    Bj73 & 33x10.5x15” inch tires?

    Hey all, Does anyone have any insights on a 3bii (1990 bj73) having enough power to push 33x10.5x15 tires? I’m at altitude, and I know that it won’t help. But is that too big of a tire in general, for the power of a 3bii? Or could I run it without too much issue? Thanks! Abe

    Edit: now massive belt squeal- Belt tensioner replacement? 2011 460

    Hey all, Can the belt tensioner on a 2011 be replaced without removing the radiator & fan & everything, or is it a more complicated job? Not sure if it is a lot of work, or if I just haven’t figured out the magic moves yet. Thanks! Abe

    Coolant valley leak questions? Sort of stuck at Cruise Moab

    Hey all, We’ve got our 2011 go 460 at Cruise Moab, and we are losing coolant. I replaced the radiator last summer, so I’m just guessing coolant valley leak. But I don’t know for sure. Is there any way to confirm without just tearing things apart? Also is it safe to drive back to boulder...

    Radiator replacement write up?

    Hey there, Does anyone know if a great write up for a 2011 radiator replacement? The best I’ve found is one on club lexus forums, but it doesn’t specify a few things, and I don’t want to screw anything up. For instance, it talks about removing an upper & lower bumper cover. Is this the actual...
