Rifleman

Sorry to say i can't offer you a web site because i don't have one. I use to own my own machine shop and that clamp was a quickie job that i made up for myself with no intent of ever making one for anyone else. Plus since i moved out of Phoenix 5...

The only way i know of to reach 88 MPH in a land cruisers, is to drive it off of a cliff, and hope you catch a tail wind on the way down.

Yes I wrote that, and in fact i only used a home made "hose clamp" that i made out of stainless steel to clamp the canister lid in place and no sealant of any kind. This setup has been working for me for years.

Rust, man i hate rust! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but what your dealing with here is a MAJOR SAFETY issue, and you don't want to take any shortcuts when it comes to safety. So if it were me, I'd replace all the fuel hard lines so your...

Engine vacuum decreases as altitude increases, roughly by about 1 inch of mercury (Hg) for every 1,000 ft of elevation gain, due to lower atmospheric pressure and air density. So with an average elevation of 6600 feet in Tijeras New Mexico where...

Yes you are correct, that would in fact work.

The original factory sensor kit P/N 89465-60110 is now NLA, but the good news is, one of the O2 sensor's from that kit is still available. That sensor's P/N is 89465-69115, and it happens to be the one with the longer wiring harness so it will...

Just as an FYI those adapters would not of worked. His trucks O2 sensors are held in place with 2 threaded studs, they are not the screw in style.

Let me amend your quote just a little bit. There are two types of land cruiser owners, those that stay on top of their cooling system maintenance, and do a complete coolant change and flush every 2 years. Or the other type of owner, who...

What codes is it showing? Is it code 25 or code 26?

I live in the hot, and dusty desert southwest where it can get to 115 degrees in the shade in the summer time. So i change my engine oil and filter every 2500, to 3000 miles. When it comes to other fluids, i change my front, rear, and transfer...

StaticTorque, Just in case you don't already own this tool, you'll need it for the lock ring when you remove, and reinstall your rear axle bearings.

Since you can't use cad to design your bumper, you can always do it the old fashion way. Use a tape measure, pencil, and some graph paper to draw up a small scale blue print. Then use math and geometry to prove that your design will work when...

I think you'll be able to fab most of the items you want using a limited amount of tools if you have a metal chop/cutoff saw, mig welder, a hand drill, along with a set of drill bits and a set of threading taps. The one item you won't be able...

Do it yourself can be done for less money, and you can end up with a nice finished product. But here's what most people don't think about before they start a project like this from scratch. First do they have the required skills to engineer...

What i did, i put a extra thick reinforcing steel plate on the outside of the steel factory bumper. That plate is sandwiched in between the swing outs base 2X3 inch steel tubing, and the bumper. Along with the above i put a steel reinforcing...

I built my own double swing out for less then 700 bucks in total cost for all the materials used to make both sides. I made the tire swing out first as proof of concept, then made the gas can swing out as a mirror image of the tire swing out...

I just wanted to see the location of those balls. We use to use "Mallory Metal" in the crankshaft throws to balance the crankshaft, so i wanted to see if what you were talking about was something along those lines...

Photos of their location on the crankshaft would be helpful

This is one addiction where i hope he has access to a high limit credit card, and an understanding wife, he'll need both.

Yes they will work, but they were ZERO FUN to install, and ZERO FUN to remove! My suggestion to you, buy the one that replaces the fuel pressure regulator, you'll thank me later, and you'll be much happier that you bought that one.

Just a head's up, I own, and have installed both the straight, and angled banjo bolt style of fuel pressure gauge connector on the end of our land cruisers fuel rail. They were both a pain in the ass to install on that fuel rail.

It's the diverter valve for the rear windshield washer, since the hose is disconnected it means that the valve is bad and that's a very common problem with that valve. Below is a link to a thread for a aftermarket valve that lasts and is much...

I'll kind of warn you, getting to that factory banjo bolt at the back of the fuel rail can be a pain in the ass to reach.

Factory Toyota axle seals are the only way to go if you don't want to have to do this job over again in a few thousand miles.
