Hello all, In 2023 I inherited my dad’s 96 80 series with 73K miles. I had some work done to get it drivable as he hadn’t driven it much in the preceding 5 or so years. So now I have a black 96 LC and a black 2016 LC. As my kids will soon need their own means of transportation, I’m considering...

Just drove my ‘16 from West Virginia to Yellowstone and back. I had noticed the vibration before but it was nearly unbearable on some descents so I too switched to engine breaking. What does one pay for new rotors? My LC has 35K miles btw.

That’s awesome. Thank you very much. I will put them at 46. I really appreciate it.

BF Goodrich customer support just advised me to use 50psi for lt285/60rt18.

So how does one find the recommended pressure for any given tire? So it is definitely 46 for Lt285/60r18? The dealer installed them and left them at 40psi. What would be their reasoning (or lack thereof) for that? Thanks a lot.

So I got a flat in the stock tires at 30K miles and had the dealer replace all 4 with ko2 lt285/60r18. Just picked it up today. Per the tpms 1 rear is 38, one rear is 41, the fronts are 39 and 41. Haven’t manually checked the pressure but I will tomorrow. As I understand from reading this and...

My family and I were about 200 miles into a trip when the buttons under the screen quit responding and the screen was locked on my home screen. It was no longer updating the range or mpgs just frozen. A few minutes later the whole screen just went dark and then came back up as if I had just...

My 16 LC has same issue. On our way back from a trip (at about 15K miles on the odometer) I noticed I was holding the wheel to the left to go straight. Took it for an alignment and after that it was good. For a week. I now hold the wheel to the right to go straight. I did slightly rub a curb...

Looks good. So my understanding is you apply a coat, wait 20 minutes and repeat x 4. Is that right? And does it truly peel easily around edges? I would guess getting the emblem so perfect would be a bit tedious.

That looks great by the way. I may just go with the plastidip for the grill (and maybe the rear center land cruiser logo) if you seem to be getting decent life out of it there. Mine is black so I went with matte black for the chrome trim bits described above. Thanks.

As an update, my wife took the land cruiser to the dealer for 15K service and the steering wheel issue. They did an alignment and the wheel is now back to center which makes me happy.

As I've gathered from this forum, no one seems to appreciate the chrome accents. I ordered some 3m wrap and touched up the chrome under the tail lights extending up to the center piece with lettering. Mind you, I've never done anything like this before. I basically cleaned it, stuck it on...

Thanks. I haven't had an alignment done on it. Though sounds like I may be getting one done. Will keep you posted.

Hello all, I just officially joined though have been lurking for some time and appreciate all I've learned. I bought my 16 last November having owned an 06 until then. It has been flawless until now. I just drove my family approximately 550 miles to visit in-laws this past week. On the...
