Looking to sell my 1996 LX 450. It has ~167k miles. Also willing to work out trade for 200 series TLC.

Price: $35,000

I bought this car last year and am looking to get into something bigger for longer trips (I'm 6'5 and more than 3 hours gets uncomfortable for me).

The car is in great shape. Starts/runs perfectly, AC ice cold. Paint is 9/10 (Dark Emerald Green Pearl). Clean Carfax. I have full service records for the car - performed at Lexus of Dayton for about 95% of its life through ~140k miles.

Some details below (as much as I can remember):

Wheel/Tires:
- Fifteen52 Wheels on 35" KO2s

Engine / Drive Train :
  • Re-geared with 4.56 Nitro Gears (by Land Cruiser Outfitters)
  • ARB Air locked front and rear. This is wired to OEM locker switch so looks very clean. (by Land Cruiser Outfitters)
  • Freshly installed exhaust system (Magnaflow y-pipe / cat)
  • Recently done pre-emptive maintenance:
    • Knuckle rebuild done within the past year. Rear axle was also done during re-gear in 2020
    • Blue fan clutch
    • PHH (SAMCO Xtreme Silicone)
    • AC Idler pulley (OEM)
    • New Fuel pressure regulator (OEM)
    • New PCV Valve Kit (OEM)
    • All three motor mounts (OEM)
    • Front Drive shaft
    • all fluids (front/rear diff, transfer case)
Suspension:
  • Stage 1 ICON shocks all around - 3" lift
  • Ironman 4x4 Front & Rear adjustable Panhard bars
  • Ironman 4x4 Extended Sway bar mounts
  • Ironman 4x4 Caster Plate (Delta Vehicle System radius arms will be included but uninstalled)
  • Ironman 4x4 extended brake lines
  • Whiteline Rear Sway bar
  • Old Man EMU Steering stabilizer

Interior:
  • Land Cruiser Heaven front and rear seats (third row still factory leather but in great condition)
  • Seat warmer in front seats
  • Alpine ILX-W650 head unit (with apple CarPlay / rear camera)

The bad:
  • Windshield has a small crack. Will add photo.
  • The tie rod (or drag bar?) is rubbing slightly on radius arm. I have purchased DeltaVS radius arm but not yet installed).
Other:
  • PIAA spot lights - this is wired to OEM Toyota light switch for clean look)

Below is one picture of the car I have now as I'm on the road. I will be taking some more pics (interior/undercarriage) this week.

Beautiful LC, any way you would part with it without the wheels are tire combo? It looks rad, checks all my boxes but just a little out of my price range. Please consider and let me know what you would want without them, I have some extra wheels...not nearly as nice but might help me get it home if the price was right. thanks for your consideration.

Interested. Did you have the suspension and drivetrain work done or did you buy it that way? Any pics under the hood?

Back in the market. Buyer decided to go in a different direction (wanted more of a project car vs something that’s nearly complete).
 
Thank you! It could be yours for the right price!
 
The right price for both!

I cancelled my Delta radius arm order so they will not be coming with the car (obviously). I'll take off $1,500 from the price to account for this so the price is now $31,000.
