Currently have this truck listed For Sale as-is, with a blown engine.
Parting out is another option I have to consider though. Probably wouldn’t take too many key parts and I’d have my $2,500 asking price. Especially since it is still in my mechanic’s lot.
Let me know what you are interested...
Engine overheated to the point of stall. Truck was just over 200k miles.
I have the original 16" wheels, and 18" Tundra wheels. Both are included. Weatherguard mats front & back.
Photos were taken at the mechanic's storage yard, but I have more.
Serious inquiries only
VIN: Will Update...
Thanks to all for the advice, thoughts, and prayers. This site is such a tremendous resource.
Here is where I am on this project. I "think" I have decided to let her go. There is a higher mileage 2008 that has presented itself to me, and I think I might just have to do it.
I drove to the...
Decision has been made. I've pretty much decided to get this one running again.
Now, considering the parts required for a timing belt change & a new engine swap, what parts do I go ahead and source to get all of this done? I'd like to put together a list for getting this all totalled up...
My initial thoughts too, but I had already replaced those about 4 years ago. Not sure at this point of the autopsy results other than coolong system. I just got the news yesterday afternoon.
It was overdue for timing belt service and parts change too, so I'm not sure if that could have played...
Current mileage is 209k.
Parting out scares me a little, but I do have the space & time.
What would be the upside? What are the most valuable pieces I could expect to sell?
Dealing with the public, the shipping, etc., all present a new list of challenges. A bit overwhelmed at the moment...
I have decided to start over.
A new-to-me, "used engine" + Labor to swap + remaining projects that were slated for this truck just doesn't add up. I will search for another comparable Land Cruiser.
Now, what to do with my dead soldier? Salvage yard?
Open to creative suggestions. Located...
Does anyone know where to source one in "TAN w LIGHTER" wood? I searched high & low for the 97-02 steering wheels in lighter color codes. All that I see some to be the darker versions. Lots to choose from if I had a year model 2003 & earlier.

I know there are a million threads on what people have done to their suspension regarding lifts, shocks, tires, etc., but what is the most current and for the average guy? If this is a duplication, then please accept my apologies.
I'm not looking for a rock crawler or...
From my '02 LX470.
My price is $500 for the set.
16" OEM
I am located in Pawleys Island, SC 29585. (Between Myrtle Beach & Charleston)
I do not want to ship. Would really prefer local pickup. If it must ship, then buyer must arrange the shipping, etc.
These wheels / rims are in...
SUCCESS!!
I did confirm that the key would NOT turn, but the shift was still in P. I opened the little transmission shifter lock on the right, moved the shifter up and down the dial a few times, then voila!............The old girl jumped back to life. Thanks guys!
Out of curiosity, what is...
I am enthused by the simplicity of your response. I know the shifter was in P, but maybe if I jiggled it, something may come free.
I will try it and I really hope the solution is that minor.
I already sprayed some Goof Off in there. #1 I was pissed & desperate. #2 I knew that it would at...
What to do? I used my key as a knife to open a package that came in the mail. I know I'm not the only person to do this.
Later I tried to crank my LX and noticed my key was tight in the ignition slot. Had a little bit of the mailing label from the package that had hung on to the key. Got...
