A talk show in Denver had a local transmission tech legend - Ron from AAfordable. He was asked what the best tranny is and of course he said the one one in the 80 which he said it also came in some 4 runners. He said it was like putting a dump truck tranny in an automobile. Also said he is glad...
Used about 3,000 miles then put in storage.
The 850s are fronts, 863s are rears.
Perfect condition, in OME boxes. No problems. These are the best upgrade you can make to your cruiser. They provide about 3 inches lift if I remember correctly. They are vintage about 8 years old.
$115 for each...

I drove thru a bad snowstorm last night and the cruiser was flawless. When I got to some deeper snow of about 1 foot It just cruised on thru with not even a hint of slipping
The new winter wiper blades worked very well. They are the Michelins that can be used year round.
I got a new spare key for my 04 and need to find a dealer knowledgeable enough to program. I tried Boulder Toyota.
(Need to put in a good word for them, They have done excellent work for me in the past and have sided with me on borderline warranty claims. They worked on it for an hour and a...
A toyota XM satelite radio tuner for Landcruiser and Lexus 100 series. I think this is for 07+08, but it may be for 05-? Toyota part # 86100-0w140. I think you also need a fit kit for install.
This tuner allows you to install to receive XM radio thru the factory radio. This means no exposed...
I just "won" a Toyota part # 86100-0W140 which is a factory XM tuner for LC and LX. This is supposed to install and work thru the factory radio. Anyone have one of these? I also see Toy sells a "fit kit" Anyone know how this installs? thanks,
Noticing strange behavior on downhills when braking, I read on a Lexus site that the newer Toyota's have automatic downshifting which does not upshift until you accelerate. Anyone know about this? I will start watching the tach for clues.

My 04 has horrible reception both AM and FM. It is the JBL with stack CD loader in console. Has anyone else had this? I would like to find out if it is an antena issue or if they all do this. I need to find out if anyone makes a signal booster and if it works or not.

In researching the brake assist system I learned that it has a memory that learns your braking habits then uses the info to determine if you are in a emergency braking situation and activates. I just got my 04 and would like to begin the memory again because my driving is different than the...
I checked out a 04 I am buying and found the brake light stays on constantly. Seems to brake ok, pads may need replacement. Can warn pads activate warning lamp? It has 90k miles and was from Arkansas.
