Search this forum for York OBA, there's quite a few threads on engine driven compressors.

In case anyone is searching and finds this thread: https://www.acblockkits.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=84

I'm considering a York but I'd like to run it in place of the factory a/c compressor since I never use the a/c. The possibility of using the factory a/c unit as a compressor also seems pretty intriguing since the bracketry and clutch are already...

Agreed upon by the Dynamic Duo whose pronouncements sometimes resemble those of the Oracle at Delphi.

^^^^^ That’s a Bingo.

Expertly-crafted, succinctly vague, direct answers. :lol:

They always “elusively” state it.

Imagine, if you will: This is just a tiny tidbit of the 80 Series Land Cruiser slice of the overall Toyota Pie in @cruiserdan's knowledge base... [Cue theme from Twilight Zone...] :smokin:

No idea. Toyota rarely states what changes and why, unless they are addressing a specific known issue. It's no surprise that the 60262 functions in place of the 60260 because that is the most current version of that part.

I wonder what the different configuration upgrades might have been? Improved engine performance or emissions programming maybe? Different transmission firmware? If I recall correctly I went from a -60 to a -62 with no issues. Very interesting!

3 part numbers for 95-96. 89661-60260, 89661-60261 and 89661-60262. All manufactured by Denso. The 60260 supersedes to 60261 which in turn supersedes to 60262. These would be configuration changes, not vendor changes.

One of Toyota's foundational behaviors is "continuous improvement". It is company-wide. Part numbers change under two circumstances. The first is because of an engineering change. The second is because of a vendor/supplier change. In most cases...

So maybe it was just a vendor change then! That would make more sense. I was always quite worried that there was something I was missing with that ECU swap, but it's been at least 10 years and so far so good. I could never understand why the part...

I'm sure the 95 and up units were completely different than the previous models. Just wondering since there seems to be a few carryover items like the sunroof mentioned above and the oil sensor harness that seems to have gone from '92 through '96...

1994 model-year production ended in December 1994. 1995 model-year production began in January 1995. There was no "blending of leftovers".

Raptor liner or any spray on liner aids rust rather than prevent it. Some cheap paint would do better at preventing rust.

Cdan sir, are there any other early-transition 95 model differences that come to mind? It'd be nice to have some kind of record of them here! I'm sure a lot of it was just financial as they probably just used up parts overages that were already...

I too remember a change in the number of studs on the glass but I don't remember the specifics. I think the newer part number has fewer studs but works in the earlier truck. I replaced my sunroof glass about 10 or 12 years ago and that's when I...

IIRC, it's not the glass per se, it's the number of mounting screws (3 per side vs. 4 per side). The glass and seal are the same, but the mounting flange is integrated into the glass assembly. I may have the details wrong, I haven't looked at...

ScanGauge anxiety is real. Save yourself and save money! Stay OBDI.

That's really good to know, I wasn't aware the glass was also different. Thanks!

I have an 01-95 and an 07-95; I feel the part pain. Fortunately, I also have an 11-94 so, I'm not in bad shape. FWIW, the older sunroof glass, with the installed seal, fits until 02-95 and is available from time to time. The later glass is...

Joey said something similar about 'gage anxiety' back when he was having his overheating problems, but I think he was referring to the resistor mod to the factory dashboard water temp gage. I'd just like to keep a closer eye on everything since...

Just by the by, I believe they started installing impact bars (or whatever you call them) in the doors in 95 as well. You may be safer than you think. Do you have airbags/ABS in yours?
