    Motion X-GPS

    Anyone have a link to a decent discussion on Motion X? I swear I'm not usually tech simple, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to use an offline downloaded map. I can download a map, apparently successfully, but cannot come up with a good way to test it. If I disable the wifi and...

    Dumb shock question

    No luck on searching, here or on the rest of the interwebs. How many washers and bushings go on the top of traditional shocks? For this purpose I'm pretty sure OME and OEM are the same. The other question is are all four corners the same? From the top, 1. Upper Nut 2. Flat Washer 3...

    stripped a steering line bolt

    Small leak of PS fluid, so with some extra time today I decide to get under there and take a look. It appeared that when I installed my new rack a few months ago, I didn't tighten the steering line bolt enough. I mean the one that has a separate "banjo style" bolt, not the one where the bolt is...

    Headlight / taillight wiring

    Electrical geniuses, I have a challenge for you. I considered moving my turn signal to the corner bulbs next to the headlights. For those who are unaware, the LX turn signal shares the fog light housing on the bumper. So, a while back I just clipped and switched the wires. Worked ok, had the...

    Speed Bleeder help

    I'm flushing my brake fluid. For probably the first time ever. In fact, after looking at the old fluid its amazing my brakes work at all. I see a master cylinder rebuild in my future... More urgently, I attempted to switch my factory bleeders with speed bleeders. Great idea right? Wrong...

    Coolant flush

    FSM procedure is not complicated, drain the coolant, rinse, refill. Forgive the dumb question, but after you refill it you're supposed to burp the system by opening the "heater water valve". Anyone have a diagram that shows where this is? I'll take a good description or a picture. Or maybe...

    dumb shock replacement question

    Feel free to chastise me if the answer to this is in FAQ or searchable, but I was not able to find it. On a 98 LX, with AHC removed and an OME Medium lift, will shocks that are sized for a stock 98 cruiser fit? The challenge is that one of my front shocks is worn out, and I would like to...

    ID this part?

    Anyone know if this is factory, and if so what it is? My search-fu is failing me both here and through my FSM. Thanks in advance.

    Raptor Liner

    My 98 runs amazingly well for having over 250K on the clock. While it is relegated to mostly mall crawling these days, over its life it has not been babied. A decade and a half of Texas summers and South Dakota winters were taking their toll on the paint. Oxidation was showing on the hood and...

    US Chemical Defender Pro experience?

    I'm going to be bedlining my 100 series. There's 267K miles on it, it lives outside in Dallas, and my clear coat is oxidizing/flaking. After a foray into the wrap world, I've decided that bedliner is the way to go. I'm fairly familiar with the bed liner options out there, but there's one...

    Heat sensitive front end squeak?

    I would love to hear some theories on this one. Problem: a squeak coming from the front end. When it occurs: only when its hot (90deg F+), and only over small bumps (expansion joints, small imperfections in the road, etc) When it doesn't occur: over larger bumps (speedbumps), or on flat...

    OHV permits

    CO land cruisers: Greetings, I'll be visiting my Father-In-Law's home in Crested Butte around 4th of July. I'll be doing some extremely light and tame wheeling (new baby will likely be in the car), and Paradise Divide will probably be the most aggressive road I travel. What's the deal with OHV...

    vent louvre removal

    I searched, googled, looked in the service manual. Maybe no one does this, or it's so obvious to the average person that it doesn't need to be written down. But, how do you pop out the vent louvres on the rear pillars? They are the plastic pieces in the body, about a foot above your...

    CVBoot degradation possible causes

    For the CV boot experts: I am having my CV joints replaced for the second time in 3 years. (No time to do it myself, and if I'm being honest questionable expertise as well). This time, I finally noticed that both boots on both axles are significantly loose from the axles. One is just leaking...

    Wanted  WANT TO BUY - 1998 LX470 headlight assembly

    Anyone replacing a broken headlight? I will take the old one off your hands. I need the housing only, no need for glass. Both sides if possible, but I'll take either!

    front wheel sound guessing challenge

    I would love a push in the right direction here. There is a slight "loose" feeling in my left front wheel, started just today. It almost feels like a bolt connecting suspension components has worked its way almost out, or that my bearings are toast. After a visual inspection, and the...
