THIS is my very well sorted out LX450! Very capable off road and great road manners.

New BFG KM3 37inch tires, new head gasket, rebuilt head, Blue clutch fan, radiator, radiator hoses, brake calipers/pads, stainless steel brake lines, three way adjustable Dobinson MMR shocks, Chromoly axles, new rear drive shaft. Great AC/Heat, fully armored. Part time 4 wheel Drive upgrade.

Axles : Diffs were originally done by ZUK at gearinstalls.com and have Nitro 5.29 with full master kits, (elocked) Original Longfield chromo birfs at around 200K. Also rear shafts were upgraded to Nitro chromoly axle shafts. The front has new set of Nitro 5.29 gears, installed kit and complete new 3rd member was purchased and set up by Landtank about three years ago. Knuckle kits where done at the same time.

The T-case has Marlin Crawler 3.1-1 low rage gears, which are incredible. I've since done a Part time 4x4 kit on it with Aisin locking hubs with chromoly inner/outer hub gears and both ARP hub and Knuckle studs.

Exterior: Exterior of the truck has 2 tone Al's liner that mimmicks the original color combo and is extremely durable. All 140+ body holes were welded as opposed to using tape. Both F&R Fenders where cut to accommodate 40" tires and properly re sealed with sheet metal. Truck has a few dings and things since it's been on some epic adventures but overall the body is in great shape for being a 28 years old truck!

Armor: SLEE front bumper with 9000lb Superwinch.
4X4 Labs rear bumper with heavy duty integrated hitch, Ive since added dual swing outs with tire carrier, ladderI and Jerrycan carrier. I've also added 1 3/4" Dom rear quarter panel protection.
Custom heavy duty sliders, also frame slider/ramps for rear lower control arm hangers, custom low profile cross member, front range heavy duty tie rod and drag link. Front sway bar "hanger" for simple storage of sway bar after disconnect.

Over the frame custom exhaust.
Landtank custom e-locker axle shaft.
Landtank seat extension rails (driver).

Interior: Truck has the infamous Shanes Leather that the PO did and I've done my best to maintain them. I did the steering wheel in new Italian leather (Fancy) that I purchased from Mudd member who sells them. 3d printed cup holder for the front and the rear.. Weather tech floor mats, There is a designated full time 12V outlet set up there for the fridge. Ive also installed a blue sea fuse box inside the rear DS panel in the event extra accessories can be added in the future. Arb dual rate compressor mounted in rear.

Roof rack and awning included.

$28,500.00 obo

I’ve personally driven and wheeled with this truck. I assure you this owner is the type you want to buy a truck from. He takes care of his rigs at no expense and sorts everything out.
 
New OEM starter installed. Was in the pile of spare parts that comes with the rig. So now the spare is the old starter that's still good :cool:

I don’t trailer. I drive to and from Moab from Colorado. I have even drove from Colorado to Texas and back for an event. I’ve installed reman calipers on all four corners a few years back. Last year replaced pads with Hawk LTS, new Slee front stainless steel lines and a set of new rear Slee stainless steel lines comes with the rig in the part bin.

Forgot to list that I also have two spare rear drive shaft. Slee installed a new one last year 🤙
