Well, it’s time for me to say goodbye to my 100. Asking $23,000 obo I spent forever trying to find a super clean and low miles 100 as a platform to make a expedition trail rig for my family of 5. We wanted something to tow our little tent trailer around without issue and give us plenty of room for our 3 kids. That was all well and good until kid #4. With 4 kids under the age of 6 my wife can’t seem to load the older two in the 3rd row without a ton of issues. I decided to pick up an AWD Sienna for her and now the 100 needs a new home. I literally just finished the build. Here are the specs:
2003 LX470 with 99,900ish on the odometer (I will double check that when I get home tonight) it may have just hit 100k since my wife drove it some over the last couple days. It has a clean title in hand and had two owners before me. The first had it for about a year. I’m thinking it was leased. The 2nd owner had it for the next 10 years until I bought it from her. Mostly dealer maintained its first few years then some local shops and some dealer work for the rest. The 2nd owner was stupid anal about cleanliness and maintenance and it showed when I first saw it. I have continued that anal approach to cleanliness and maintenance. It spent most of it’s life in socal except for a year in Nebraska when her work transferred her. There is no rust. When I purchased it I baselined all fluids. I have also flushed the AHC twice. I did it when I first got it with around 80k and then again this last weekend. The AHC system works fantastic. The fluid wasn’t quite the clear pink I wanted it to be. It’s nice and clear pink now. The timing belt and water pump were recently done using all OEM parts. I have a pile of receipts for this 100. Here is the build specs.
Suspension/Drivetrain:
-2.25” AHC sensor adjust (front) 1.75” (rear) Sits with about a 1” rake (Factory is about 2”)
-BIOR Diff Drop with skid plate spacers
-Japan 4x4 AHC shock spacers front and rear
-80 Series rear springs with OME 10mm trim packers. (That got tech-stream numbers a tad below stock and right at stock when the tent trailer was hooked up) AHC worked great with the little trailer. I also have some 30mm MAF rear spacers if you wanted to just about zero out the rear AHC pressures or have a heavy trailer and need a little extra support for the AHC out back.
-Completely rebuilt front diff with Nitro 4.10 gears, Just Differentials complete rebuild kit, and new cv boots
-Replaced crush sleeve with solid spacer from just differentials to increase strength of front pinion
Wheels/Tires:
-Nitto ATs 275/70/18s (33.5”) on factory wheels (about 30-40% tread)
-Also have a set of 4 Goodyear Duratracs 275/70/18s with about (75-80% tread) those are included
-Just Differentials 1.5” wheel spacers front and rear to give a better stance
-1 Full size 275/70/18 BFG AT Spare mounted in factory location with 1” spare tire lift
Armor:
-Dissent Modular Front Bumper with 20” Cree Light Bar (I still need to hook up the wiring)
-BIOR rear bumper with integrated receiver hitch
-White Knuckle sliders with AHC hardware
Interior:
-PFRAN LED light upgrade kit
-Trailer Brake Controller mounted under steering wheel on dash
-Generic All Weather Floor Mats (mainly to just keep the kids off the factory floor mats)
