I was driving Roostah (96 LX450) out to Big Bend National Park when after fueling up in Junction the rig began making a knocking sound that replicated an HD engine. I am taking the rig in to a trusted LC mechanic to evaluate damage in April.
I am asking you that have been through a rebuild...
I am planning taking my grandkids in March when they have spring break. Do you or anyone on this post know of good camp sites with hiking trails, fishing and close trails I can take the rig on?
I can tell you this is a very fair price for this rig. I purchased a 96 LX450 for $5k and no rust from NM. Sound mechanically, needed paint and I have begun some of my customization in the drive train. so far have sunk around $15K including paint to bring the rig back to it's beautiful glory.
had a similar experience. found a broken exhaust hanger which allowed the exhaust pipe into a position at which the drive shaft was hitting the exhaust pipe. check it out, $15 fix.
