I have read thread after thread and need to have my windshield gasket replaced - properly. Can anyone recommend a place in the Knoxville- Johnson City area?
I have found a suitable 2005 Toyota 4Runner that I would like to purchase as a 2nd truck that is located in Canada. I have browsed the border crossing information but am still unsure how smoothly it will go. Since you guys are collectively the smartest folks I "know" when dealing with all things...
I have spent about 3/4 of my "free" time at work trying to find the link to renew my Silverstar. Will someone please direct me as to where to find this?
Best,

I am going to add air bags to my rear TJM 50mm progressive springs in the rear of my LX. Is there a real difference in the two ( Air Lift/Firestone) other than price? Anyone out there running one or the other that can help me decide which will be a better choice for me? Here is the link from...
Lexuspartsnow.com just sent me a message that the LX seat cushions have been discontinued and they cancelled my order. I am getting ready to install Shane's leather and would really like to source new cushions to replace the ones in there while I have everything apart. Anyone have a clue as to...
What search terms should I use to try to trouble shoot the following:
Snowed in East Tn today and I found myself in a situation where I needed to put the LC in lo. I put the truck in "N" and then shifted into "Lo"...no dash lights alerted me that I was actually in Lo. Normally I get the 4...
I spent all day yesterday reading through battery threads including Cary's awesome battery breakdown/explanation. Since my Sears store ( and appears to be all Sears stores) and no longer carrying the 34R Platinum, I decided I would try out the Duracell line since my Sam's Club seems to offer...
What has your 80 towed? Weight and distance? What set-up are you towing with?
Mine tows a Malibu Wakesetter from time to time and this past weekend, pulled a farm trailer filled with ugly holiday attire in the local parade!
1997 LX450 with 170K on the clock. I have tackled most PM and think I am ready to go on to the next step. I want to keep as much of the Caddy ride in the LX as is reasonable, but I want her to be competent in the situations that she finds herself off the beaten path. This mostly consists of...
Trying to thin the herd so I can do some things to the LC that I have been wanting to do. I have it listed on my local - Johnson City, TN - craigslist. I thought I would throw it up here as well.

I would let my 75 yo Mom and 78 yo Dad get...
I installed a trailer brake unit on my LX and lost my cruise control (turns on, but light just flashes - it will not set). Since I am no longer hauling the camper with the LX, I would like to get my cruise control back. I tried simply undoing what I had done to install - nada; still just...
My search turned up information that was about a year old. It seemed, from the threads I read, that most have switched from Optima as their go to battery over to Die Hard Platinum. A year later, is this still the case? I have to put a battery in the LX this week and want to do this once...
It looks like I am going to keep my LX and use it, not only for my DD, but as my only vehicle sans the motorcycle. I had thoughts of letting her go and getting something that might pull/haul a load better than she can, but I do love the truck and just don't want to sell her! I regularly tow a...
I have a '97 LX, locked, with a bit under 157k. I have done PM along with new rad, phh, 100 series rotors/pads (front). It throws the elusive p0135/401 codes which I have not chased down. I really DO love my truck (except when the gas pump shuts off at $75 and it is not full), but i find that...
I have been away for awhile; the truck has been running well and I found that I got myself worked up and stressed when reading the board everyday! I waited daily for my head gasket to blow! I had to take a break.
Today, I threw a P0305 then a flashing check engine light with a P0306. I...
I always like to put the truck in low when I am pulling the boat up the ramp. Ramps in the South East tend to be steep due to TVAs lake level fluctuations. When I went to put the LX in low the other day, she shifted fine, but no dash light. Humm....I went back to N and tried again. Still...
Went looking for 80 parts; found a 60. I took pix on my cell phone. Interior with exception of headliner, rear mirror, and dash is gone. I am not sure if it is a cash for clunker car or not. It is close enough to home that I am willing to pick specific parts if anyone needs me to. Exterior...
1997 LX 450
148k
Non-working, or not still installed, factory alarm (I bought the truck this way)
When I try to unlock all the doors via turning the key in the driver's door 2x, about 3/4 of the time my rear driver's side door does not unlock. I have found on a few occasions that when I...
I have a 1997 LX450 with 145k. What are the advantages and disadvantages of having/not having catalytic converters sans emmission issues? I have access to the tools I need to remove the cats if I want to. Would one have to do anything more to the LX other than chopping them out and fabbing and...
