    Fs: Mint Rhd 1990 Hzj77

    Yeah, if you take a bit closer look, you will see that the shots from under the carpet and under the hood show the previous color: grey. And the rubber gasket material on the fenders is painted, too. -kevin

    "huff" noise from block heater - cause for concern?

    Yeah, it should sound kinda like an electric kettle when plugged in. Which, when you think about it, is more or less what it is: a small electric element heating up water. -kevin

    70 series double cab

    Now why is it that the Ozzy's and the South African's get all the good stuff? Makes me kinda pissed off. Who needs air bags? The Fed is trying to turn us into Bubble Boy, or something. You would think that they would know by now that they can't legislate common sense. And saving the morons is...

    FAQ 70 series Factory Lit

    Kinda makes ya wish we could get new ones over here... -kevin

    Ok, spell it out for me: 84 FJ60 - to - 84 BJ60?

    I may be missing something here, but i don't understand your desire to do the juggling engines/frames/bodies/VINs back and forth. As was posted earlier, why not just transplant the engine and required components from the BJ to the FJ? It is illegal here and likely everywhere else to swap the...

    My 2006 SWB Cruiser pictures

    Sure they do. OK, well, I guess it depends on where "here" is. I am in Alberta, Canada and saw a white one runing around on the street the other day and was a bit surprised. I checked the Toyota website and sure enough, they show white as a color for 2008. Along with beige as well as the usual...

    1987 BJ-70 Series Land Cruiser

    I have one question: Is that the original color? I don't think I have ever seen any CDN market BJ70s with that dark grey. -kevin

    1987 BJ-70 Series Land Cruiser

    It's a Canadian unit. That's allowed with the right paperwork/RI. -kevin

    BJ70 'Wheeling in the PNW, North America.

    Well, that may just be. Start brain before engaging mouth, I guess... The turbo sticker on the door looks pretty factory and I can't see someone trying to make people think that's what it is. Maybe a 13BT then? Regartless, they are nice looking units. For some reason, I sure do like the short...

    BJ70 'Wheeling in the PNW, North America.

    Yeah, the one with the goofy roof is probably not CDN, but the other likely is. One give away would be the roof, but the other is the positioning of the marker lights on the fender. They are too far back. And the missors are not standard. Ummm, I see the Canadian one has different mirrors, too...

    5w30 diesel oil in Canada?

    If you are stuck on that particular weight of oil, you might find it at the Husky truck stop. I have seen 0w30 or something close to it there before. I think there is one in Nanaimo. Or use the yellow pages - lots of people sell oil. Even the CT stuff is made by Petrocan or Shell or some other...

    24 volt headlight

    You could also try Napa. Or maybe tractor service/parts places. Freightliner, Kenworth, Volvo, Mack; all those guys (maybe). -kevin

    Wastgate or not!

    Hey BB, is this statement based on some sort of evidence, ir is it just your opinion? I know that factory is in the 7-8 psi range, and that many here recommend not going over 14 or 15 or your engine will blow up or something equally disastrous. Yes, one must be concerned about con-rod...

    Why 24V?

    Yeah, the 24v 8274 line speed is a lot faster than the 12v version, too. I think it is likely mostly due to military/NATO requirements. That's NORTH atlantic treaty org. Not many of those countries around sunny Australia or Africa and 24v is good in cold. I guess they want the vehicles from...

    12v Alarm install in 24v BJ74

    Sorry to deviate from your question Phil, but I just can't help but rise to this bait... As for tapping one battery with no balancing, that would be foolish in my opinon. Sorry, BoB. Phil's post asks, "HI. I have a 88 BJ74 and I want toinstall a sterio, alarm etc into." A stereo is not a...

    Well, not quite. Dieselbigot had a hell of a time and had to piece his together from a bunch of various parts... -kevin

    Toyota diesels in Hino commercial trucks?

    These guys are likely nuts... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64h8QHMiMXc And these prolly have a mess in their shorts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mq5mMVd3p1E&mode=related&search -kevin

    Injection pump

    Why can't we all just get along... :flipoff2: BlackSmoker: More info would be helpful. Likely so would the search, even if it is sometimes not that intuitive. Check your preheat system (maybe cycle this twice like isobie says), injectors and look for air intrusion (this could be worse if it...

    what's it worth?

    You can't drive to Peru. Not allowed to drive through that big park at the southern end of Panama. Well, I don't think so, anyway. Regardless, I think you really need to figure out exactly where you will be going and for how long (permanent or just a couple years). Go over a few months in...

    VIN Locations on HDJ81?

    I believe you will have to get the new vin, regardless. The Japanese imports don't have enough numbers in their vin, so you will need a new one with 19 numbers, which ICBC will issue. Good luck with your VIN search. -kevin
