All the lower oil seals were replaced four years ago. It includes three keys. There are steel guards over the front and rear lights. All the windows have etchings for Security. There are guards on the front doors to prevent damage from hitting other cars or objects. The exhaust and catalytic...
I’ve been a member of this community for several years now, people on here appreciate a Land Cruiser more than the average Joe. The brakes are new in the rear and brake lines flushed every spring. See the Dorkel in the pics. It has an ARB front bumper with a 12,000 pound Smittybilt winch with...
My mechanic can't find one. I ordered one online and a few days later they said it's not available. Anyone have suggestions, used or new, for the part?
Half that plastic jacket is missing from the throttle cable. Because I already have some lube in the garage and no throttle cable I'm going to try the lube option.

I've been having a problem with my 80. The RPMs will stay between 1300 and 1500 when at idle unless I lift up on the gas pedal. I've tried lubricating the cable from on top of the engine block and pushing it back and forth several times. I've done this several times over the last few weeks. It...
Insurance covered the windshield repair. Portland Glass charged more for an aftermarket windshield than Safelite for OEM glass. The crack slowly grew each day after the strike. Driving home with the growing crack with the family downwind was not an option. Luckily my wife doesn't notice or care...
It was an awesome trip. Wifie said we couldn't take my 80 so I didn't even look for trails. Let's list Portland Glass as a site to avoid. I adjusted the wiper with a 14 millimeter socket when we got home and it's all good. Before installing the windshield Portland Glass couldn't tell me the...
We traveled to Maine for a family vacation last week. Our LX570 windshield was hit by something on the way there and had a 1 1/2 foot crack across the right side. After the initial windshield installation I noticed that the seal at the base of the windshield was not flush at the sides. I opened...
Our 200 series just picked up a crack in the windshield. Safelite cost is $431, oem is $558. Just for fun I called the stealership and it costs a little over 1000 not including 5 hours of labor. That's no typo- five hours of labor.
It's costs $30 to ship 2 banjo bolts to my door from the above site and $18 for the local stealership to order them next day arrival. Stealership wins this time.
