This past June my driver's door lock went on the fritz and i wasn't looking forward to spending big dollars to fix it. Then i stumbled upon this thread and 7 dollars and 2.5 hours later my door lock is fixed. I do have a 2005 so i had to mod the motor shaft that had the brass fitting. That...

Finished a reboot and bearing pack yesterday. These instructions and comments were very helpful in getting everything put back together. Upon attempting to insert the inner shaft, I found it difficult to get it lined up so i used a prybar to lift the tulip and to align it. Once this was...

I had the problem of the display not going into night mode. went through the nav manual and didn't find any clues as to how to get it into night mode. did a quick search and found this thread. The display settings are normal and normal, all i did was move the dash light dimmer from full...

Is something happening here? ksl.com - Ad Listing I hope these are your axles and that we are going to be seeing this beast riding high soon. :cheers: or :crybaby:

they are the 275/70 r18s I was going to go for the 285/75 r18 (35.5s) but we mounted one up and the front tire hit the rear pinch weld and I did not want to spend the $$ to do a gear change. I also thought the 275s would deliver better milage with the smaller tread width and less tire hight to...

Thanks :)

unfortunately when i bought the rig it had 22" momos. I picked up the wheels on ebay with the caps and lug nuts. a 1-1/8" hole saw took care of the grease cap clearance issue. I like the flush caps over the org LC ones that stand off a bit. I have since painted the grease cap to match the...

I had mine powder coated. I didnt want black. something to match the bumpers and running boards. dont remember the actual color but if anyone is interested i can find out.

It has been about 2-1/2 months.... is there an eta for the new bumper?:bounce: how bout some teaser pics?:cheers:

For those reasons I think leaving it in place makes the most sense.

Has anyone modified a tank to fit and 03 or newer with the canister?

To answer the Monkey's question, the Front Runner tanks have the same issues with the charcoal canister above the spare. I have one sitting in my garage and have been measuring and making drawings to see how much of it I will have to cut away to make room for the offending item. My welding...

So I drove past the Portal Tek during lunch and the 80 is in the shop under a cover saw the back end and the white steel spoke wheels. It seems that someone gave them a heads up. They were actively working on a tube buggy and there were a number of FJ40s in the lot but I did not see the...

It would seem like a call to Portal tech is in order. Looks like wheels off an old 40 have opted for newer cruiser.

Went to Portal tech's web site and they list a utah phone number Portal-Tek L.L.C. 801-589-2028 no address. is listed and no one ever answers the phone the phone book has them as unlisted so you cant get an address. So I go to the Utah dept of Corporations and it shows that Portal...
