Like many others, my upper hatch has rusted through, right below the window. I am now searching for a rust-free replacement upper hatch from a Lexus LX450.
Preferably in 1B1 Champagne Pearl.
Better yet if it is in the Mid-Atlantic or East Coast.
New to the forum. I just purchased a 96 LX450 and I’m super excited to fix it up. I’ve been searching post for several days and I’m looking forward to finding the answers to all of my issues.
Got a compression test done in June

The belt molding on my LX450 looks like crap. It's cracked, jagged, and missing little pieces everywhere. The pricing for OEM replacements seems crazy.
Has anyone tried these (or any other cheaper options) and been happy/unhappy with them...
I would like to remove my roof rack and go back to the factory roof rails on my LX450!
Anyone in Central Texas (Austin) have a lead on a nice set?
There must be a boneyard full of these somewhere.

WANTED- LX450 1997 Oem tool kit complete preferably. I know they aren't specific to model just looking for OEM and preferably complete. Also looking for a manual as well. If anyone has a spare they would part with please let me know.
My LX450 is an early production (1/96) but I think it has the later heater core found in late 96 and 97 FZJ80 productions. edited to add that mine appears to be an early heater core and not part number is 8710760270 and I am thinking all LX450 got the later version.
Mine vs a new one (FOUR...

My 97 lx450 has been having a slight knocking (pinging) issue all summer.
The pinging only happens under medium acceleration AFTER the engine has been running for a few minutes after startup. Sure enough, after a few minutes, P0330 pops up, the timing retards, and the pinging does not go...

This is the 4th 80-series I have owned and has been the best one yet. Bought it in 2019 from a collector in Atlanta when he was making room for a G-Wagon. It was bone stock and he had just completed an oil pump rebuild and knuckle rebuild. It is one...

The AC works intermittently. Cannot find the cause.
We have been at an AC shop and pressures are ok.
