My parents destroyed my antenna in a car wash. Do I just need to buy the antenna? Or are any other parts involved? Is this a hard job to do yourself? I found part number 86337-60151. Do I need any other parts? Thanks!

Has anyone figured this out? I'm wondering if the gap is caused by a loose latch mechanism in the door?

I bought a 2nd LX470 with slightly less miles recently. It came with a missing hub cap. I bought an OEM one off of eBay. About a week later, the same hub cap was gone! Has anyone had any similar issues? I'm wondering if I should place a few beads of caulking on there along with the retaining...

Yesterday I replaced a lower control arm on my 2004 LX470. It was a beat of a job for the noob. Had no idea what I was doing, but I got the job done after about 4 hours! One thing I didn't understand was that I had to loosen the torsion bar to get the last two bolts off the control arm. I...

Sorry, it's front driver's side.

I'm in need of some new Lower Control Arm Bushings on my front driver's side. I see Amazon sells the whole arm with bushings for about $100. I've read here that some people buy just the bushing for $100. Should I go with the aftermarket arm and bushing for $100? Do just the bushings for $100...

200 is 2.4" longer than the 100.

I'd go for #3. Lots of important upgrades in 2004.

BTW, I'm in California and haven't had a chance to get into the snow. The previous owner gave me a set of chains, and I don't know if I'll ever need them. I'd imagine the 100's do pretty well in the snow without.

Wow that's really good to hear.

I've been wondering what I will do when my cruiser dies, assuming it ever dies. Currently going strong with 230k. Looking at the new cruisers, I think I'd opt for a new 4Runner as a replacement to my 100 series instead of a 200. Or maybe I'll track down a super low mileage 100 :) Any thoughts...

Do any of you use chains? If so, when do you use them?

I don't think so, but why buy one when you can buy 5 for less? 5x GENUINE OEM TOYOTA TUNDRA COIL PACK 90919-02249 LEXUS LX470 LAND CRUISER

I only know that VGRS is related to steering so I don't know if it's working or not. However, I just took it on another drive and once I got up to highway speeds the light went off. If it comes back, I'll come back for more advice...

My wife said it took her 3 times to start our 2004 LX470 yesterday. She said the VGRS light came on on her way home and then it went off. I suspected maybe it was due to the heat or a bad battery. Today I had a friend check the battery and it was "weak" so I replaced it. After the battery...
