Build LX450 - Groceries, 3-pedals and a coil pack. Daily driver build!

[SNLC]

I have had this LX450 for awhile now, when I bought it it was cheap enough to be a parts truck or complete enough to put back on the road. It’s not rusty.

I am wanting a low lift, a bit of a sleeper, fun to drive type Cruiser for daily duties. With lots of parts around the shop it seemed good enough of a Cruiser to put back on the road and have some fun with. Condition on this thing currently is probably a six out of ten.

Cheers

A coil pack 1FZ I have for the build.

New H152 5spd trans.

Random manual trans swap parts.

I have a bunch of tcases to pick from for a rebuild. I also have high/low tcase gears and part time kits too. Not sure currently if I will keep this thing full time or go part time.

I am listing my 1995 FZJ80 soon for sale and this LX will replace it for DD and light duties.

Cheers

That picture above of the trans is actually a customers trans I just used for the picture! Here is mine getting built.

All ready to go with the correct 1FZ parts.

Tcase we are starting a build out on.

Cheers

I think you need a longer puller...that thing is a beast!

Looking forward to following and seeing your progress, I'm sure it will be a great build!
