As soon as you go to Toyota and say its a Lexus import that walk away Sad

I can't even find the part on www.rockauto.com and have no idea what its called Sad

would be nice just to go to toyota and ask for the part if I knew what it was the same on in the UK Sad

STRESS!

Have you tried looking on TOYODIY? If you can find the part no. you can order through your super friendly & helpful local Toy dealer. I fear that you will be charged a scary sum but I would be surprised if they couldn't order the part if you gave them the number.

http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/q_U_1997_LEXUS_LX450_FZJ80.html

If I have your vehicle entered correctly and I understand the part from your description, you're looking for part no. 45611-60080 (steering knuckle arm RH). In the North American market, this part is indicated as costing $176 - my guess is that figure will be higher in Pounds.

I hope this helps - good luck!

EDIT: I've just compared for a regular 80 series and it's the same part! The LHS arm is 45612-60070... You should be able to order this easily from any Toy dealer, assuming that I have correctly identified the part you need!

Cheers,

You should find that most parts for the LX450 apart from the trim and interior will be the same as an 80 series Land Cruiser. Worth giving Milners a call.

LX450 = FZJ80
LX470 = UZJ100

You're welcome thumbup

Hope that gets you sorted! Pretty good price - I picked up a couple of oil seals from Toyota this morning and got stung £25 each for a bit of rubber and a tiny spring running round it... Twisted Evil

As long as it does the job!

Let us know how you get on!

Cheers,

How can it be cracked ?!
It's a maleable steel drop forging isn't it ?
Any pics?

I collected the part today and it was the wrong side :(there listings have the numbers the other way round so 45611 being the single arm and 45612 being the double Confused

not a problem as they refunded and reordered the new part to arrive this afternoon express. I do wonder how the numbers are the other way around?

45611 ARM, STEERING KNUCKLE, RH
45611-60070 FZJ80

This is the part I need but I have no idea where to get it from Sad

any advice please as Toyota and Lexus UK are a no go.
