need a new cat and associated gaskets, any advice? should I just grab a 200 dollar amazon deal and get the exhaust shop to install? or should I pay a bit more and get one with corresponding flanges and dig in?

Hey team, 97 lx450 , I’ve read thru many of the rad posts and am looking for any news, I’ve a slow steady leak in the oem rad. Replacing with either a dense, or other recommended brand. Please advise, current or rece results with csf? Other preferably all metal tanks? I live in Canada, warm in...
I noticed a few days ago my oem belts where near end of life and have ordered ome replacements, however they failed yesterday and I won’t have the oem for a few days, is there a belt from another vehicle that fits as a stop gap? Small town Canada can mean a challenge

Looking for the electrical drawings for a 97 lx, still chasing a fault between my battery and ecu, I’ve searched and have not found a emailable copy, any out there?

I’m back! With my recurr8ng electrical woes, 97 lx450. Roughly a year ago my truck cut out, with the help of Kevin (RIP) I tracked that problem down to the grey plug powering the ecu near the head, hardwired that and no problems for a year. Two days ago same. Problem reoccurs so I redid one of...
my 97 lx has a strange evolving behaviour, a little back story.
Some ten yrs ago I took the truck to a local shop to have the starter contacts done ( mistake) upon disconnecting the battery the alarm went off and in his frustration the mechanic randomly pulled wires until the alarm stopped. Over...
hi, I've been running durotracs happily in very snowy BC Canada, thinking of a narrower stud able tire, looking at a 35, anything in a 16 rim, or a 17?
