Default 98 Lexus LX470 FS CHEAP

I've got a 1998 Lexus LX 470 with 135K mi. Vehicle has all the options. 4x4, leather, sunroof, heated seats, etc... Vehicle in overall good condition. Timing belt and water pump was completed. Fairly new Michelin tires all around. Have a list of maintenance records. Hood struts and hatch struts also recently replaced since the stock ones were worn. Leather is overall in good condition. Back seats look new, front driver seat has minor wear. Paint is pretty good shape. Better than expected for a vehicle of its age. There are a few spots where the sun has taken its course but not bad at all. Vehicle was garaged it's entire life. Vehicle is stock with no performance modifications.

No check engine lights. Ready to go. Only issue with the vehicle is the passenger side mirror needs replaced. The housing and shell is there, just need the actually mirror part.

Clean title. Vehicle located in the Houston area. I can get pictures this week. Exterior color is a light beige with the light leather.

Looking for $11K

I will check but I'm not sure. If this was a factory option, its probably got it.

Be sure and list it on IH8MUD.COM. Folks there will appreciate it having a locking rear differential!

There is a button to the lower left of the steering wheel on the dash. A round **** that you turn and it will say diff lock. From what I remember (I could be wrong as mine is a 2003 when rear locker was no longer an option), it is extremely rare in the US for a 98-99 to have the rear locker option. It was more common in overseas markets and also in Canada. To be honest, I have never seen a 98-99 in the US with the rear locker, but I was curious since you said it had "all the options." The LC's of the same commonly had the rear locker, even in the US.

The 98-99's came with a rear LSD if they do not have the locking diff, so still pretty sweet, for anyone looking. I would be all over this truck at that price, if I didn't already own a 2003 model.

Ok thanks for the input. Dont believe it would have the rear locker then. Does have a button to the right of the center stack which looks like its for the center diff.

What is yalls input on my price? I recently aquired the vehicle so don't know much about them.

Also have all the service records and vehicle has a tow hitch. Once i get a chance to post pics, ill start a new thread with the updated info and pics and go into more detail.

Thanks
