    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    Sounds like it's the second option, thank you that's very helpful. I have slop and clunking on acceleration and shift into reverse. It's probably a bit of both the drivelines and the birfs.

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    It's pretty close to St John's bridge. It's not the shop that's in St johns near Willamette, I think that ones closed now. It's west side of the river. I'm sure you know the one.

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    You guess is as good as mine. Couldn't talk to the mechanic, just heard second hand through the receptionist. It's a pretty reputable shop that specializes in land cruisers that I've seen mentioned here as a good shop for the area

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    Thanks for the info y'all. I got a call back and the reason the frontend was suggested is because birfs are worn down and they just assumed I would need new bearings and everything else while they were in there. I didn't really get an explanation as to how they could figure that out, but they...

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    It was serviced in 2020, I've put about 10k miles on it since then, adding grease to the knuckles every now and then especially after water crossings

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    I feel like I gave a pretty good description of the situation and how I checked if it needs work. Seems like the people around here could read that and point out what I'm doing wrong. I can take a video, but I didn't when I was in the shop and don't know what to take a video of. What do you...

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    I'm trying to get more concrete diagnosis if my frontend is bad and needs to be rebuilt or if the shop just recommend it be done because they could. They acted like it was really bad and needed to be addressed ASAP, but from what I've read and understand it doesn't seem necessary. If my front...

    Shop recommended I rebuild my frontend

    I just had a land cruiser specific shop replace my belts because they were squeaking and my power steering belt was undersized. I like to have them do some of the cheaper maintenance so that I can get a second opinion on upcoming maintenance needs while they are checking things out. No...

    1991 Cranks no start

    I bought a used OEM unit. I believe the part number is shared with multiple vehicles of that era.

    1991 Cranks no start

    My multimeter was being borrowed so I couldn't so much testing last weekend, but I did some wire inspection. Cleaned up some grounds, didn't notice anything particularly suspect until I followed some red / black wires into the fenders. There were some HID headlight harnesses stuffed into the...

    1991 Cranks no start

    Thanks for the diagram and parts, Jon. I had a new fusible link on the way, but I'll add the junction box too. Now that I think about it, I think the electrical problems started pretty recently after I cleaned up and tightened a loose body ground.

    1991 Cranks no start

    I've been having some troubles with my 91. Starting from the beginning, a couple months back I drove it down the road 5 minutes, stopped it, tried to start a little while later Engine cranked, but no started. I popped the hood gave the EFI relay a love tap. Hopped on and it started. Ordered...
