    Alibaba Front and Rear Bumper on LX470 / 100 Series – My Experience

    I just asked the AI on this question, and here is the answer I got: For these Off-Road/Steel bumpers, there is no regulatory agency or safety standard in the US that requires them to be tested or certified! Because they bypass standard vehicle rules, the off-road steel bumper market is...

    Alibaba Front and Rear Bumper on LX470 / 100 Series – My Experience

    Just curious how all the bands in the market, all of those with $$$$ price tag, were crash tested? Do they put it on a real LX and/or LC to test? I'd think such test should be public information. Has anyone pulled such information to verify?

    Gas tank building excessive pressure & fuel smell. Dangerous for sure! Why does this happen?

    Slightly off topic. What app do you use to get all those reading?

    Flasher relay location?

    Yeah, 10 times more expensive. But claim "Made in USA".... (with foreign material maybe) Kinds of knowing why it's so expensive. Looks at those cool fancy "smart" features, which does need some R&D I believe. However, I think such "Unique Hazard Functions" might only just cause confusion on...

    2004 Land Cruiser Gauge Cluster FIXED! How-To

    For LC100, the stepper motor can be easily sourced at very reasonable price, even with 150% tariffs. However, it's another story for LX470. I have gone through the stepper motor swap when trying to find the root cause. Unfortunately, it seems like the issue is not with the stepper motor but...

    Looking for one 18" LX470 or LC100 rim, better to be the chrome one. Thanks.

    Coolant running over 210+ F in Phoenix

    I did think about the same type of setting. LOL glad to see I'm not so unique... :) Good to know. Yeah, I believe something is wrong. I could feel that there is some capacity issue with the cooling system... I did the burping process on the driveway where the front end is sightly higher...

    What is your coolant temperature in Phoenix?

    Yes, AC is always on. Otherwise, myself will be overheated When I first noticed this issue, it was running the distilled water. However, the air temperature was higher at that time... This gives me some confident not to worry about the overheating or another head gasket. I have a feel that...

    Coolant running over 210+ F in Phoenix

    I believe the bumper has enough openings and think the winch has more impact as it is a big chunk sitting right in front of the condenser and radiator
