    Current $$$ for tranny rebuild/replacement?

    For US models, (IIRC) the 91-92 FJ-80 used the A440F, the 93-95 FZJ-80 used the A442F (450-43LE), the 96-97 used the A343F; all made my Aisen. IIRC they may have started the switch during production runs on some years?? Correct me if I got the years wrong

    Power Steering Fluid & EGR Temp Sensor

    That fluid does look bad; was it the original?? Where did you pick up the Mobil DTE fluid?

    Truck Wont Warm Up Need Help

    The O-ring is of the type that is square cut, just sits ?in a groove (IIRC) in the housing before you drop in the T stat and then the top of the thermostat housing over it. Ditto what everyone has said; a few minutes/miles before the temp gauge moves or hot air starts to come out of the...

    Best key hide on an 80?

    I leave my spare key taped to my windshield, that way all the criminals who do not have internet access can steal my rig without having to go to a library to do a search on Mud to find out the best place to hide a key.

    90 HDJ81 windshield

    dieseldan; interesting about the fenders; assumed it was just grill, lights etc were different and the fender cut-outs were the same.

    Current $$$ for tranny rebuild/replacement?

    FredTJ; don't know were you get your's done or how many miles you put on them afterwards, but the average miles I have seen/heard about is less than 50K miles, often closer to 25K. I had a Torque convertor rebuilt by the "best" company in the country; lasted 15K miles. It is not just the...

    Current $$$ for tranny rebuild/replacement?

    Ditto; the tranny was abused somehow to need work at only 135K miles IMO; fluid leak, severe overheating, wrong fluid type, contaminated fluid (water from flooding), etc. I have never heard of anyone in the US who can rebuild these auto trannies as well as a new Toyota unit, other than maybe...

    90 HDJ81 windshield

    The HJ's never came to the US, only FJ's (petrol). Many of the models that were sold outside of the US had different interiors, manual transmissions, diesels, turbo diesels, some with different headlight set-ups, mirrors types and locations (on the fenders)----. Others may chime in with more...

    90 HDJ81 windshield

    X2 what CDan says about the gasket OEM only for sure; Ditto for OEM glass IME. Costs a bit more, but it is much better optically than aftermarket junk. The glass installers, when you call, will invariably tell you"glass is glass", which is for sure what their marketing people tell them to say...

    Intermittent Sound Low Acceleration

    When my spindle bushings apparently got dry I started to get a rough rumbly vibration under normal acceleration first drive in the morning, was not as cold as your temps, but much colder than normal for this rig. I put 1 1/2 tubes of 3% Moly fortified grease into each knuckle via the square...

    Correct lugnut torque

    That's it, thanks. I agree, never liked them, but always get my tires at SEARS, got tired of asking them to do things a certain way; usually just gets me the look. Same guys who stripped all my drive flange studs. Edit: crap, not sure if these are universal colors, but IIRC I have seen the...

    lagwagon, which bulb type are you saying is the correct type for the brake lights?

    Correct lugnut torque

    Anyone know the max torque of the orange pre-set slip-torque-wrench-sorta extension thingy that SEARS uses??

    Left turn signal goes on with brake application??

    1) The port installed module was disconnected from the system about two weeks ago. It has remained disconnected for two weeks. The symptoms got worse a few days ago, hence the trip to the dealer. The module is still stuck on the inside wall of the quarter panel, but not connected to anything...

    Left turn signal goes on with brake application??

    Here is the feedback from the dealer that looked at it today: The problem was in the black rubber 4 pole connector/plug, period. I had looked at it and saw some corrosion on the contact surfaces. What I had not noticed previously, and did not know to look for, was that the connector itself...

    Blackstone oil report, 11K miles.

    I talked to Blackstone today, they said it may take up to ?two weeks to get a kit. The guy said I could instead take any clean plastic dry bottle with a screw type cap (ie water bottle), pack it well, and send that in with the form that is downloaded from their site. Said they need about four...

    PPH done.. but now have a 330 code?

    Bad connector (search for it, I recall a few mudders have had just a bad connector that they fixed), or a bad wire or bad sensor? Someone who has experienced this will chime in. The FSM says for anything with a connector, one of the first things you can try is to disconnect the connector and...
