    Looking for advice on a seized motor - LX470

    Pay for a compression test on the potential, 135K mile engine. Question I would want answers to: Is it a 2UZ-FE from a Land Cruiser? From a Sequoia? From a Tundra? Non-VVTi? At 135K has it already had its first timing belt. $1800 isn't a bad number for a relatively low mile engine.

    New shock choices

    PO installed Fox Performance Series 2.0's on mine and I've been very happy with them. The people I've asked say they are generally equivalent to the most recent OME offering.

    Packaging was good...there was a dent on the roof but not a biggie for me. I get the feeling it kind of flummoxed the UPS guys because a manager made a special trip in an otherwise empty regular/small UPS truck and needed me to help get it off the truck (178 lbs.) It was protected by: Plastic...

    I like the sentiment and the comment... The RTT is for the wife and kid, I'm too fat to get up and down that ladder and I can't sleep anywhere near my wife...she SNORES loud and can fall back to sleep after being woken in less than 10 seconds. I have a Gazelle T3X Overland Edition pop-up tent...
