Hey, probably a stupid question but I've searched around and didn't find anything... is it possible to swap the LX450's stock rear bumper for the LC's?
I'm not prepared to purchase an after-market bumper although there are certainly some sweet ones out there - but I am really tired of the...
Hey, thanks to everyone for your suggestions here! I was out of town all weekend and coming back to a bunch of ideas is really helpful.
Sounds like I should use some hose clamps on heat shielding and see if that causes it. Also remove the drive shafts, although I'm such a sub-one banana...
I've been trying to figure out a sound on my '96 LX450 I've noticed when I put on or let off the throttle. It's not insanely loud, but it sounds like metal rattling or crackling. I've noticed it more in summer since I have the windows down a lot - it's not so bad that I can notice it with them...
I don't know, I wouldn't sell personally. The MPG is s***ty, but other than that I'm pretty blown away as a newish (1 year) owner by how little attention 80s need. I always change my oil and with this vehicle I have done coolant and am getting ready to do the differential fluid, but really it's...
Just want to echo the drain tube suggestion. My LX450 had wet floors after every rain, and I was concerned I was going to need to do the sunroof job you've done. Instead I got access to the drain tube via the driver's side footwell and found a massive kink in the line. I actually ended up...
Cool. I admit I don't fully understand the different viscosities, but 30K seems like a lot more. I have done a good amount of reading on old threads and it seems like the higher viscosities are preferred for super hot climates, which fortunately the PNW isn't. You think 30K wouldn't be overkill...
Hey folks, I have a 1996 LX450 I've owned a couple months and after doing fluid flushes and changing a few hoses the first thing I'm trying to tackle is a fan clutch replacement and/or service.
I purchased this Aisin fan clutch after reading about Landtank's mod. I have opened it up and begun...
About 4 euros worth of coins (mostly Spain), 2 cigarette lighters, 3 ice scrapers, gnarly old rags, and a replacement doorstop assembly. The latter was nice to have, but didn't come with a screw, so I had to use one I had left over from an AR-15 lower parts kit and now the door has a...
Pretty sure they're factory, but I'm not positive. I just bought the vehicle recently and took it to a shop to do some stuff I'm not yet comfortable doing myself, so I didn't get hands-on with it.
It would be cool to think it'll just go away after a few weeks. It's not causing any functional...
Pretty wild to see this posted here as I have pretty much exactly the same issue arising on the same day (Wednesday) after a brake job. It sounds pretty similar to what you are talking about, @rioghamo. I think mine is fairly universal, not restricted to after the vehicle warms up, though...
