Yep they were total crap. I have the 98 LC, and 2 LX470's and I go through ignition coils like they are going out of style for some reason....may be because they all have over 200K on them...

Yep. I've already had to replace 2 of the Amazon cheapos. OEM next time, but man they are expensive!

I ended up ordering a set of ignition coils off of Amazon and that took care of the issue.

So I went by an awesome place here in the Austin area called Land Cruiser Specialist and talked to Shawn… he was awesome and full of good suggestions! He recommended cleaning the mass airflow sensor, cleaning the throttle body, and then pulling the engine cover and making sure there were no...

Yep, no pending or stored codes. Weird. Maybe it’s about to blow up or something…

Hey guys… 98 Land Cruiser 267,000 miles… Starting to stumble a little bit at idle and upon acceleration. I had first thought ignition coil, but no codes have been thrown at all…fuel filter about 10,000 miles ago. Did a video, but couldn’t get the stupid thing to attach. Thanks!

Man, I hate that I missed this! I live in Georgetown and currently have in my possession: 1998 LC, 1999 LX470, 2000 LX 470 (wife's trailer queen from Vegas)....oh, and a Toyota Highlander. The LC is the beast of the group for sure and has OME lift, ARB front, roof rack with a s*** ton of lights...

LiveFlyway, thank for the great LX. Heck of a road trip from Austin to Midland, but well worth it! You had a very well taken care of LX, and it was nice visiting with you and glad your LX is being passed on to another LC/LX aficionado. Us Texans (and Aggies) have to stick together on the...

Thanks for the info on the droop. I need to check that. I only went up about 1.5 inches (at least that is what it looked like as well as I could measure it) and had a 4 wheel alignement done when I got the new tires last week. CV boot had a small tear in it before I went up; I know I need to...

I'll try to post some pics tonight. My wife/kids are out of town, so I will actually have time to do it. Man, that front diff gear looks like it exploded.....bet that sounded nice afterward. The "keys" that I was referring to are also known as "pork chops", and from what I understand, replace...

Appreciate the welcome. Are spacers in the rear a bad idea? What about keys for the torsion bars...anyone make these??

First post for me....'98 LC, 285/75-16 Pro Comp Xtreme Mud Terrains, tweaked torsion bars, PAID FOR. I am in the Ridgecrest, CA area in the Mojave Desert and wheel the LC pretty extensively in my area in its stock form. It's time to start modifying and replacing parts, as I now have a...

First post for me....'98 LC, 285/75-16 Pro Comp Xtreme Mud Terrains, tweaked torsion bars, PAID FOR. I am looking for used Old Man Emu parts, such as N133 shocks for the front, rear shocks, springs, and torsion bars. Trying to do this cheap, but I know I may have to buy this stuff new. Does...
