I haven’t called yet. I have a bunch on my plate at the moment and this is getting pushed down the road right now.

Sounds good. Thanks, man!

Thanks for the input, guys! @2001LC, I’m a DIYer and my local mechanic is a generalist, not a Toyota or Cruiser specialist. Should I just ask him about a re-builder? Are there specific questions I should ask in addition to not painting? Thanks again!

Anyone have any knowledge about BBB Industries remanufactured power steering racks? As much as I'd love to get a new OEM or even a new aftermarket, it's not in the budget. RockAuto has them for ~$275 after sending the core back...

Yup. Thanks for the help, fellers. The caliper flange bolt and O’Reilly’s confirmed it. Now to get a helicoil set. Any recommendations for a home mechanic that’s only work on metric cars for the foreseeable future. Trying not to spend a lot but I’d guess this won’t be the last time I deal...

I'm disassembling the front hub and when I remove the hub bolts to separate the rotor from the hub, I discover that some chicken f#cker forced a 1/2" x 13 bolt into the axle hub and it doesn't appear that the redrilled or tapped the hub before doing so. I'd like to repair it with a helicoil and...

Hey guys, Looking for some knowledge. I'm doing an AHC delete on a 2003 LX470. The vendor that sent the OME parts sent coil springs 2886 instead of 2866. And, of course, they don't fit. 🤬 The vendor is closed during the weekend and I don't know yet if they'll be able to get me the...

I don't suppose you have the AHC height sensors/potentiometers from that truck? If not, how much do you want for the conventional suspension? I have an '03 that is riding funny and I'm hoping not to do my conversion right now but I may have to. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Joe

Yeah, I'd like to do away with mine but I was hoping for another 6-9 months to save for a conventional suspension. We'll see how it goes. Thanks for the response! -Joe

I got in mine this morning and I get a high front end and some bounce. Having done a little reading on here, I'm thinking I might have a bad sensor and maybe a globe. Does anyone have a FSM for the LX? Mine's a '03 LX470. I have a 100 series Land Cruiser but it doesn't cover the AHC. Thanks...

Not sure. This is the first time I’ve dealt with it in this truck. If you’re having repeating issues then there’s probably some kind of issue. Or really bad luck with bulbs.
