800-908-6968 ask for Steve Ganz. It's Carson Toyota in CA. Check to see if he charge shipping? I just got charge shipping for my last ordered He never charge shipping before, it was their policy...
Post the price he quote so we all know.

Order the electrical manual also, you may need it latter too. $26.99

I paid ~$90 for two volume for my SC400 from a mechanic friend ordered through a Lexus dealer near DC area.

Default Shop Manuals for 1991 LS 400

I Have a 1991 LS400 and was looking for shop manuals but could not find any of the after market available. I came across this company books4cars.com (206) 721-3077, and they had in stock the original manufactures manuals, two volumes what ever you want to do, it is in there. They were a little pricey $ 160 but I have enjoyed have all the information the dealer has.

Default Manuals

I had a '93 LS400 and when I purchased it the individual gave me what I think you are referring to. Are these the two books that cover the entire car - each about 3-4 inches thick? I may still have them around the house if you (or anyone else) is interested.

This is an email that I got, I was requesting the repair book.

message attached:

We have a copy of that factory service manual in our library but we do
not have a copy for sale. Try Faxon Auto Literature at 1-800-458-2734
(in the US). If you just need info such as a specific wiring diagram
(wipers, radiator fan,
power windows, locks, headlamps, ignition system, etc.) or a repair
procedure (timing belt R&R, brake information, water pump removal, code
extraction, etc.) or a vacuum diagram, etc. you can request that from us
at http://www.4door.com/emform.htm Cost is $19.95 for up to 10 pages
emailed or faxed or $20.95 for US Mail.
Any page over 10 is $1.50 per page. Thank you.

Default Shop Manuals

Make me an offer (plus shipping.) The books are titled 1993 LS 400 Repair Manuals - Volumes I & II. Each book is about the size of a phone directory.

I called directly to Toyota (In California) , not a dealer, and was able to purchase my full set of shop manuals delivered to my home with a 90 day return option. No problem.
