I am knee-deep in trying to add a Kenwood DMX8709s to my 1996 FZJ80. I tried using the Metra 70-1761 and bypass the factory amp, but I am not getting any sound. My understanding was the truck shipped with the option to use amplified and non amplified. I thought disconnecting the amp and using...

Looking for one set of Bowfin Cruiser awning mounts......

96 FZJ80

I thought I read that it was a press-on fit after you removed the bolts and that it was difficult to re install and get leak free. It looks like there is a grommet that sits above the oring that is NLA. But I'm up for give it a try. I

I was taking it from the dipstick tube and it broke off in the dipstick tube. I am able to put in the dip stick and I fairly certain when I tried to fish it out that I pushed it out of the dipstick tube. My thinking and hope is that if that is the case it is should now be in the lower pan.

I want to preface this by saying I have learned the error of my ways, but there was a reasonable explanation for why I originally did what I did. The long story is that before investing in my truck, I wanted to get an oil sample to see if I needed to work on the engine or consider other mods...

Yes! I'll take front, rear and sensors if available.

I'm looking for a ABS harness for my 96 Fj80. I really just need the front, but I'd be interested in the whole harness if available.

Has anyone modified the bottom cushion seat bolstering? On my new truck the bolstering is hitting me on both sides and has kicked off some terrible sciatica. I love the truck otherwise but I can’t stand to drive it. And yes I test-drove it and no it didn’t bother me during the test drive. And...

That is possible as I know the grommet is in fact missing. I'm just kicking myself because I havd actually purchased the PHH kit I just didnt have a weekend that wasnt super hot or raining in the last 2 months.

I'm not sure on the accuracy, at just about the same time it also gave the code P0115 which seems to be the coolant temp sensor. I'm not sure if went off as a result of getting fried from overheating or vise versa. I'm going to have a mechanic take a look, but it wont be for a few weeks and hope...

Thankfully I live a little outside Boston.

I wouldnt say it is full on chocolate milk, but it def looks thinned out
