Did anyone decide to order these? Interested to see how they shape up.

Not quite. It’s longer and a little more of a grind sound. I tried to take a video of it this morning but it wouldn’t do it for me….. so Classic. I’ll try to post a video of it this afternoon

I’ll look into that. If I figure it out I’ll do a post with a video of the sound and what I had to do. Thanks

I’d like to start this post by saying I have searched the forum and while there are other people having something similar. It does not seem like they’re describing what I’m hearing. My lx470 has a weird grind noise only on super cold starts. almost like a pulsing grind, definitely not constant...

Probably 10 days of 1+ inches. But 20-25 “days where we get snow”…. Our salt trucks tend to treat those with respect too

Hell yeah 🤝

Man! This literally sounds like you’re describing me! I’m so protective over it right now…. “I think you like this car more than me” -girlfriend I’m completely torn. A truck with character already would be so freeing. Never thought I’d have an Offroad vehicle that felt “too nice” to take off road

Hey MUD — longtime lurker here. I’ve been hunting for a clean 100-series for months and finally found what feels like a unicorn… or at least a serious dealership blind spot. Picked up this 1999 LX470 with 122k miles, rust-free, from a Nissan dealer in North Carolina that listed it for $12K...

@Valgrind did you proceed with Avalon Motors? curious what your experience was if so. I am looking at one of their LX’s right now. They seem solid and fair priced.

I sourced mine from @swamp-thing. Not sure what the part number is but he was great. Shipped it super fast and solid on pricing. Not sure if he has more lying around but I am sure he can assist!

You nailed it @Kernal. That’s exactly the thread I needed, wish I would’ve found it sooner. I’ll be saving that for future reference, or in case someone else post this issue. Perfect!

Apparently the spring has been “blowing out” this yellow plastic and causing the door latch to stop functioning. Sounds like no one’s encountered this, but it’s happened twice now on my 80. Decided to replace the whole latch (Thanks @swamp-thing )!Curious what some of you would have done, or if...

Just spoke with the dealer.. sounds like the spring is blowing out the back of the plastic housing and that’s what is causing it to break. I put this part on 4 months ago and it already broke. The dealer thinks I’ll go through the same issue with a replacement part..(I’m not convinced they know...

Neither the inside or outside handle will open the door, and the outside handle doesn’t “catch” like it normally does when it’s unlocked, it just pulled like it normally would if locked (I hope that makes sense). I can hear the unlocking mechanisms doing its thing. Toyota was able to get the...

Hi all. The drivers door on my 80 recently stopped opening and after tirelessly trying to find a solution, I took it to Toyota Dealer. Looks like I need a new door latch, I recently replaced the piece but I guess it was putting too much tension on the spring. Any help finding one would be...
