This is just blatantly wrong.

Bigger hammer😉🤣

The FJ73 that started me on the 70 series. Here is a pic of it from when I owned it previously. Glad you are rescuing it @joekatana. No better person than you for that job.

Slowly finishing up the FJ to HZJ swap on this 73 and took it out on it’s first test drive today . Swapped the rats nest that was supposed to be a oem wiring harness out of it and installed a 24 volt wiring harness from a Euro spec HZJ73 that...

V6 T100, or V6 4Runner gen two that's for calipers, slight trimming will be required of the dust shield. Otherwise the only thing I can think of would be from a 60 series

I've stopped using amayama because they list parts as available then later say it isn't, where as other sites haven't done that in my experience.

The blower is easy to remove, as you probably already know 😉

I tested a 6V and it fried in like 7-8sec. To test remove the metal bar that connects the glow plugs and test for continuity between the end of the plug and head

Test your glow plugs? If Wilson switch you will need 11-12V glow plugs.

I have driven an ‘88 LJ70 for eighteen years. Used primarily in S Italy and driven hard in +40C summer months, I have never had even a hint of overheating. So I expect you will not have problems in Montana. Make sure and let the Turbo cool down...

I see toyota followed your lead on putting a 2.8 in a 70 series. Hats off to the innovative, influencer troopy driver that you are! You got em beat though- yours is a manual!

All while this is going on, we were struggling to get a customers 1HZ to run correct. We threw the book at it. So since my truck at this point was basically a parts rig, I pulled my engine and installed it into the customer truck. This is...

I used this as an opportunity to finally do a lot of things I've been putting off. Hard working on your own stuff when you aren't getting paid for it. I removed all 10 or 14 or whatever windows and paid about $1200 to get them ceramic tinted...

Been awhile, but there have been some big things happening. First, my Valley Hybrids rebuilt transmission broke a tooth after 20K. I mentioned it was making noise in neutral since day one pages ago. Tell tale sign of a bad input shaft bearing...

banana nut muffins identification guide got my new tank all installed, only had to re-use the filler neck rubber flex section. Was hard as a rock so I boiled it in water for about 10 mins and it was nice and flexible again. :) I had a bit of...

They are not made specifically for 70 series, but have options for specs and lengths

Ironman 4x4

Bilstein 5100 come in different lengths. KYB makes difficult options

I was also going to suggest that 🤣

Spent the holiday weekend with family in Whitefish, on Saturday we took a drive up into the mountains and encountered much more snow than we expected. The plan was to drive over Red Meadow Pass in the Whitefish Mountain Range, by about 5000'...

Can you heat up that section and and take out that bump? Might not look too good afterwards 🤣🤷‍♂️

Christmas has arrived early! After spending more than two weeks in a Bulgarian postal sorting warehouse my Webasto Thermo Top C finally made its way to Montana.
