    16+ LX rear bumper options

    I am looking for better clearance in the rear and to replace my scuffed up plastic OEM rear bumper. What options are out there for the LX? I like the non-carrier option from ARB for the 08-15 LC but don’t see any option for 16+ and also realize the AHC pump location creates a complication on the...

    Early Center Arm: What am I dealing with?

    I went out with my early center arm rebuild kit that I got from @cruiseroutfit and ran into a couple of issues. Firstly, I failed to notice the mangled threads on the top of the center shaft and promptly stripped out my M16 castle nut. For this, I just need to find another nut and re-cut the...

    Empty dash button blank

    I am down to my last blank button spot on my OEM dash for my 2017 LX. I'm thinking of moving my Redarc brake controller knob here and wonder if any one has used this blank spot left of the steering wheel. I haven't yet pulled this out but I wonder, is there enough room to drill out the two...

    Hitch skid plate options

    While I am personally a fan of a nice badonkadonk in other situations, the LX rear bumper is a major weakness. I will eventually replace the rear bumper. For now, however, I wonder about using a hitch mounted rear skid plate. I realize there are limited scenarios where this might be useful but...

    Tundra TPMS compatible?

    Are Tundra TMPS sensors compatible with 200 series TMPS system? I have a 2017 LX with TMPS sensors I suspect are original (anyway, they work). I bought a set of Tundra TRD (not pro) take-offs from a 2017 Tundra. I will be having them installed but keep my current rims with snow tires for next...

    Alignment shop in Northern UT

    Can anyone recommend a good alignment shop in Northern UT? I will be doing a mild AHC lift to our '17LX and run LT295/70R18 on Tundra TRD (non-pro +60 offset) wheels with 1.25" spacers to correct scrub angle changes from larger diameter wheels. I don't have added weight/armor but want to make...

    16+ LX Bumper chop

    Has anyone chopped anything off the lower part of the front of the 16+ LX? I've tried searching but have come up empty handed. Coming from a GX470, I'm not excited about scraping or completely ripping the front on the trails around the western US. I'm not thrilled with the look and weight of...

    Mr. Wayne

    This is Mr. Wayne, 2017 LX570, meant to replace Bruce, our 2005 GX that has been doing off-road duty, winter commuting and pulling Alfred (23’ airstream) around the west. We wanted something just a bit bigger for towing and for hauling the growing family. I‘ll miss the GX. It has Bilstein lift...

    Steering column vs rack

    Since installing my OME shocks and UCAs, my steering is very heavy and slow to return to center. I had it aligned and this problem was worse after doing so. The les Schwab tech said my steering rack is bad. I’m not so sure. What I’m experiencing when driving is the steering is super heavy for...

    Toyota or Lexus steering rack

    My steering rack bushings are shot on my 2005 GX at 190,000 miles and I’m looking fir replacement. I see the v8 4Runner and GX470 both have the same part number listed (44200-35070). I know there are differences in racks on other 120 series depending on drivetrain (V8/V6/4WD/2WD). Will this...

    I’ve been having a problem over the last month in my 05 GX with 175,000 miles. It usually happens within the first ten minutes f my 45 minute commute. When I apply the brakes, the power to the stereo and hvac cuts out momentarily. The lights go out and audio cuts out. It doesn’t seem to affect...

    I recently swapped out the original axles in my 1965 FJ40 for a pair from a '78. The new-to-me axles have new rotors and rebuilt FJ40 calipers up front and rebuilt monte-carlo calipers and disk conversion in the rear.

    GX470 no volume control

    A strange problem started today in my 2005 GX470 with standard audio (no nav, no ML). There is no volume control, no sound from speakers. All functions seem to work just fine from tuning, changing source, etc. There is no sound and when I turn the volume knob or push the volume buttons on the...

I got the old ones out but now I cannot get the new axle to seat into the diff. I can get it all lined up and even that first 1mm or so of...

    Engine won't turn off after new alternator.

    After upgrading to a newer, internally regulated alternator, the engine continues to run after turning off and removing the key. I can only get it to stop by stalling it in gear or pulling the ign (+) wire off the alternator. Coolerman and Rudi have been helping me with this but in an old...
