We have a 1999 std LC100 in our fleet that has nearly 300k on the clock now. They have been hard kms on mines and poor gravel roads with about 80k in the
Pilbara on diabolical tracks. The engine is still very strong and has never suffered any significant failure. Radiator replaced, front CV's replaced, brakes rattled apart several times, replaced
suspension and steering damper, front and rear lights vibrated loose several times. The gearbox has had a whine in it for about 60k now but hasn't failed yet.
Not bad at all for the hammering it has taken. All we do is service every 5k, give it a good lube/grease and a good
check for loose bits and pieces. Loctite the loose bits as you find em and they seem fine after that.
I thoroughly recomend replacing the
suspension and steering damper even in a brand new LC100 as this has an incredible improvement in handling.

Forgot to add, it also has an Airtec
snorkel and I have owned it since it was 12 months old. If you want some pics supply your email address.
