    Replace Fuel Injector Plugs - question.

    I have a set of six connectors that I'd gladly send you for the cost of postage. Drop me a message.

    Replace Fuel Injector Plugs - question.

    But if yours are as brittle as most, you could just crush the plastic and it'll crumble. Ballinger motorspors sells the plastic housings cheap. Put the factory pins in the new plastic connector and job done.

    Australian door cards

    The Australian Door Cards are set up to reuse the factory lower storage bins. I left mine off, but that was a choice I made. Oops, guess you are talking about some other product.

    keith's FZJs & questions - your wisdom appreciated.

    I haven't done it with this, but I have reupholstered motorcycle seats (fabric cover, foam, plastic backing) and an electric stapler make short work.

    Rigd Swing Out Carrier vs. Bell Fab tire cabin tire mount

    I did get the molle panel, and I find it useful in combination with a emu wing cargo window. It was a pain to access prior to that. It makes for quick access for some recovery gear and first aid supplies.

    Rigd Swing Out Carrier vs. Bell Fab tire cabin tire mount

    I run the bellfab interior tire carrier and recommend it without hesitation.I'm on 35" mud tires and the spare fits great.

    My other poor financial decision: 1994 FZJ80 land cruiser

    Give it a shot, you may be surprised the shenanigans you can get up to with 35s and a couple if inches of lift with lockers. I haven't found the obstacle that stops mine and it is similar: 2-1/2" Icon, 35" STT Pros. , ARB lockers. I'm more limited by driver skill than anything else.

    Anyone recognize this 80

    I suspect that it hangs low because it is the style for the '93-94 where it has a deep double cat and this is why the skid is like that. It may have a '95+ style cat so the skid could be higher. That is my situation. I've thought about cutting and modifying mine, but haven't gotten that far.

    Window Rocket - who’s tried it?

    You are all spoiled by modern vehicles. Back in 1994, this was state of the art, and plenty fast. I'm plenty happy with how mine work and they're completely stock.

    Starting down the 80 series path

    '93-94 gets 1FZ-FE, full float rear, front and rear disks, no airbags, and easily defeated ABS and LSPV. It boils down to what you plan to do with it and what is important to you! Lots of other differences (ecu, maf vs map, pair vs no pair, OBD II vs OBD I, and on and on). This has been well...

    Starting down the 80 series path

    Every 80 has a CDL, it engages when you put the transfer case in low. The addition of a factory switch to an existing wire harness makes it switchable. The "pin 7 mod" adds increased flexibility.

    Window Rocket - who’s tried it?

    Replace the window runs, make sure everything is adjusted properly, and it will work fine. This is a bandaid.
