Thank you! It’s a great rig and it pains me to have to get rid of it. My wife and I have dreamt of owning a LX for years. But my business needs a capital push so having to sacrifice.
Just installed new spark plugs (Denso iridiums) and coil pack seal and boot refresh. Installing new Stoptech...

I've submitted this issue to ARB, since the Sahara bumper is acknowledged by them as the only ARB bumper that "fits" the LX. Thanks for the tips, guess i'll be trimming that piece to get everything to fit.
Need some help folks. Trying to fix a PO Sahara bumper install. Had to replace several hacked up front bump trim support pieces. But now reinstalling the Sahara bumper and something is not making sense. The bumper is contacting the metal piece to which the headlight trim attaches. Online pics...
I used to have an '03 Sequoia that suffered this same mistep by Toyota - map lights did not come on with the dome/overhead light. This was the fix (yes, i'm posting a link to another forum):
Dome light mod
Wondering if it'll work on the LC/LX. Thoughts?
Hah. Fun thread. Mine pertains to a sloppy ARB bumper and winch install by PO. Bumper is too close to the body so they cut out the head light and bumper trim support. And notched the new bumper to clear the winch control box
Pinch weld has been trimmed back, so its not contacting there. I think its the +25 offset of the Rebounds combined with the 285 tread width; these Yoko Geos are just WIDE. Getting contact at fenders, at less than full lock on incline/decline turns.
I think the 275/70R18 is probably my best...
For those of you on 18" wheels with the OME 2.5" lift, what tires are you running? I've got 285/75/R18 (essentially a 35") and they're just too big. With front end sitting at about 2.25" above stock, there's just not a lot of clearance with the front fender and the turning radius sucks.
Yeah, absolutely it makes noise. Plus with those headlight trim pieces holding on with just a hope and a prayer, they rattle against the bumper. I'll need to pull the bumper, readjust the frame mounts, replace the missing reinforcement piece, relocate the winch control box, and then adjust all...
