I saw a local deal that I couldn't pass up on a 98 LX470. This is my first 100 series, so I'm starting all over in the 100 FAQ. Mine is all stock and in need of the usual base line work. Planning on replacing the radiator, all fluids, heater T, T-belt/water pump, serpentine belt, tensioners and look into the axles, drive shafts and bearings and such. No leaks or drips at all. Luckily, it's been a garage queen, so no rust or paint issues. Front seat bottoms are cracked, but I have decent seat covers already that came with it. The only things not working are the telescoping steering wheel and the antenna mast as well as the D light is out. The AHC works, but isn't fully functional from what I can tell. It goes up and down, but does not register as being in full high or low in the dash. The light seems to like staying in the N position regardless of how high it is riding. Future mods are just new 255/85/16 tires, TJM bumper and locker for the front. I'd like to keep the AHC, but am not opposed to deleting it in favor of a 2.5/3" lift. I'd like to repair the steering wheel and do whatever it is you do to eliminate the auto feature. I also plan on putting the RTT up top. Any additional advise or how-to links are appreciated!
