    Where to Put a Bussmann RTMR Fuse/Relay Block

    Thank you! That is actually exactly where I'm putting mine... though it will go low and in between fuse box 1 & 2. There are four threaded holes on that wall (all threaded the same). The holes aren't perfectly horizontal though so some mockups will need to be made before bending 0.1 inch...

    Accidental Redline GL-4 75w in Transfer Case

    Lol, I gave up.. the MTL-LV was a 70w/75w oil as a direct replacement for Toyota LF Transfer Case oil... I think I must've been looking at 80-series tech forum when I ordered it. Not specifically recommended for the 100-series. My manual asks for a GL4 or GL5 75w-90 as does the service...

    Can't find synthetic SAE 90 gear oil

    I’ld like to resurrect this regarding toyota LF 75w and 100 series transfer cases. I’ve just put in a direct replacement for that spec put in my transfer case (redline MTL-LV; 2006 lx470) and am wondering if that was a mistake.

    Accidental Redline GL-4 75w in Transfer Case

    Thickness question not resolved but GL4 or GL5 is allowed in the TC per the following... https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/service-specifications-fluids-land-cruiser-uzj-hdj-fzj-hzj-100-series.50285/ The next one has really bad formatting but also allows gl5 or gl4...

    Accidental Redline GL-4 75w in Transfer Case

    I just spent the last few hours buttoning everything up to come and double check my fluids... I put Redline 'MTL-LV' a GL-4 oil in the transfer case. Come on here and everyone says GL-5 is the ticket. How worried should I be? Should I dump it without even trying to drive it and go get a GL-5...

    transmission fluid change

    This and a few other posts have been super helpful! I do have a couple of questions and wanted to confirm a few things before getting parts: I need to get the RED fipg for the trans pan (00295-01281)? Or is there a new part number for that? What about the rubber gasket Toyota 35168-60010...

    Front Runner Rack Parts

    ok, called in this morning and pieces were available and I did buy but dang was it a bit expensive for one slat and one end cap: $240 shipped. Process was easy over the phone and the guy gave me 10% off but still that was kinda spendy.

    Front Runner Rack Parts

    Just to add, one came installed on a 100 series I bought. First time I tried to use the t-slots the recommended 8mm bolt chewed through the aluminum inside the channel with very light torque. It was a pita to remove the bolts after that. I now need a two new slat including one of the combined...

    Snap ring thickness

    I see a lot of feeler gauges but no ranges that we should be looking for. I just put one in from a variety pack that is basically a perfect fit: no gap whatsoever. But is that too tight? And conversely, how loose is too loose?
