Was the rear air suspension on the GX470’s an option or standard equipment?
I ran across a very much stock 2005 GX470 and there’s no air/suspension control panel. Just one of those small pockets. From talking to the owner, they didn’t have any idea. Of course, they’re not the original owners...
I had a 100 years ago (2000 LC) which was great. Now I’m looking to get back into one.
My usage would be a daily driver 90% of the time (usually 5-6k miles per year). Then family camp trips, which would typically be fine in a stock rig with minor mods like roof rack and rear storage.
But a...
I’m currently looking for a new vehicle for my family of 5 and a dog. I considered getting another LC, but they’re too small.
I currently have a full-size truck, but it’s a bit too long for some of the spots we like to go to.
Typical usage will be for a weekend camp out with the family. And...
I’m not sure what this is called. The part that screws into the fitting on the radiator/oil cooler, which the hose then connects to.
I discovered that I was getting low on coolant despite having topped it off recently. I see this has been leaking for some time. It was very loose so I tightened...
I don’t always carry a spare XC axle. So I am looking for trail fix options if I happen to bust an axle.
Unfortunately, one can’t simply remove the axle and drive home. Diff must be plugged and axle must be in place to keep the hub bearings in place.
I was thinking I could DIY a kit from a...
Just a quick question. Were the "V8" and "Toyota" emblems ever placed on the tailgate rather than the hatch? I am interested in a 100 for sale locally. I'm assuming that it was involved in an accident. But just making sure before I drive down to take a look. Bumper looks askew as well. Thanks.
Sold my 100 a while back. Now I'm looking to get another, but with the wife's van in the garage, a 4Runner would fit much better. I've never owned a 4th Gen and wonder if I'll be happy with it. From what I see, I don't foresee any issues. I've got 2 kids, who will fit no problem in either. I...
:( SOLD!
Selling my 2000 Land Cruiser. 162,500 miles. Silver with grey interior. Great condition. No wrecks, all body panels are original with the VIN tags. All service is up-to-date. Timing belt changed at 90k miles, along with all drivetrain fluids. Tires are 285/75/16 BFG KO's...
Haven't found anything online. Itching for a truck again and was wondering if anyone knew anything about the 2015 Tacoma's. If there will be major changes, I think I will wait to purchase. With GM stepping up with a diesel mid-size pick up, it will be interesting to see how Toyota responds...
Any interest in a group buy? I just a noticed ticking sound coming from the engine bay, and I think it's the header(s). I am unsure what the price will be, but can't imagine it being too much more than the previous group buys. Please post up if interested. Thanks.
I'm looking to pick up an ARB awning. Trying to decide between the 2000 and 2500. Price is negligiable between the two. Any reason NOT to get the bigger one? Seems that the extra 1.7' of shade would offset any potential negatives of the longer length.
After installing Pfran's interior LED's a little while ago, I thought about adding ambient lighting as well. My wife's car has it, which is just a single blue LED that shines down on the center console. I like the extra visibility, especially at night, although I would prefer red instead of...
I've never been down to Hole in the Rock before. Just curious what type of mods I would need. I've got a 100-series LC with 33's. I'll be installing sliders before the trip. The front torsion bars have been raised to about 1" over stock. Watching some videos on YouTube, I *think* this will...
Roof rack mounting
I'm getting a Megawarrior and wanted to see what you guys thought about the mounting options. Currently, I have a factory rack/crossbars, but I've also got Yakima crossbars mounted to the factory rails. Does it make any difference how I mount this?
I would prefer to...
Haven't had an oil analysis done on the LC, so last oil change, sent it into Blackstone (good people).
Background: Of the 7,300 miles, approximately 3,000 of it was road trips. The rest was stop-n-go in-town miles. Despite this, the results were favorable and better than my old Tacoma's...
Got a CEL last week. P0135 (Driver's side front sensor). I was going to order the sensors via Amazon. There are two part numbers:
234-4169 (Front specific, OE replacement)
234-4209 (Universal front)
Not much price difference between the two (~$10?). What is the difference between the...
Last week, took a cold trip to Wyoming (in single digits and in negatives). Hit the squirter and nothing. Thought I'd run out of fluid so topped it off, and still nothing. Luckily, I didn't need to use the fluid after that, but for future reference, what can be done to prevent this?
I will say...
