Now I am starting to wonder if I made a mistake purchasing this example. I was hearing a clink sound from the driver side front and when going over certain types of rough road. I got under there and saw the sway bar end link was very loose.
I picked up two new end links at AutoZone. The...
Thanks! I did figure out from that site that it's part of 53903-60070. The reason I can't break it down further is because it's spot welded to the larger strip of metal. I assumed otherwise from a cursory glance as all the other connections are 10mm bolts.
You probably didn't miss much. It's sort of an unfinished project. There definitely is rust. Some stuff I'll probably cut up and weld myself and other things I'll leave to a body shop.
It would be helpful to have another one to look at so I can figure out what bits I'm missing.
The bracket that mounts from the radiator support to the headlight, bumper, and front trim piece below the grill I have not been able to find on any parts diagram. Does anybody know the part # for...
I got the LC badge back on. After looking at photos of these on the internet, it's not clear to me where the Toyota and V8 badges are supposed to go on the hatch.
The LC got an alignment and clean bill of health today. The next step is to re-attach the badges, replace missing fasteners, and use rust converter on several areas.
I'm surprised how nicely it rides on the highway.
I've been looking at parts diagrams and photos of other LC's, but I can't figure out what part I need to buy. Whatever the bottom of the front bumper fastens to is not there. What part is supposed to be there?
As a Midwesterner, none of it looked terminal to me. What I would think of as the radiator support has a hole rusted in it. The far corners of the rear body work is badly rusted. You can only see it from underneath. There is rust starting behind the rear door.
It looks like new compared to...
Thanks! In Tiffin, IA right outside of Iowa City, IA. It was previously owned by someone in North Liberty, IA. I'm pretty sure it was being flipped by the current owner.
I confirmed the A/C compressor does work. There must be a massive refrigerant leak. I had read it's common for the line to the rear a/c to be the culprit?
You can see the damage to the front of the hood here. I was told the PO hit a deer in it. They replaced the front fender and bumper...
I've been looking for a larger 4WD vehicle that can tow. A LC wasn't really on my list since I didn't think I would come across one, but I did, and so I bought it. It has 231k miles on it.
So far I know it needs an alignment and the AC does not seem to work. The Nav computer has some...
