60 toy ota

G'day. I started this project a few years back and up to a point where I need to delve into unfamilliar territory with the 80 Series and looking for resources. Build. -Body: 1977 FJ55 Landcruiser - Chassis 1995 1FZFE 80 Series, Auto, GXL. -...

I saw your post in UTOR just after you'd already got someone for testing, I'm within a half hour and would definitely have been all over that. Following along closely!

My image of Australia/New Zealand is such that you can just walk down to the corner store, pickup bread and meat for lunch, a spare Land Cruiser, fuel, even a pet Koala, then head back home. It truly is a magical place down under. Perhaps in...

Old thread but it's what came up in the search. I bought a CDL button from a 01 4x4 4runner and a spare hazard switch from a 96 LC. I swapped the labels like in the photo. Works great.

After sitting on it for a while I came to the conclusion not to pull the motor to rebuild it. Why not? There would be a lot of tasks I haven't done before. The bottom end seems fine. I got the pushrod cover off and the lifters are moving freely...

Dear Forum, My Cruiser is at a crossroads. I was on a trip from ND to MT after doing a lot of maintenance over the last couple months when she started running rough and eventually losing power at open throttle, which turned in a lot of vibration...

Seems a good option for those not willing or able to fork up their retirement for the DVS version. Looking forward to more user feedback

Pulled plug #2 and no spark. I ordered the cap and rotor and I’ll try to track down some new wires as well. Will update when I install

Timing, compression, fuel, air. Take out a spark plug, plug it into the wire, and hold the tip against a metal surface while cranking. If it sparks, you've got spark. If not, cap and rotor are good starting places, next would be ignitor Timing...

You couldn't wait another 5 months to make this a 20 YEAR THREAD REVIVAL

Still got some more hacking to do with the brackets for it to sit a bit more flush, but, its in! I need to play with the colors a bit more to find what matches better

I laid down epoxy primer/sealer, filler, and seam sealer, then epoxy again (3 total coats of Epoxy sealer. On the underbody, wheel wells I sprayed raptor liner. Tires will fully clear the firewall and inner fenderwells, radius arms, etc, happy...

In the states the mentality is completely different. We often refer to the dodges as fancy engine creates because, aside from the manual tranny, everything surrounding the engine is junk. The only difference seems to be that it's a rarity for...

why would he need the 3fe heater valve?

I literally replaced everything under the hood that was in any way a consumable including hoses, vac lines, the engine harness, spark plug wires, most of the sensors, and rebuilt/cleaned all the other attachments (alternator, starter, steering...

As a former electrician I literally used stripped 12g solid core copper wire I bent with pliers 🤣 (I wasn't doing a full seat, just had to do a half dozen or so and used what I had 🤷‍♂)

Not particularly :D

Kurt @cruiseroutfit, I choose to blame you and not ADHD for the fact that the rest of my work day was spent engrossed in learning about this expedition, and the radar tower they visited, and the DEW line of radar towers to which it belonged, and...

Couple more

too cool! Seeing the artic trucks was one of my favorite parts of visiting Iceland.

Not sure of its been said yet but the useless cubby for the later dash would be awesome to iterate with

That's crazy. As a data point I have that exact truck, minus the lockers, I'm planning on listing for probably only a few grand more than that. No rust, mechanically refreshed, and out west where most examples look far better than what you're...

From what I've heard you'll be glad you have them. Interested to see what others say

A few questions that come to my mind: what's your center hub/wheel to bottom of fender flare measurement on the new springs? are the old springs cut or broken? is that upper bump stop a little taller than normal or is it stock/standard height...
