Appreciate the replies everyone. Once I have time I'm going to pull the alarm out by the root. For now, I've just disabled the horn (and hazard signals) by pulling out the appropriate fuse in the engine fuse box. Very short term fix, I hope.
Is there a way to just turn the alarm off or simply disconnect it? We're hauling kids all over the place this week and I don't have time to rip anything out. However, I also don't want to keep getting woken up at 4 AM.
Two nights ago my alarm started going off at approx 4 AM. I went outside to check things out, locked my car and had no more problems. (I never lock my car at night)
Before going to bed last night I made sure to lock the car. This morning (5 AM) the horn started beeping again. Not necessarily...
Hey guys - my 96 lx450 is throwing a P1709 with check engine light on.
1. I know there are one or two threads on this in the forum, but they never seemed to be fully resolved. Or maybe I'm too dumb to understand how it was resolved? :)
2. I've checked the shifter under the rig and it's not...
Looks like I over analyzed this. Once all screws were re-tightened the seat is no longer rocking. Will be on the lookout for a salvage motor/track just in case I need it in the future. :) Thanks!
Blue circle is where the bushing is worn out and you can feel the seat moving back and forth. Red are the end stops that can't be removed. Maybe it's necessary to replace the entire splined shaft?
1996 LX450 - I've got a slight rock forward and back in my driver side seat. (Usually only notice it when coming to a stop and then accelerating.)
As far as I can tell this isn't the gear/cap fix. Picture is attached. Where the shaft goes through there should be a plastic bushing that holds...
I recently sold my FJ60 for a 96 LX450 and the reliability and comfort of the 80 series is hard to beat. But, it will never turn heads the way that a nice 60 series does on the road.
Great questions and thanks for your response - it's my daily driver, so an all terrain tire will make most sense. I'll be modding it slowly over time, so right now I'm not sure exactly where it's headed. :) I'm expecting around 1.5k-2k re: budget.
I recently sold my 85 FJ60 and moved into a 96 LX450, which is more family friendly. :)
I'm beginning the process of modding my 80 (my 60 was stock by choice) and I'd like your advice.
A lift, new tires and shocks will be first on the agenda. Planning on a 2 inch with 35's. Any specific...
Looking for the above with minimal to no rust and decent mileage. (170k and below)
Having a tough time finding anything decent in this category in my home state of NC and surrounding area.
Just sold my 85 FJ60 and looking for a more comfortable ride! :)
Considering buying this 02 Landcruiser, but would love yalls opinion on the undercarriage rust. No issues in door jams or rear window.
Any blink thoughts? Huge red flags?
Thy are asking 10k and it has 168k miles.
8K or best offer. Located in Charlotte, NC.
Second owner - owned for two years and had an absolute blast with it. Moving on from it because of practicality reasons. Young father of four now, you know the drill.
Runs well on the road, smooth and straight. Engine will likely need some check up...
