I'm having a really, really tough time finding something to fit my needs and I'm hoping for some help from you all. I was once upon a time a HUGE Cruiser nut and owned 11 of them ranging in age from the 60s to the 2000s with my favorites being my FZJs. Those days are long gone and now I drive...

I have the two front tow points (that take two bolts and bolt to bottom of framerails), $30 shipped for the pair
I also have some switches from the interior (nothing for diff lockers) I will have to dig them out. I parted out a 91 (I think) FJ80 a couple years back and need to get rid of the...
So I was enjoying my Sunday by working on this and that on my 80. Had a phantom, "I am just not going to start until you jump me", problem that reared it's head a 2nd time on Saturday. Decided to replace both battery terminals and clean things up. Started up just fine. Couple hours later-...
I'll post this, fully expecting an eye roll. Here's my issue: tried my trusty old hitch on the '05 LX, but will not recess deep enough to line up the pin holes. (Eventually, I'll be upgrading for a stronger hitch, I know where that thread is here...but for now I just want to tow my 6-foot box...
I was towing a 5,000 lb trailer through some hills in Austin over the weekend with the O/D off. Climbing those hills it can only manage about 35 MPH @ 3,000 RPM. I can rev it to 4,000 RPM to pick up some speed but I didn't feel comfortable revving it that high for more than a few seconds. Two...
Just returned from a trip down to Costa Rica and got to view a lot of LC. Lots of cool FJ40s, 60s, 70s and almost all of them diesel.
This particular FJ40 was one of the coolest I saw while there. I had to share the image.
Enjoy.
I will be receiving my BIOR rear bumper next month so have no need for this anymore. Tow hitch/bar from a 2006 LX470 assuming it will fit an LC but cannot confirm. A couple of spots of surface rust (see pics) but otherwise in good condition. The grey areas are POR15 drips from when I applied...
So- i have an 80 series that has been bastardized into a 4200lb -fzj55 and im wondering how tow ratings will be affected compared to stock with the 700ish lb weight reduction????
should tongue weight be increased to make up for slightly lightish rear end? or should i add weight in the bed...
Wife is talking about upgrading her GX to something newer. At the same time I'm looking for a new toad to pull behind our Bluebird bus. Now I know the owners manual says no flat tow. Actually all Toyota manuals that I have say that. No matter the trans or transfer case. I seen a GX being pulled...
I have a tow hitch for sale that was on the LC when I bought it. I'm not 100% sure it's OEM but it's super sturdy. It has a little rust but it's just on the surface. A little sanding and some fresh paint and it's good to go. I WILL NOT ship. I can meet you in the PDX/Vancouver area if...
Hi guys- I have a 1998 Lexus LX470 (no tow package) and I'm trying to determine what parts I need to set up a brake controller. I gather from the forum that there might be a universal kit for this, but haven't found a part# or name.
Right now everything's stock aside from an aftermarket Curt...
Hi guys - I'm new to the world of LCs/LXs. First of all, thanks for being such a resource: I've found a lot of good information here that's made me informed enough to be dangerous, if not yet competent. There's a lot to read and understand.
I just purchased a '98 LX470 with 120k original miles...
I integrated a receiver into the frame of my 80 and don't need the bolt-on one anymore. This is the one that bolts underneath the frame. Pick up only in 84321. Plenty of rust. Asking $40
Bumper No Hook by IrishCRZR posted Feb 2, 2016 at 9:43 AMHi - seeking an extra/parted front tow hook. Its $35 shipped from SOR, was hoping someone would ship to 60613 for $20 - wear and tear appreciated. New bumper feels naked without it:
