I have a beauty of and LX I have had for 3 years. All original garaged kept since born (2000), stock, 130k LX. Love it and drive it on trips and the wife grabs the groceries in it. I have an 80 and a 60 and do most of my posting there cause I do not have to post on anything for the LX. But...
Is there any other transmission that has an extra gear that was made by Toyota that could bring a little more fuel economy? T-case solutions? I searched and did not find much...
Do not not even start w the snarky comments. My 80 and 60 get 12 to 13.5 no matter what I do, downhill, pulling a trailer, hauling canoes, uphill, even with the key off sitting in the driveway. I can squeeze 15 outta the LX on trips at 75. But dang, if I had that extra gear to drop it 350 to500 rpm on the highway at 75 that would be awesome. Any bolt in, with minor mods to drive shaft length or? out there?
