Sorry -- sold.

I have a pair of Old Man EMU 2850J springs with the factory box. Bought them about 6 months ago, and only drove the truck once since, but have now switched over to a Slee 4" Lift system. Southern California -- pickup would be best but can ship at buyer's expense. $100

As far as I know truck is from US (built in Japan). '97 Land Cruiser. with lift-up rear door. Tag actually says it is an FZJ80L-GNPEKA, though partsouq does not list that exact designation. Photo of tag attached.

I am in USA

Looking to buy some replacement parts, and Partsouq.com tells me (by VIN) that my '97 is a FZJ80G-GNPGK , but then in the parts listings page for that model there are two versions of some trim parts listed for '95-'98 vehicles -- one says LUB and one says VXL -- how do I know which is correct...

Thank you.

Thank you. Sorry if got posted multiple times. My first classified.

'97 with pin 7 mod and CDL switch. Had it offroad last weekend, and when in low range the 1st-2nd shift sometimes didn't happen until 4K RPM. I had no time to dig into it this week so I had a local well-regarded transmission shop take a look. They confirmed the problem, but claim the...

I upgraded my '97 80-series to 4.88 and have the factory 4.11 sets for sale. They appear to be in perfect condition -- vehicle had about 90K miles when they were removed, and was rarely used off-road. Toyota replacement 4.11 gears are extremely expensive, and I understand aftermarket is not...

PCV Mod Never mind my request for an explanation...I found the PCV 101 thread. Bob Garner said they did it the way they did because they could just connect to the OEM fitting.....

Future of superchargers I did get to communicate with Bob Garner again, and he said the future of the 80-series superchargers is unclear, due to low demand. As for the discussion about PCV routing, I am not sure I understand the issue, but he said that CruiserDan is the one to talk to. Can...

I have followed all the threads here about cooling on 80-series with SC, and agreed that the 190 thermostat made sense, as the 160 TRD recommends would only delay overheating a bit, and the engine was designed to run at 190. BUT, I had a long talk this morning with Bob Garner, who is the...
