Before cleaning, the switch wouldn't turn on when held up by hand. CDL position before install the motor: H4/L4 position before install motor: After reinstalling it, it's amazing. It used to take 5-10 seconds to turn on, and sometimes...

This is how Prado’s are made, right?!? Brought one home today, we figured it was time to add a “her’s” to the garage. Thanks a lot to @32cls6speedmt who had a lot of great advice and everyone who chimed in on my windshield thread. I guess...

I haven't seen DexII or DexIII on the shelf in years. I think there may be a quart of it in my father-in-law's garage :hmm:.

headliner dropped: DS front drain hose: DS sunroof:

Paid $975 for labor at an indy shop. Parts I got through the local dealership were $483 with club discount. That included the Toyota FIPG, spark plugs, heater t/hose combo, 2 heaters hoses at bell housing (oil cooler?), union pipe Gaskets...

After getting the $2300 quote at one independent shop, I ended up going to a Toyota off road shop (Tandem Automotive) in DFW. There it was $1823 out the door. Nice guys and seems like they did a great job.

I was just quoted $850 for my 2008 at Mountain States Toyota in Colorado. 1 independent shop quoted $1700 and another at $2300.

Hey all, Lurking this place for almost 6 months since I got my LC and figured i'd start posting about it. We were looking for a family hauler and debating between the Prado and the LC, and this thing came up at a fairly good price. For...

Pretty clean and the undercarriage has absolutely no rust. The PO was a 48 yr old woman who drove it for 14 years until she was 62. Does anyone know if it's possible to keep the AUTO button turned on all the time for the climate control? Right...

Grabbed a 1 owner, 124k mile 2011 for $27k. Texas owned vehicle its whole life. First time buying and shipping a car sight unseen. Still waiting on delivery but excited to finally get into a 200. Will post more pictures upon arrival. Will...

WOW……😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yeah...so, using the markings from the old TPS to align the new one did not work for me. Not even close. Based on the FSM instructions (thanks for those @Chango Blanco) the new one is significantly further to the left. I still don't feel like...

The oil pump on these do not "go bad" without serious engine damage. A loose crank shaft bolt will starve the engine from oil and cause a loss of power steering. If the bolt is loose, you may have been starving the engine of oil causing all sorts...

Are you being told this by your local dealer? If so, they are pulling the wool over your eyes. These were built in other countries until 2007 (the 80 series) so depending on which version you have, there are tons of parts available. I'm pretty...

Hello fellow mudders! I wanted to say hello and introduce myself and my newly acquired 1994 FZJ-80. Haven’t thought of a name yet but I’m sure my kids will help decide it soon. Maybe I’ll name it FMC like my mud handle. “FMC” in the aircraft...

I'm amazed it didn't do more damage. I remember this happening to a friend's 4Runner many years ago (3.0 L V6), the shrapnel destroyed the shroud, battery , hoses, and put a bunch of dents in his hood.

At Torfab for a cam tower reseal 🫠

What's year is the car? I saw this in some Toyota jdm sedans, have both obd1 under the hood and obd2 inside cabin

I don't have one and after reading what the OP did, I felt cheated. Reading further down I realized, that's what I get for not buying a higher level Cruiser. I went from feeling cheated to feeling cheap.

Stripped/ rounded out my front diff drain plug today. I ordered and already received new fill and drain plugs and the front diff drain plug removal tool from KAON. I’m glad I ordered it just in case. Welded the tool to the plug and was able to...

Playing with some LED backup bulbs.

Can't say I know much about transfer case leaks as it's not common on the 200-series. Is it coming from the input shaft, output shaft, case halves, actuation levers, drain plug, etc? Take off the transfer case skids, give it a good clean and...

@TeCKis300 is the transfer case dude around here.

Hi. where exactly is it leaking? from the actuator housing full of oil, or between the transfer case and the actuator? The actuator forks also have an internal seal, (dunno part numbers) Cheap parts, the job is hard 🍌 :)...

When the entertainment screen is turned off, the screen goes totally blank. When it's on, it looks like a crack. So it seems to be behind the screen? Is this covered under warranty?
