    AHC Inop after fluid change 2007 lx C1751 and C1762

    I second the advice to use the active test to force the pump to run to get it primed after completely flushing. Also, it helps if you do this in temperatures above freezing. Cold weather can make the system sluggish. Once you get the pump primed, try to raise the vehicle to N. It might take a...

    SPACE Trailer Long Term Review

    On the luv handles, they are bolted to the sheet metal at four locations, four bolts in each mounting point. No internal reinforcement, but the structure makes them plenty stable. I've used them to strap stuff on. I would note that they are too big around for the hooks on most ratchet straps, so...

    SPACE Trailer Long Term Review

    All in all the SPACE has been great for us. It keeps stuff dry and basically dust free. I drag it over mild to medium offroad trails with ease. Every once in awhile the little tongue stand will bang on a rock and I just don't worry about it. I keep it outside over the winter in northwestern...

    SPACE Trailer Long Term Review

    I said it holds a ton of stuff... not literally though. One time I took the top off and went to get a load of gravel. I didn't really think it through and bought a yard. As soon as the loader dumped the gravel in I realized I may have overdone it for my little trailer. These trailers have a...

    SPACE Trailer Long Term Review

    It holds a ton of stuff and makes organizing really easy. One year on a trek from MT to CA my father in law told me he had some spare tools if I wanted them. Ended up with a table saw, sliding compound miter saw with stand, worm drive circular saw, big drill, and some other stuff. I wouldn’t...

    SPACE Trailer Long Term Review

    The trailer served us well on that first road trip and several shorter trips in 2016 before we bought a 2012 Tacoma in 2017. The LowRider model is exactly the same as the HighRider, the axle is just on top of the leaf springs to make it lower. When we got the Taco I flipped it to below the leaf...

    SPACE Trailer Long Term Review

    haven't seen a whole lot of references to SPACE Trailers and even fewer actual owners on mud, so I thought I'd share my experience. We purchased ours back in 2016 when we were rocking a Subaru Outback and needed more room to haul stuff on extended road trips that we like to take. We bought the...

    AHC Inop after fluid change 2007 lx C1751 and C1762

    Old thread but posting in case others are in this situation. Just another obvious thing to check based on my first time flushing the system on my '98 LX - Make sure you're not getting any leakage at the bleeders after you're done with the bleeding process. I bled (shearing off accumulator...

    AHC Accumulator Bleed Valve -- broke off.

    Bled my AHC and damned if this didn't happen to me too. I did the same as others here and bled the four corners and moved on. At first on testing the system I thought I was screwed. It took forever to raise from L to N. Then just kept blinking at me from N to H. I inspected things. No leakage at...

    Ebay Chinese Glass Headlights?

    Looks like I'm looking at about $750 shipped for the LX OEM - ouch. Probably good advice on the Chinese ones though. I'll see how these cracked ones do with some clear film over the holes once it gets cold and wet.

    New key shell from YotaMD. Allowed me to break the jb weld off the old one and replace the battery. Grabbed another blank from carandtruckremotes.com, had it cut at Ace Hardware and self programmed. Now have 2 working remote keys.

    Drank the koolaid - 23 year "new" LX470

    Cobbled together this parking brake button from an 8mm socket, two M4 nuts epoxied into it, a stainless finishing washer, and bike bottle cage bolt. Good to have a working E-brake again.

    Kliers, thanks for the tip. Both my glass lenses have rock holes in them so it's going to happen sometime.

    Drank the koolaid - 23 year "new" LX470

    Work done since my last update: Bled brakes. Took care of squishy brake pedal slow to return. Replaced spark plugs and cleaned MAF sensor. Resulted in misfires that I tracked down. See post. Adjusted AHC height sensors and torsion bars. Lifted a small amount and leveled front to back. Adjusted...
