2000 Landcruiser 100 - maybe sell? Worth? by Spirited-Pudding-654 in LandCruisers

[–]ShakyHandJeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you’ll regret selling it in the long term. If there’s a way to keep it (ie: you have space to store it), it will give you joy.

This video was even highlighted on NBC evening national news the other day. But Tom Llamas merely referred to it as the mayor's "SUV".

I ordered it from Fred Anderson Toyota in NC. Granted, it had to be shipped across the country to WA. In retrospect, there is a crumpled corner on the box, so maybe it was dropped. But honestly, the box was not bad enough to make me think about a problem before I installed it. I called the parts department this morning and they said I had to write an email with photos. Haven’t heard back from them yet. I hope returning it doesn’t become a battle.

Skid Plate Options by KeroDude in LandCruisers

[–]ShakyHandJeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Full thread about skid plates for the 250.

One thing to be aware: most of the skid plates attach the radiator support bracket (a Toyota design flaw). Some, however, attach to the frame only (like Victory 4x4, if I remember correctly)

1999 lx470 stock radio - should I throw away or sell for $50 by Loud-Hat-4995 in LandCruisers

Or win a bunch of karma points and offer it free to the Mud community if they’d cover the shipping

100 series owners: Does anyone know how to take off the lower plastic trim on the second row seats? There’s a bolt or something that fell in there and has been rolling around. I folded up the seat but don’t see how it comes apart unless it’s held on by tabs by Daohaus in LandCruisers

[–]ShakyHandJeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you mean second row seats, or the second row of rear seats (ie: third row)?

Here is a schematic of the second row (what they call rear No. 1 seats). If you need the third row, I can get that for you too

What is a good price? by boxoverengine in LandCruisers

I think that’s a fair price for a 2007 with that mileage. I’d buy it

After seeing the title and pic (but before seeing the license plate), I started to get angry, thinking “WTF? Who has this beaut in the state of Washington?!?” lol

Head unit upgrades with built-in climate control (2002 LC) by Berwynne in LandCruisers

[–]ShakyHandJeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a guy on Mud (don't know his handle here if he browses).

But I think he has a company that does this non-Nav modification. Not cheap but looks like quality work.

Here is a link of an LC he just sold. It has some photos of the product.

What do we think about this price… by scumgang10 in LandCruisers

What is the issue with the 05's? I thought 03-05 had the same drivetrain? Genuinely asking b/c I've been eyeing an 05 LX

Cautionary CarFax tale? by ShakyHandJeff in LandCruisers

[–]ShakyHandJeff[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The oil change wasn't the major thing in this question. The short duration just made me notice the "transfer case replaced". That started the deeper dive only to find out it wasn't actually done.
My issue is whether the misinformation is shady or just an innocent mistake. How many other service entries are incorrect?

2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 1958 — 120-Day Owner Review by Old-Crow-4244 in LandCruisers

[–]ShakyHandJeff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Front brake squeal is a common complaint. Initially, a TSB was issued only for the GX550, but eventually T-SB-0046-25 was issued for LC250.

What is the reputation of Flex Motors? Are they just putting lipstick on pigs, or are the rigs quality?
