Hi there, no pics are yet available, project to start after X-MAS with frame off in order to get a full sight of what's going on. Will for sure drop you some pictures of the as-is situation of the frame. For now, I am interested in what I questioned before starting and purchasing any parts in...

Hi everyone, I’m reaching out to the experienced 100 Series owners here on IH8MUD, hoping to benefit from your knowledge before undertaking what will probably be the first and only body-off restoration of my Land Cruiser. A little background on my J100: 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser UZJ100, 4.7L...

Thanks for sharing. @DFXR My behavior is a bit different. I push the button in the center console, indicator light goes on, CDL locks BUT it does not unlock when pushing the button again. So I got stuck few times with center differential locked. After pushing the button dozens of times, driving...

Can anyone provide me the part numbers for the sensor(s) / switch(es) to be replaced? I do have a 1999 LC100 and the diagram on partsouq shows multiple sensors/switched and I don't know which one(s) to replace.

@willc I wouldn't call it noise, it's of course louder than w/o a rack, but the new generation is doing well I would say. If you have stuff mounted on top, then it's naturally louder. Also when having just the awning mounted like me, you have air turbulences and yes you hear it. But again, when...

No worries, it's most likely because of the different leg positioning between LC100 and Lexus 470. In fact my rack is mounted onto the LX470 position, as the LC100 position which is more in the front is not certified for roof racks 2m in length. Don't ask why... I purchased: Rhino Rack Pioneer...

It's the Rhino Rack RCL legs I use together with the Rack Gen with Zwiflock.

Hi @willc Same being daily driver and was looking for solution Tha allows me to fit in the garage and also in these tiny little underground garages in Europe - hate'em 😁 The best solution I got and thanks to this forum here is with the Rhino Rack and using the LOW feet. The rack is I would...

Hi guys Did swap the headlights against DEPO in my '99 LC100. My original ones had automatic hight adjustment with motors. The DEPO's haven't but that's OK. There are silver screws see pictures. Two on each headlight, one of these is hard to reach when headlight is fixed in position (there is...

@dealmaker I used the same serpentine belt size. The Tensioner worked. The slack was not an issue, I confirm. Just wanted to let you know that the tensioner pulley broke after 13000 km. Might be just coincidence but maybe there's a constraint.

Hi @xcmountain This is really strange…I have to report, that I did the full job three month ago. Serpentine belt and Timing Belt incl. all pulleys, waterpump etc. I ordered all parts by myself and my mechanic did the job. I ordered from Partsouq, there‘s only the original smaller OEM tensioner...

Hi folks 👋 Hope I can get some help here. On my J100, Built 11/1999, V8, I did all my service maintenance regularly. Every 15000km oil engine oil and all 60000km also differential oils and AHC fluid. My last big maintenance included all fluid changes. Means I let replace all differential...

Interesting to hear it's the same as in Europe. Toyota Dealers go far beyond usual pricing. Min +400%....crazy. It's a shame. We all have enough stuff to pay for and such dealers request just too much. But I have to mention, at least in Europe, there's a major player on the market who imports...

Hi all 👋 Does anyone know if there's a wind fairing available that fits the J100. I do have the Rhino Rack Pioneer 6 platform with legs installed. Rhino lists one only for the J200 series. Would be great if someone knows more. Thanks Marcel

Hi there As I am located in rusty region. Let me give you a simple advice for J100 answering your question. Rust Y/N For the J100 you just have to look at the latch of the hood. If this is rusty, forget about the car. Yours definitely has rust. Owners who really take care, the latch is not...
