I am driving the 07 100 series and am dealing with some similar issues. I have had the fuel issue that has been mentioned twice over the last couple of years. First time, had family in a fully loaded vacation cruiser going up US 395 in Calfiornia. Cruising speed was around 70. However, when...

1613 popped up today. Cleared it. Several 1000 miles since last occurred.

Just wanted to give an update for the Gen 2 unit that I soldered in. I will occasionally get error codes, which is frustrating, but with an OBD II reader installed and the app on my phone, I can clear the error and life goes on as usual. It will go into limp mode however. Not a huge deal...

I can only tell you what my issue was and maybe it is similar. I have a 2007, fully armoured with skids underneath. the fuel tank and lines are behind the skids. While driving in the desert, during the day, over 100 degrees, going up hill, with four adults and all their luggage, we had no...

A few years ago, drove mine up hwy 395 during a very hot spell. Parked the car at a rest stop and the fuel in the lines vaporized, it wouldn't start. My wife gave me "I told you to get a newer vehicle". Once it cooled down, it ran just fine and has ever since. I have full skids underneath...

Very nice. My wife took my cruiser for a spin the other day as I was washing her Genesis g90. She said she liked sitting a bit higher which gives me the green light to look for a new(er) cruiser for her (me). The dealer of course said that there is a 15k markup, so maybe I will wait a bit.

Here are some answers that I found while unfreezing the transfer case shifter. FYI, driving a 2007 100 series, US version. I did drill holes in the center console area to access the two bolts attaching the retainer to the top of the transfer case. I also notched out a bit the circular opening...

We are less than 5000 and there is snow just not a lot. Holcomb probably has much more.

Look on Craigslist. I found some really nice ones for the correct width but with larger circumference and just put them on and cut to length. Paid 75 but they are worth much more, they have the asphalt destroying cleats on the rungs. In Crestline and roads, paved, are all clear.

Toyota just called and said the parts are in that I will need and might need. If I have time this weekend I will drop the skid plates, lower the transfer case, remove the shifter assembly, free up the seized parts and replace, it is just finding the time.

My baby is stuck in 4h. Waiting on parts. Is this a 4h trail?

Stuck in 4h. With shifter disconnected, case will shift. To remove, from what I am reading, is disconnect shift lever...from shift lever or from transfer case shifter? Remove two accessible bolts from the hole in the floor. Drill holes or lower and support the transfer case to remove other...

Problem: Can't get out of 4hi. Removed the center console, lubricated all that I could see, nothing. Remove the linkage from transfer case to shifter, case will go into 4hi and 4lo but the shifter is stuck. That was a big relief knowing that the case itself isn't the problem but I still need...

I still think that just cutting the dang thing is super easy and fast, no new holes, unless you want to save worn out shocks.

While your down there, lube u joints and drive line
