Decided to go with the Factory refurbished starter via Cdan.

My bad. 1995 Toyota Landcrusier 4.5l. Was rushing because I've got to take 2 trips this week with the cruiser. Thanks I'll look now.

Hey, Went out this morning and my starter was a bit excited and just didn't want to stop starting. Disconnected the battery. Figuring this all has to do with the starter contacts as I've had this problem before. Question is this: Do I just replace the starter with one from AutoZone, or...

So here's the info: 1995 FZJ80 Been getting O2 codes for a while now indicating a bad cat has two in line cats between the O2 sensors have had a couple of people tell me that the cats were empty. had a muffler shop guy tap them with a hammer and they sounded empty (no idea - is this the...

Do you have a link to the install process? What was the model number and such of the ones you bought? I need to do the same.

Thanks! Thanks guys I'll check them out. Looks like I'll be calling CruiserDan shortly too. -6 yesterday and my driver side door handle broke off.....

Hey all, Took a rock into my passenger side headlight. It works but has a big star crack in it. Was looking into ordering a factory replacement but was wondering if there is any aftermarket parts out there. If you have aftermarket headlights installed in your 80 series could you provide a...

Anyone have any pics of their R&M Specialty Shower install? I have an 1995 FZJ80. I've talked to some and have an idea of where to start but I'd like to see it too. Thanks, Joel

Rideit, Nice setup! Very clean and seems very useful and practical while driving. Who are you pitting for? It's been a while but growing up in the SoCal area I used to go and pit all the races including Baja. I'm not that old but it's when Roger Mears and Walker Evans were still racing...

I like the idea of the hand held units but I don't like the weight or the ability of them for other than very short distances. With my Uniden SSB I was able to send and receive over about 15 miles through rocky terrain down in Mexico on a trip. Also, if I was going to go with a handheld I'd go...

Mine is a late year 95

has anyone mounted a different cb in the ash tray location other than the Uniden 510XL? Looks like the 520XL has the same dimensions but similar ones from Midland and such are the same width but 1/4 inch taller. It's dark now and about 10 degrees outside or I'd go and check out that area.

Good Stuff! Brian - that's a lot of gear you have in the front there. I don't know what else to say except that all that would probably drive me insane. Not sure where I would fit the rest of my family except strapped to the rack on the top. OffRoad - did you mean to post a link? Didn't see...

greentruck, Nice setup you have there. I have that Tuffy Console in my 79 CJ7 (sorry about the Jeep thing) but never thought about it for the cruiser. Your install looks great and very useful and practical. I'll definitely be considering that as an option as the added security would be nice...

Hey everyone. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Years. I would like to see pictures of where people have mounted their CB and Ham radios. I've searched the site but haven't found many pics (only about 3 different setups so far) What I've seen so far on this site and like is the...
