FlyinFaded are you running longer radius arms up front? And when you say fenders, are you hitting the sheet metal body panels or the fiberglass/plastic outer fender flares? Up front you need longer radius arms (or relo brackets) to push the axle forward or you'll contact the rear of the rear...

That would be awesome! I could mail you one to scan if you don't end up having one.

Those could be a really good candidate for someone like @Outsane who sells 3D printed parts to make. I recently broke one of those on my 94 as well!

It's less of a real-time use, but a OBD-1 CEL code reader was what originally caused me to click on this thread. And I really like where you're going with coolant temp and alarms that can be set for any key values that are out of range. AFR would be a nice option for the turbo crowd. And for the...

I don't plan to ever part w/ my 80, but having a 79 series truck parked alongside it would be awesome.

It's simple supply and demand coupled with some emotion-based decision making. These are cool old trucks that can't be bought new. Most people (myself certainly included) underestimate what baselining a 30 year old vehicle costs. At post-COVID labor rates around $200/hour, those repairs add up...

Any supercharger kits that work reliably with the OBD-1 trucks? I have a '94 and the only option for forced induction that I've come across so far is the Cruisers and Company turbo.

Your new Land Cruiser seems to be in great shape if that's all it needs. New fluids are an important part of baselining and one of the easier things to do yourself. Consider fresh motor oil/filter, gear and transfer case oil, and transmission fluid (search "Rodney Flush") When replacing the...

You might also consider going with a narrower tire. A 255/85/R16 is still a 33" diameter but will take up less space than the typical 305 or 285mm wide tires. That will either give you more ground clearance or more interior room depending on where you end up mounting your spare.

The axles being a little off-center isn't a big deal, but I'd shorten the front adjustable panhard/track bar, as it sounds like it's over-correcting for the lift height. The 3" rear DVS bracket doesn't fully correct for the ~4" of actual lift you're likely getting in the rear, but should be...

I'm sorry to hear that you're also having such a challenging experience @Edwin573 . I literally just installed my drawers today after ordering them on 12/1/25! I've done one quick test drive and they seem solid, but it's been quite an ordeal to get to this point. When they did finally arrive...

If you're getting new rims, -6 would be the ideal offset with a ~35x12.5" tire when it comes to tire fit. 0 offset (stock) is fine but will rub if you ever go to 37s. -12 works well but will require a little more trimming on the fender flares. Going any wider (more negative offset) requires more...

You don't need any lift to safely run 35" tires and you definitely don't need adjustable rear control arms. It's the bumpstop extension and possibly some minor fender flare trimming that will make them fit on a stock rim w/o rubbing. It's usually just one small portion of the rear flare that...

I also have the 3L radius arms, ~3.5" lift, and stock driveshafts w/o death wobble. I did add a 3/4" spacer to my front driveshaft, which it looks like @efjayatee did as well. But I put several hundred trouble-free miles on mine before I added the spacer, so I wouldn't think that's the issue...

It looks great for what you paid. You definitely seem to have gotten your money's worth.
