This 1996 Lexus LX450 is powered by a 4.5-liter inline-six linked with a four-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and TJM front and rear locking differentials. Finished in Dark Emerald Pearl over Ivory leather, it is equipped with a Smittybilt winch, a Safari snorkel, a front brush guard, a rear storage box, a swing-away rear tire carrier, fabricated bumpers, 16″ five-spoke alloy wheels, automatic climate control, and a cassette stereo with a six-disc CD changer.
The 4.5L 1FZ-FE inline-six features electronic fuel injection and was factory rated at 212 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. The engine was removed and partially rebuilt in 2020, and the timing belt and water pump were replaced at that time. The air conditioning compressor was replaced and the engine oil was changed in preparation for sale.
Power is sent to all four wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and a locking center differential. TJM front and rear locking differentials have been installed along with ARB differential breathers.
The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage.
The truck was reportedly refinished in Dark Emerald Pearl (6M1) in 2021, and features a power sunroof, a rear tow ball, a rear window wiper, sliding rear windows, and running boards. Modifications include an ARB front bumper and brush guard, a Smittybilt winch, a Safari snorkel, Baja Designs LED auxiliary lights, and a Dobinsons rear bumper mounted with a swing-away tire carrier and a storage box.
Factory 16″ five-spoke alloy wheels wear 285/75 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A K02 all-terrain tires, and a full-size spare is mounted to the swing-out tire carrier. Braking is handled by ventilated discs at each corner, and a Dobinsons suspension suspension lift kit and steering stabilizer are installed.
The cabin features seats upholstered in Ivory leather, while wood veneers accent the door panels and center console. Interior amenities include heated power-adjustable front seats, a cassette stereo, a six-disc CD changer, cruise control, and automatic climate control. WeatherTech floor mats protect the carpets.
The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 130-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges.
The six-digit odometer shows 218k miles.
