    Northern Wyoming/Southern Montana Mechanic Recs?

    Did you find anyone Sunny? Looking for a good place to help my brother’s GX470, he’s stranded in Lander at the moment.

    SOLD [NYC] 5x 16” LX470 Wheels with Center Caps

    This is a set of 5x LX470 wheels with 4x center caps. They were used on my LX for about 20 years before swapping to Aussie-spec LC200 series 17s so they do show a fair amount of cosmetic wear. They were on the car for 20 years and 120k miles and they look like it. Tires have been dismounted so...

    SOLD [NYC] 100-Series LCAs and Rear Driveshaft

    Took these off my LX470 shortly after I bought it so they should have around 100k miles on them. I replaced the Lower Control Arms with new ones since at that time I didn't realize that it would be possible to press new bushings and ball joints into them. I replaced the Rear Driveshaft with a...

    I so dreaded getting a new windshield, glad for you that we ended up having a local expert after all!!

    AT205 for steering rack leak

    No need to use the whole bottle at once, 1/4 of it should suffice.

    Build The Story of Blue

    You know I love AHC and I know you do too, Classy! My opinion would be that $300 is a small price to pay to try and save such a brilliant system (obviously try do what you can to make sure that new globes are actually necessary first, which I think you are already doing). If the new globes don’t...

    SOLD "Barn Find" 1998 4x4 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4.0L with Selec-Trac — BaT

    My dad is selling his really clean XJ on BaT right now. The first owner passed away 12 years ago and my dad bought it from the first owner's widow's estate about a year ago. It is a NE truck but there is very little rust. I have done extensive maintenance under this XJ and it is definitely...

    Rust on LX 470, too much for $18k?

    Keeping the inside clean is just about the easiest “maintenance” you can do on a car. I’d probably be more concerned about that than this level of rust.

    For Sale NYC - 5x 16” LX470 Wheels with Center Caps

    As per the title, selling a set of 5x LX470 wheels with 4x center caps.

    Wanted Wanted (CO): Non-sunroof 100-Series

    Wow nice, I stand corrected! Had no idea. Still though — it might be easier to find one from overseas. Good luck with your search.

    Wanted Wanted (CO): Non-sunroof 100-Series

    I could be wrong but I’m nearly certain that non-nav is the only thing from your list (non-nav, cloth interior, no sunroof) that was sold new in North America. Should be able to start importing 1998s this year but you’re probably looking at over $15k.

    LX 470 mirror controls not working

    Not sure what the white plug or extra bulbs are for (bulbs may not be factory?) but the black plug is for your axle diff locker switch. If you have techstream, plug it in to see if you can control your mirrors from the computer. If you can then the problem is the switch, not the mirrors. In...

    Best paint option for wood drawer system?

    I made my own wooden platform and protected it with Spar Varnish. Allowed the natural beauty of the wood to shine through while affording it protection sufficient for the masts of wooden sailboats. Your platform looks like it is made with really nice quality wood — I personally would not want to...
