    I fixed a couple of the 'clunks' in the drive lines. Coil springs. It's the splines in the driveshaft. You have to separate it to actually get it greased and then if you stay on top of it just a few squirts at oil change.

    Yeah it's probably a good deal, the Lexus parts are a bit spendier but the clunk should be cheap enough, if he's gonna lift it chances are he'll replace whichever 4link rod has the bad bushing anyway.

    It's a land cruiser Prado though, it doesn't directly coordinate to a Toyota that's sold in the states

    My moms 06 Highlander has been a true testament to Toyota reliabilty, 165k+ and nothing but routine maintenance. Owned it since new, only thing wrong is the drivers sun visor doesnt stay up anymore.

    The thing that fascinates me is all the suspension/steering components are still original with no noticeable clunking or sagging. Most other brands would be on their second or third set by 160k. I think even the plugs are original. Only big maintenance done was timing belt/wp at 90k. Oh and it came from the factory with a cracked radiator, but warranty got that.
