Canman’s LX450 resurrection

[canman]

Another thing I want to address is my leaking exhaust. Earlier I thought it was just the the joint between the Bosal muffler and tailpipe assy, but noise/leak still persists. Had a closer look a few weeks back at the cats and was surprised at the condition of the rear car and O2 sensors. Can’t recall if I replaced the Y-pipe as well. Replaced the rear cat and catback Bosal system around 2013, so 10 yrs ago. Will buy new NTK O2 sensors.

Added a 3000W inverter and a bunch of wiring behind this interior panel waay back. The bottom of the quarter opened up years ago spraying water/dirt/etc into that area. Actually afraid to pull it back. Sure it won’t be pretty. Did I say I was a bad LC owner?

Found this in my stash. Lol! Will install them this afternoon.

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger; I have the same situation here.

 

[canman]

Not what I really wanted to do, but will work out likely better than chasing burning through metal.

Rotor wasn’t in the best of shape. Cap looks not too bad, but out it goes.

Got the fender temporarily installed so I can drive it onto town and fill up the LRA tank. That should be fun.

Seems antenna hole might be off slightly, might try to adjust the antenna mount first.

Engine is hesitating under load now. Pretty sure I got all the ign wires on the cap properly. Have had this issue in the past. Could be some bad fuel. Will fill up after stopping by the dealer for some parts. Pretty sure exh is leaking between the header/manifold and Y-pipe.

Hmmm…

Added 117L. Before it was on “empty” (bottom indicator line). That means I had about 50L in the tank before I added the 117L as tank is supposed to be 167L.

Took a trip through the back country.

This church was literally in the middle of nowhere on a logging road. They had a large shed/parking garage next to it.

Picked up these yesterday. They were CAN$18/each. The Densos’ were only $12, but they only had one in stk.

Was heading into town with the old girl, and 10 mins from my place I had no brake pressure. Luckily, it was just before I got onto the highway. Turned around and checked it out. This is what I found. Left front line on the axle ruptured where there was a bunch of dirt and crap hung up on the axle mtg brkt. Went back into town to order moar parts for the exhaust and the line. Parts guy said the line was in Cali and could take up to a week to arrive if goes by truck. D’oh

 

[canman]

My interior panel tools did arrive though. Buddy is arriving late tomorrow afternoon, so might not be able to get much done tomorrow.

 

[canman]

I’m curious as to if this is the bolt that secures the outer fender to the inner one. I’m pretty sure that is where they were but the parts guy said they’re not the correct ones. Could be as mentioned previously my entire front end was rebuilt. If anyone knows, please let me know.

Parts guy said these are the correct ones.

Took three full days, but got the frame built for my buddy’s FJ Cruiser.

That’s a good looking set up did you build the frame or is it manufactured? Does the whole unit slide or just individual draws/ fridge
