    For Sale  Los Angeles: 1997 Lexus LX450

    Hey MUD - it is finally time to sell my FZJ80. This community was a huge help in my build and I would love to see it go to a good home. Only reason I am selling is because I barely drive it (more on that below). Some of you will remember the debacle that this rig created for me when I bought it...

    Steering Box Rebuild Recs in L.A.

    Hey guys, anyone know of a shop that can rebuild my steering box ('97 FZJ80) in Los Angeles area? I was planning to take it off myself and send to redhead but have been so busy I need to just bite the bullet and take it somewhere. Looking for a place where I just drop the cruiser off and they...

    Front Brake Caliper Replacement - Napa Eclipse NLA? Options?

    Do you remember where you sourced the OEM calipers from? when i did my research originally it was multiples more expensive than NAPA.

    Front Brake Caliper Replacement - Napa Eclipse NLA? Options?

    Did they fail and you had to replace them or just preference?

    Front Brake Caliper Replacement - Napa Eclipse NLA? Options?

    I just ordered the calipers from NAPA and they are the adaptive calipers (coated). Has anyone had any bad experiences with this brand that I should be concerned?

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    The second pic shows it on the 200mA scale and still shows zero though.

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    New and better multimeter it is then, gents. Thanks for the help. FWIW I followed george's instructions above (which is why it was originally on 10A setting) as that is what youtube told me to do. New multimeter it is though as i do think it may be blown somehow given no readings. Stay tuned...

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    No manual with this piece of junk unfortunately but I have tried it that way and it gives no readings. Pics attached. first two pics read zero with red wire in milliamp port. Third pic is when i switch back to the 10amp port (with door open). Thinking about this now, am i reading in amps in...

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    Thanks for the help, Jon. Here is an update: this morning battery was at 11.9volts but started up fine (seems to take 48 hours or more to deplete past the point of being able to start). Came home from work and started up again fine and drove it around for 40 minutes to charge battery. While on...

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    Question: Just went out and jumped the vehicle again. Started at 7 volts because i tried starting it so many times failing. After the jump the battery ran up to 13.8 volts as you would expect. I left the vehicle running for 15 minutes or so and shut it off and it restarted great. Let it run for...

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    No, did not engage alarm system. I am seeing some people elsewhere say there could be something wrong with grounds but i checked the main ones and they appear fine. Would a bad ground draw on the battery without showing a parasitic draw?

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    The battery is new and it likely was happening with the old battery as well so i think i can rule out the battery but will try this tonight. I have already tested for parasitic draw many times and there is none in several different ways of measurement. Regarding the alternator, I tested it by...

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    I replaced it because the old one would not hold a charge. Didnt test it too much given it was 3 years old but new one certainly improved the issue until this week. No recent maintenance in engine bay other than changing oil and I did connect a ground from the throttle sensor that was dangling...

    No Start, Low Voltage, No Parasitic Draw

    I have a brand new battery (2 weeks old) from Costco (24F 700 CCA) and my 97 LX450 didn't start after I left it for a couple days. Thinking it was my son that left a light on or something I jumped it and charged the battery while driving around a bit. After charging the battery, I tested for a...

    ARB twin compressor location

    Reviving this old thread. I recently saw someone added a second battery box to front passenger side of engine bay and then mounted their ARB dual compressor inside of the battery bxo. Has anyone ever done this and perhaps have general instructions for doing so properly?
