    lx470 cv axle replacement

    Ran across a decent price for some cv axles for a 100 series. Sold thru my local toyota dealership and the parts guy freaked out when I said it was a lexus lx470 because he doesn't have access to lexus part numbers. I would think they would be the same, anyone have experience with this?

    Failing clear coat on rear driver side door

    clear coat on my lx470 failed in patches only on the DS rear quarter panel. watched a couple youtube videos and fixed it myself. Light color sanding and spray can clear and it looks amazing. Go easy on the sanding and you're good.

    1970 FJ40 - Just purchased a restomod - Suspension just a little high

    Sell it and try to get your money back. Then do your homework and find one that works for you. Rig looks really clean underneath from what I can see, but unless you can do all the work yourself, you're looking at a pile of dough.
