Selling my very built, lovingly cared-for 2008 LX570 to make room for the next project. This is a proven, trail-used, well-documented 200-series that’s already had the big work done and the right parts added—ready to drive to Moab, wheel all weekend, and drive home.

It’s not a mall crawler. It’s a quiet, solid, no-drama rig that’s been sorted by shops that know these trucks.

Highlights
  • AHC professionally deleted (no warning lights, AFS still works) + Dobinsons MRA 3-way remote res shocks
  • 35" KO2s on Method 703 Beadgrip
  • Real armor + recovery: Ironman bullbar, Warn EVO 12K, Factor 55 Ultrahook
  • Overland electrical done right: SwitchPros 9100, Renogy DC/DC, 1000W inverter, 100Ah house battery, Blue Sea SafetyHub 150
  • Documented maintenance + major reseals completed (cam towers/timing cover, starter, radiator, hubs, seals, etc.)

Why you’ll love it:
  • Enthusiast-owned and documented — built to be used, not babied.
  • Drives tight: solid, quiet, no squeaks/rattles.
  • It's conquered proven places: Moab, Colorado, and the PNW — it’s already done the hard miles.
  • The big 200-series maintenance? Handled. The build is cohesive and sorted, not a random pile of parts.
You should know:
  • Its definitely not a show truck, with bumps and bruises:
    • scrape on driver rear quarter
    • chipped corner on passenger rocker (≈ 3 years ago)
    • wheel rash from rocks

  • Windshield molding clip needs to be re-glued and there are two small, non-spreading cracks
  • Two small spots of old super glue inside: dash + near climate control
  • Lived in the Northwest → light surface rust on frame (non-structural, I'm including under carraige photos)
  • Center diff actuator occasionally sticks (may respond to cleaning)
  • Rear parking sensors inop (harness was cut during rear bumper install)
  • Only one key
  • No third row seats
  • Factory inverter removed (replaced by Renogy 1000W system)
 
Asking for a friend who is interested, what is the locker/gear situation? I'm assuming factory? This rig is the Darth Vader to my Stormtrooper (sort of :D)

lol dude I gotta know what that means
You haven't heard that one?
It's a quote from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" - Cameron's Dad's Ferrari. "He never drives it, he just rubs it with a diaper."
A reference to just housing something like a museum exhibit instead of using it for its' intended purpose.
I'm saying that the truck is actually operated in challenging off-road environments...more than just a "MallCrusher".

It's definitely a compliment. GLWS, I wish I was in the mix.

Showed this rig (listing) to my mechanic today and he said he has another client currently looking for a 200/570 so maybe you'll get a call on it. He and I agree that it's a smoking deal at $27K and the miles are low for this year. I still wish I was the guy calling the bank to arrange the transfer...
