This 1997 Lexus LX450 has a registration history in Texas and was outfitted under previous ownership with a Dobinsons 2″ suspension lift and front and rear bumpers, as well as a roof rack, a brush guard, front fender guards, a front winch, rock sliders, and an air intake snorkel. In preparation for the sale, the 4.5-liter inline-six cylinder head was resurfaced, and the piston rings, rod and main bearings, radiator assembly, heater valve, thermostat, crankshaft seal, transmission mount, brake booster, and ignition components were replaced. Power is sent through a four-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The cabin features three rows of seats that have been re-covered in Ivory leather, and additional features include a powered sunroof, sliding rear windows, automatic climate control, an Alpine head unit, and a rear-view camera. This 80-Series LX450 shows 255k miles, and it is now offered by the selling dealer at no reserve with receipts, the owner’s manual, spare parts, and a clean Texas title.
The truck is finished in Black Onyx (202) with gray lower cladding. Aftermarket equipment from Dobinsons includes a front bull bar, a 12k-lb front winch, side steps, and a rear bumper with dual swing-outs carrying a spare wheel and a jerry can. The exterior also features a powered sunroof, sliding rear windows, a roof rack, front fender guards, LED headlights and auxiliary lighting, a receiver hitch, a rear wind deflector, and an air intake snorkel. The Carfax report lists accident damage in a September 2007 entry, and the selling dealer notes that the fenders and lower cladding show signs of having been refinished. A dent near the right taillight is noted.
This is a relist after the vehicle was previously sold on BaT in June 2026 and the winning bidder failed to follow through with their commitment to purchase. This was not due to any fault with the vehicle. The winner’s participation on BaT has been restricted and their buyer’s fee was not refunded.
The 16″ five-spoke alloy wheels wear Toyo Open Country tires, and a full-size spare is mounted to the rear carrier. The truck rides on a 2″ Dobinson suspension lift, and braking is handled by ventilated discs at each corner. The brake booster was replaced in April 2025, and the power steering hoses were replaced in May 2025.
The cabin features seats that have been re-covered in Ivory leather, while wood veneers accent the door panels and center console. Interior amenities include power-adjustable front seats, side-folding third-row jump seats, an Alpine head unit, a rear-view camera, cruise control, and automatic climate control.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 130-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, voltage, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 255k miles.
The 4.5L 1FZ-FE inline-six features electronic fuel injection and was factory rated at 212 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. In preparation for the sale, the cylinder head was resurfaced, and the piston rings, rod bearings, main bearings, and the cylinder head gasket were replaced. Additional work included replacement of the timing chains, timing guides, radiator, radiator hoses, heater valve and hoses, the fan clutch, thermostat, crankshaft seal, spark plugs, spark plug wires, and the distributor cap and rotor. A fluids service was also performed.
Power is sent through a four-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The transmission mount and the drivetrain fluids were replaced in preparation for the sale.
The Carfax report shows the aforementioned damage.
