    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    So here it is a few year after the last post in this thread and I am dead in the water with no transmission on my 2000 LX. On the highway 75mph, no vibration, no shake, nothing just the engine Revs went crazy has in neutral and applying the gas! Transmission oil doesn't smell, no residue in it...

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    There's no transmission fluid anywhere (the fluid on my shots is gear oil from Tcase) I have check from front to back and there's not a drop or a sign of any leaks. The trans cooler is fine as well, I mean it's dirty but no cracks, no leaks nothing. The hoses to and from it are tight and dry...

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    no it was dry for sure. that fluid is Tcase 100% because it's glistening around it and I have had that before. this time it's just a lot. BUT the tCase doesn't and didn't make any noise like major failure or anything....

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    I did bump a few things for sure.... it was a fun trip.....There's been no noise of anything breaking down or fracturing or anything like that.

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    I am trying to check all I can but nothing jumps at me. I took the plug out of the Transmission pan but other than some sparkles NOTHING that indicates major carnage. I know I should the take the pan off and inspect magnets in the case but when I do that i need a new filter and redo the gasket...

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    So I am not seeing a lot of power steering loss. What I know is that we towed the rig while in neutral (both tranny and transfer case) and I do know both the input and output shafts seal on my Tcase are leaking and I think that's what the fluid is. I need to open the Tcase plug hole and refill...

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    unfortunately it's not looking that it's going to be that easy. I am not seeing any fluids anywhere even though I added 2 full quarts and the level is indicating like 2 inches above max.

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    I pulled the plastic cover and cannot see a single leak from the forward part of the engine where the transmission cooler is or the hoses. I added 2 full quarts of fluid in the hope I would catch some leaks but NOTHING at all. Front diff engages, Tcase engages the drive shafts etc..... I am...

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    if the leak is from there and the transmission is not longer working evidently, I still need a new one. I have read some conflicting stories on various sources whereby the 98 version doesn't fit the 2000 vehicles but here on Mud, which to me is the better source of truth and experience, everyone...

    2000 LX470 Transmission Failure

    Ok so 30 miles from Albuquerque 3 days ago my 2000 LX tranny failed me on the way home to New Orleans.... that was after a great trip overlanding in Utah so I am not THAT mad but now I need to fix it. I just started to read up on all that. I had maybe a small vibration that I was not used to but...

    Door Lock Actuator Replacement

    thanks for some valuable info and as it turns out my actuators started to give me signs of failure today (super hot day in New Orleans!) and so I am starting to gear up to do this. I have a 2000 LX470 and was wondering if anyone knows which motors are needed for this? the ones with the brass...

    Milin 622 WH Portable Power Cube - Power everything all at once? Great alternative to fixed auxiliary battery to power small and medium accessories?

    Quick little video on my new Portable Power Source/Cube. Side comment here, I am not sure why people call these a Solar Power Generator? I guess because you can recharge it via solar panel... To me it's just a big multi input source power bank. Anyway, I go in some details of why I chose this...

    Dissent Off-Road no cut rear modular bumper install videos

    The bumper is tapered toward the back and so i cut back of the pinch weld toward the back but you make a keen and accurate observation and probably you are correct! However as you can see on the photos its not a huge deal to not cut it there. I guess at absolute full articulation (assuming it...
