So I plan on tackling this job myself. I have been piecing together a parts and tool list for a DIY replacement. So many of the LC/LX470 owners on this forum have the exact same problem as you, me included. So lets look at my parts list shall we...
If you have enough of the busted bolt sticking out, weld a nut on the end. The heat shock will generally free it and it'll spin right out.
If that's not an option, a long soak in penetrating oil, I'm talking spray it a couple times a day for...
2002 LX with the factory nav sillyness. It does this thing where I'll intermittently have no sound after starting the truck - everything powers up, just nuthin' from the speakers. Next time I start the truck, I might have sound, I might not...
After retro-fitting stock 100 Series suspension to my '04 LX470, I was able to easily fit 285/75R18s.

I'm sure this has been asked, but I couldn't find it. I'm thinking of running a slightly undersized spare, 285/70r17 vs 285/75/r17, about half an inch I guess plus or minus. On a scale of 1) Only If You Absolutely Must Deliver This Message To...
First off: Who cares about the screen if you have a motor with a blown HG. Like TM said: is it blown? That's rare for a 2UZ. But "Soccer Moms" owned... it could be? Verify.
Once you verify your engine is OK, baselining the rig mechanically...
Depending on your options (number of slots/profile, mounting type, anodized specs, etc) each bar can run about $85-$165. Look closely at my pics and you can see 3 different examples of the 8020 profiles used. I’m probably most happy with the 6...
I apologize that I haven't read all 58 pages. OP's link pulls up a Spanish language Ali for me for some reason, is this the listing I should be looking at? https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2255799839472027.html
