1997 Lexus LX450 210,xxx miles - $6,000 -

and the RR quarter really should be redone

Rear Bumper

Exhaust
o Magnaflow 3 way spun catalytic converter

o Mandrel bent tubing over frame
o Cherry Bomb Turbo Muffler
o One weak point is it has some flex tubing in part of the exhaust which works, but would be better if replaced with solid exhaust tube.
Sliders
o Owner built rotating sliders
o Out-riggers are 2”x2” x ¼” wall tube
o Main body is a trapezoid shape of 6”, 3”, 3” and 2” x 3/16” plate
o Slides over rocks easier than tube sliders, and gives maximum clearance
o In down position they are lower than step sliders, and provide a great step in . Makes getting into tall truck
really easy - easier than my friends Tacoma w/ 3" of lift!
Custom skid plate
o Extends to sliders at center mounting point.
o Even with bottom of frame except at t-case where it slopes down to clear
o Reinforced w/ tubing
1” Body Lift
Dual battery set-up w/ relocated washer bottle
EGR Valve and VSV replaced 2 years ago
All 4 brake rotors replaced @ 165,000 miles
Front end rebuild @210,000
New 100 Series Pads @210,000
Issues
• Rear defroster doesn’t work - the wire that attaches to the glass is busted
• Rear wiper doesn't work - have not diagnosed why
• Dome lights don't work - have not diagnosed why
• Power attenna needs to be replaced
• ABS light is on, pretty sure it's just front wheel sensor
I bought this truck with 163,000 Miles and it was a one owner truck. I’ve had it for 6 years and have simply become bored having the same truck for so many years. No known mechanical issues, and the truck drives good down the hwy at 75+. Still rides comfortably despite its height and 37” wheels. Off-road with the lockers and long travel suspension the truck is simply amazing. Locked 80’s are good, 37” tires and 14” travel shocks take this truck to a higher level. It has been used for it's intended purpose on the rare occasions I have time.
