough dog front and rear shocks; Firestone rear airbags; Trail Taylor rear heavy duty lower control arms, control arm skid brackets, and extended rear sway bar ends; Slee off-road rear skid plate for rear locker motor; Asfir front aluminum skid plate with TJM oil pan and transmission skid plates; no name snorkel; 285x75x16 GY tires; dual batteries with Slee battery tray and Hellroaring battery isolator; triple locked with factory rear locker, center and ARB front locker.
I also did the version of the "grey wire" mod for the rear locker; day time running light mod, and center "locker" mod. I recently did front and rear brake pads and the previous owner had Toyota install after market drilled and slotted rotors.
I have done most mods and maintenance with the exception of the front install of the ARB locker which OTRAM did (I installed the ARB switches and wiring). I wired cleaned, brushed and POR 15 the frame to resist rust. I do get a lot of information from other sites such as IH8MUD.
Been enjoying the build and will eventually purchase or build a rear bumper.
