    Thoughts on LC250 Remote Touring Capacities

    Not the first time I am wrong for sure. Scott Brady article & Toyota website both say 5037 though. What is it in truth?

    Thoughts on LC250 Remote Touring Capacities

    Ok, I have a math head-ache...GVWR is 6835, curb weight is 5037, which means a payload of 1798. What am I missing?

    Running 12V fridge/etc

    Have been thinking more about how a 2400w inverter (plus the engine recharge) could be used. Across many forums there are threads about cpap machines and heaters for overnight. Either of these could be used without having to add a second battery, or running the start battery down. You could run...

    New LC Differentials

    I just googled LX600 curb weight, and it did drop 440 lbs from the LX570, in part due to the use of an aluminum roof. So you nailed it!

    Running 12V fridge/etc

    Thanks Lenny for posting the owners manual & Sandroad for explaining the 12v battery and hybrid battery charging logic. Pages 511 - 518 cover the use of the 120V AC outlet. They use examples of a toaster, electric grill and external lights so they clearly intended for this to be used. It's...

    Running 12V fridge/etc

    Lots of pro/cons being discussed. The much higher fuel mileage is a plus compared to my 60/80/200. The “potential” to tap into the hybrid battery is intriguing. Interested to see what we all learn in the future.

    Running 12V fridge/etc

    Lots of great posts on here so far with insights/comments/specs on the new LC250/LX550/4R. One topic I haven't seen discussed is whether the hybrid battery can be used for anything besides running the hybrid motor. Since the LC250 comes stock with a good sized "second" battery, how does that...

    upTOP Overland Roof Rack

    @Jerz - thanks for posting this option. Two questions please: how did they run the weboost wire into the cab? Second, do you know if this rack can work on an LX570? Thankyou.

    New Michelin AT tire?

    Interesting thread. Especially the advocacy from @Pskhaat for the performance of the Defender LTX, despite the "gooberish" aesthetics. LOL. In the often recommended 275/70 R18 size, the Defender LTX is an E rated LT tire and a 125 load index. It's heavier than the popular Toyo AT3 at 57 vs...

    Weboost Antenna Cable Routing

    Hi all, I have a 2008 LX. I am installing a Weboost Drive Reach OTR. I decided to put the Booster into the bottom of the center console. The included antenna wire isn't long enough to run out the back hatch. Is there a clean way to run the wire to the roof via the door molding? The molding...

    TMPS sensors for second wheels set

    I have both a Subaru and LX with summer and winter tires. I hate the hassle of getting the TPMS sensors reprogrammed twice per year. The Launch tool looks like a great solution. I could swap tires and reprogram TPMS in my garage, on my schedule. However, one of the videos on how the tool works...

    Finding part numbers?

    Found this link on the FB LX570 group. https://partsouq.com/?fbclid=IwAR0D6EzRzZ9lfbZyWukyO4MmQ8uxHQTjKgHJQIUyEhAbgOy0Xx6cP_S2dls I put my VIN into it and the parts diagrams are pretty easy to navigate through. Especially nice that you can expand them to see better. Any feedback on this...

    Finding part numbers?

    Hi all, I am mid-way through base-lining our new to us 2008 LX 570. Brake fluid, PS fluid, diffs, transfer case, rotors & pads, drive-shafts. More to come in the next few weekends. As I go through this process I am finding that there are multiple missing fastners/etc. Nearest lexus dealer...

    Power steering flush, any tricks or tips?

    Going to do a PS flush as part of baselining my new to me 2008 LX. Manual says to use Dextron II or III. Local dealer says their shop only uses Toyota T-IV. I saw that referenced in an earlier post in this thread, but just want to make sure I use the right fluid. I can get Dextron III from...

    Winter tires on an LX570?

    Hi all. After decades on the 60 and 80 sections, it’s gratifying to have a similar experience here on this section. Cruiserheads helping each other out. The feed back to my question is pretty clear....if you live in a region with compact snow and ice in winter, then there is a good/better/best...
