Hi All,
I originally accessed this site researching the replacement or repair procedure for the steering rack on my LC200 GXL Cruiser as it has developed a leak at the steering column connection Just a small weep but i am going to repair it myself and am grateful for the information. It does seem that raising the engine will make the job easier
Time is not an issue for me as I am retired , i also have quite a good work shop and tool kit
My 2009 200 series is my third Toyota and i was fortunate that all were company supplied vehicles I have nothing but praise for my Toyota's. On retirement i purchased my current LC200 from the company and in the time since i have knocked up over 400,000 ks most of which towing an off road van and heavily laden with kayaks on roof and various other toys.
The car has always been serviced regularly (including transmission fluids @ 100k intervals) the car is still running like a clock and without a doubt the best car i have owned
Past issues ; Fan belt tensioner at about 150k, Alternator at about 300k, 4WD CPU at 370k ..... Current steering rack weeping
