Slightly used SPC Upper Control Arms (UCAs) for 200 Series Cruiser. Slee installed these on my '10 a few years ago. They were on for less than a year (~4k miles), when I decided to do the Tundra Front-End conversion. I replaced them with the same UCA, but for Tundra.
Stored for the last few...
Congrats on your LX! Wheel width does not change ET (offset)... width does effect backspacing calcs.
RE 9"vs9.5"/+20vs+30... Honestly you will be fine with any of the above. I would concentrate on finding a wheel you like (weight, maybe hub-centric bore, maybe offset preference). The 9" is...
I looked up my old order from 2018 and it does appear they were E-rated. They were purchased through discount tire, but trying that part number gave a broken link.
Can't believe the tire went up 100% in price in 5 years!
That is a pretty car! I like the detail around the fenders and those wheels look great!
Unfortunately, I need something a bit more practical for a 15 year old boy. Although that would be a pretty sweet first car!
A couple people have asked what the original build specs were... Apparently Toyota removed their VIN Search tool, so here is a hardcopy of the original MSRP.
Had a few to dig into this... according to the gobi site specs, the Stealth Rack's total added height is 6.5". I looked at Prinsu and their 200 series rack is 3.5". So, if you replaced the Gobi w Prinsu, you'd have 1" to spare.
With the rack it sits at 81" at the highest point. I know this because my garage opening is exactly 7'-0... and when I have my 1-up rack on the top, it sometimes just kisses the weather stripping. 1-up carrier is 2.5" and the stripping is about a half inch. I drove it back to the garage...
Thank you for the kind words. I have worked with various shops in the Denver Metro including Slee, RSG Off Road and Filthy Motor Sports. Here is a link to the forum member who restores 100s and did the baselining work.
Apologies, I do not. Honestly, I never thought to ask. The first one happened 10/10. The second 1/11. This info was pulled from carfax, so I don't have any additional details.
I purchased the car from the Toyota dealer who had been maintaining it for years. The dealership chose to sell it...
I believe it is just the dome lights that cause issues.
If you want to experiment try this:
Use the “Door” button on the overhead console by the sun glasses holder. This will temporarily disable your dome lights. If this fixes it then you know the issue. I tried this and my symptoms...
Sadly, yes. I have not heard of anyone replacing a circuit board. I ended up going the Chinese-knockoff route, using a parts house out of CA so I could return if they didn't work. The lights have worked fine for over a year now, but the quality is definitely not OEM (weight significantly...
The 2-piece taillight assembly is a combination of bulbs and circuit boards. It depends on which part is out. If the entire thing is out, it is possibly not an issue with tail light but possibly upstream; plug, fuse or something else.
No. The non-nav dash doesn't have a DVD screen, so no button. I was making the assumption that a new DVD-enabled head unit would have outputs that could be hooked up to the existing rear screen wiring. You'd have to study the wiring diagrams to confirm. If the hinge is fully automatic (can't...
