Edit: I moved already and left it on the curb. Moving and don't want to take it with me. If you want it, it's yours.

Resurrecting old thread as I'm clearing out the parts shed before I move. Did you ever get this handled? I've got all the front bumper stuff off my 2004 blizzard pearl LX470. As I recall, it was pretty close to pristine when I took it off. Its in Fort Worth if you're interested.

If you've still got the wheels, I'll take them off your hands. I'm out of town for a couple weeks but I can pay you for them now if you don't mind letting them hang out for a while longer.

I've got these: SZ451 Super Z6

Duratracs are Mountain & Snow rated and are pre-perforated for studs. So while yes they're installed at the shop, it's not left down to random placement. I don't doubt that true winter tires are good, but the tread on the Duratracs holds up well and they're very quiet on the road. This is...

Sorry for the delay. Sometimes I wander off into the snow... That's correct - with those Z chains I can run them on all 4 corners on N or Hi with no interference or binding. I haven't tried them in Lo except for putting it in the garage. Only times I've chained up this season was pulling a...

I just put a set of studded Duratracs on my 80 and I'm a believer. I don't really drive the 80 into town much during the summer so I may just leave them on all year round. Between the studs and new Bilsteins at all 4 corners, it's gone from a white knuckle ride on mountain roads to a billy...

Man, I just left Colorado the same day you posted these. I probably won't be back until around the end of the month. Would it be possible for me to pay you now for them and pick them up from you in a few weeks or do you need them gone sooner than that?

Still have these?

I'm running KO2's on an otherwise bone stock LX470 and I use these cable chains in the mountains: I run them on all 4 tires when needed and don't have any issues with spacing or fitment. It is a little easier to install/remove them if you raise the suspension to high.

Will you ship?

Would you happen to have the part numbers for the OEM side vents?

Mine started doing the same thing this last fall, and it had always run about 10* hotter than what a lot of guys report. My radiator is only a couple years old so it wasn't the issue. I also updated the fan clutch, first modding my original with the higher viscosity oil and then swapping out...

They're not great, but not quite useless. OK, if you're in NOLA or Houston they're pretty useless, but noticeable in say North Texas. In Spring. In August you're on your own. Best cooled seats I ever used were early aughts Cadillac DTS/CTS. Those felt so good I thought I was cheating on...

@whaler - I know man - it's a journey. I see these guys on here with the pristine engines and I get jealous. I'm just trying to keep this thing going until the drop-in electric conversion becomes more practical.
