LKQ Central Texas?
So I'm down here vacationing in New Braunsfels, Texas. I was driving down the 35 and see an LKQ, I look in the yard and see TONS of Toyotas. FJ40s, LC's; the most old Toyotas I have ever seen! I was curious if anyone has ever checked this place out? If I have time tomorrow I will run over there and get some pics and check the place out for myself.

-I think the Toyota thing is RIGHT next to LKQ by the looks of it, I drove by this evening cruising around.

I am going to Schlitterbahn on Wednesday! Can't wait to check it out, we went down the Guadalupe tubing yesterday, tomorrow we are going to Wimbeldon and also tubing down the Comal, which will hopefully have more water than the Guadalupe.

I have 2 LKQ's in my area one is small and never has anything for toyotas there always stripped out.. but there is another one like 30 miles from me and its huge and i completely forgot about it untill you just mentioned this.. LKQ bought out the 2 biggest junk yards in Denver Colorado a couple years ago.. there kinda expensive but def a place for toyotas.. I actually have a toyota junk yard about 5 miles from my house tho so its a little more convienent to just go there.. that junk yard knows about the LC spring conversion so they charge $80 a pop for the LC springs which is not ok.. so ima check out the LKQ since you mentioned it..

I see things from LKQ on Ebay all the time. I guess I didn't catch they are here in Texas. Wonder if there is one near me? I'll have to check it out.
