It conflicts with control and also will lead to driveline damage. There is a reason Toyota puts warning lablels in their CDL-equipped SUV's about not engaging the lock on dry pavement. And I believe my non-CDL equipped 4WD's also had warnings about not driving in 4WD on dry pavement. My guess...
Just as the Title asks, do all the 80's have them, or were they an option that most 80's ended up having?
Yes, I tried the search feature for a few minutes.
Doug,
That scenario sounds like exactly what happened to me and my family about 5 yrs. ago. We were on the freeway, in light traffic, at about 70 mph before some asshat lost control of his Mercedes and did the pit on us. Fortunately we were in a minivan, and our tires never tripped nor...
Did you disclose to her the KBB trade-in value first?
EDIT: I just checked KBB, it was a tad under $5,000. A good deal for the lady evidenced by a papertrail, an a great deal for you!
Sikko,
How 'bout a little more info on your Cruiser? Maybe you should consider selling it and get something better for the street? Send me a PM.
EDIT: Nevermind about the PM. '92 w/200k+ miles.
I haven't done a real close up yet. The 80 has been in SoCal its whole life and we don't usually have rust problems here, though the paint really needs to be rubbed out. If I proceed I'll poke the sunroof drain holes w/a zip tie and also have the rig professionally inspected.
Ultimauk: I...
Going about my daily travels, I came across another white '96 80. This one has about 140K on the clock and has had no love in a long time, if ever. The owner is a liar, says he's the orig. owner and its never been wheeled when Carfax shows he's 2nd owner and the skid plates show its been...
OK, the oil leaks were checked out yesterday by the current owners mechanic and were described as a few minor leaks. I will call the mechanic tomorrow for more info, but would any of you seasoned vets care to speculate on the attached photo's? And no, the Odyssey won't be traded for the 80...
Well, actually I was trying to convince her to swap out the Odyssey for the LC. The Odyssey only has 45K miles and is in perfect condition. The LC has 95K miles, leather seats not maintained and cracked, lots of oil caked down by the oil pan and front axle. Power steering hums when you turn...
Alright guys, thanks for the quick responses. I've actually been lurking here for a few months before registering today. ANyway, everything locked and unlocked without any drama. No akward moments or embarrasing situations! Don't know if I'll be joining the LC ranks or not as right now I am...
I'm a newbie to the LC and want to make sure I have the locker activation sequence right:
1. go into 4L (on dirt, acitvates when light stays lit)
2. turn locker knob, activates when light(s)? stay lit.
If lights blink, the respective locker isn't locked.
I may need to roll awhile and...
