Hey @psilocyBen , @kbahus used a 15/64" drill bit. My math is diameter = (15/64") * (25.4mm/") = 5.953 mm, so closer to 6mm than 5 mm. IIRC there is some play (extra space) in the recessed channel that holds the rod. So you might be ok with either but I would try with the 6mm first. To...

I cannot remember, and am hundreds of miles from the vehicle, but here are my thoughts: -the underside of the plate is kind of odd-looking, so that might not be itself an indication. I can't answer your question as to whether the wear is too deep. However... -IIUC the issue is that the pin...

Can anyone enlighten me about the difference in the "lifetime" units? E.g. I just bought a 2003 and my mom has a 2005 my brother bought her a few years back. I'm going out to visit and take a look at maintenance issues. I've seen two schools of thought: -dilute and roll: 2-3 qt every other oil...

@abuck99 Thank you sir, and sorry all for the misplaced post!

Hello All, I believe this is the appropriate forum for a (specific) new member intro. Accidentally posted in the J100 Land Cruiser forum first (doh!) So, greetings! We just bought a 2003 GX 470 in pretty clean shape, about 168k with the belt/pump done in the 70's (miles that is ;)) We're...
