      60wag reacted to TomH's post in the thread LX450 Headlight Woes with Like Like.
      I pulled the glass on a Land Cruiser headlight but haven't gotten around to installing it on the broken headlight. Here is some info on how to remove the glass. Be sure to use plastic tools to pry the glass off. I've done a couple Depos and...

      Anyway. It’s solid now and no rust, and coated. Sounds like an anvil when hit with hammer. By far the most difficult piece was the wheelwell extension down from deck. it was a neat spiral form that took forever to curve properly and then a lot...

      Everyone has their own process but for those that haven't done it before here's one method for installing these studs, FWIW. Before installing new studs it helps to super clean (old/dirty) threads, run a thread cleaning tap down the hole, clean...

      The wheels are newer than 1990. Let's see a picture of the engine. Its either an older 3f or a slightly newer 1FZ. That impacts the sale price. I'd spend at least a couple hundred dollars on it to figure out what is wrong with it. Parting a...

      60wag reacted to Termite's post in the thread Power steering binding after rebuild with Like Like.
      Problem found and it had nothing to do with the steering. The vehicle has factory electric lockers. The front diff was actually showing Unlocked but remained in the locked position. I took the drive motor off, moved the rack to the right and...

      Sounds like the steering gear was never disassembled. I'd separate the drag link from the pitman arm to isolate the problem to either the steering gear or the front axle.

      Do the zip ties last? I would expect them to break after 5 years or so.

      I ran the 100 pads for a while. I eventually got some annoying vibration from the front brakes. I replaced the rotors and pads (Yellowstuff) and the vibration was gone. After the work, I was looking at the used 100 pads and saw a decent lip...

      Progress has been made on the coolers. A/C has been deleted, it hasn't worked in years and sourcing hard lines in northern Maine has been impossible.

      Would the +1 SAI angle make much difference? I imagine the "stanced" BMWs running around are way more than that. Do they wander all over the road?

      I ended up swapping to Delta 5L and it got me to +3 castor from 0 (with 3L)... So still not perfect but drives better. I think 2 more degrees would feel better. but i cant afford to keep swapping arms lol.

      No… they will be going away for something better… but still Toyota/aisin made Super close to having @efjayatee 93 done. A bit of testing then it will be available. Will be more expensive due to electronics Thought hard about water to air. End...

      Is the water for the intercooler part of the engine cooling system, or a completely separate system? It seems like engine coolant would be too hot to be useful.

      Got it fixed. Just unscrewed the handle from the inside and then carefully popped off that panel. The trigger had just gotten disconnected so all I had to do was pop it back in. Thanks again for your help!

      Does your sunroof rattle? Since you have the headliner out, you should have access to more of the sunroof mech including the rollers that get flat spots. The sunroof on mine def' rattles and I want to address it but its not worth pulling the...

      The oring isn't setting the postion of the endcap. I'd measure the protrusion of the preload screw sticking out of the endcap with a set of calipers before disassembly. If you can reassemble it within a couple thousandths, I'd go for it.

      That's the trouble with buying a running, driving rig for your donor... I'd be tempted to keep running it.
