Cross posting here if anyone is looking for a 200 series. Would consider an 80 series in partial trade. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/san-diego-ca-2013-land-cruiser-silver-black-88k-miles.1365184/#post-16022073

Not a huge fan of the Highlanders to begin with, don't need the added complexity of AWD, and being a limited I assume it's v6 and leather, which I don't care for. But you can always send me a pic and a few details and I'll take a look.

I have had a few people ask about a possible trade. Some things I would consider for a partial trade: Locked 80 series LC/LX, no rust. Prefer 40th/CE but would consider any 93-97 in good condition without a ton of miles. Close to stock as...

Yeah it’s a 2. Matches the full VIN on the carfax too.

Are you sure it's the correct VIN? Should the "2" be a "1"? I.e. change the AJ2D to AJ1D? I don't know what this digit represents but my 2013 has a 1 in that position.

@sdnative Thank you! It worked. You end up cutting the sleeve at the base and slide it up the chain so you can angle it in. Worked perfectly and only burned up one dremel disc! ;)

I believe the rock warrior guys have the same issue and have to trim the mechanism somehow. Search rock warrior spare wheel mod or similar

Here is my estimate for radiator and valley plate from a few years ago (2020?)

Toyota dealer service and parts departments have the freedom to charge whatever market conditions will bear. 25 miles in another direction/zip code might be household net worth of over $1million. That market will bear more for service and parts...

Such a beautiful cruiser. Very tasteful. GLWS.

I have finally come to the decision to sell my 200 series Land Cruiser. It is primarily the family road trip vehicle and camping rig. We usually take one of two trips a year, but due to kids getting older and house projects it doesn't get the...

Viofo has saved my bacon a few times now. I have one in every vehicle. Started with the A119 years ago, then the A129 Duo, and lately the A229 Plus in two vehicles. I have the A139 3CH in the LC (only using F/R though), it's ok not the best. The...

In the carpool lane, no less...🤐

Smoke'em if you got em.... All the German cars suck after 50k, if you're lucky. The Square trucks however, holds true to their roots. Almost more iconic than a land cruiser. Sickening on the modern day price, but nothing like possessing a...

G wagons are nice for sure. Not sure I want to pay the maintenance though.

^^^ Best of luck. G63.

Not sure yet. Something 4wd for off road adventures that the kids can drive as well. Maybe an older 4runner, gx, tacoma or tundra.

I picked up this guidebook a few years ago at the recommendation of another member.

I am considering selling my 2013 LC. ~90k miles, tasteful mods (see sig). Garage kept, very well maintained. Ping me if interested.
