Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 285/75/16 , now over 50K and still haven't been stuck - and great wet pavement traction. Would definetly buy another pair of these.

I guess I should have been more specific - are there different sizes AND different styles, or are there different styles that are all the same size/fit? I have seen threads and FAQ's about refinishing and repainting these and thought they are all the same? jay

Are there different styles, just called toyota and they wanted my VIN - said they had listing for 5 different center caps for 97 LC ??

So sad - wife (in our 97 FZJ80) was hit by an out of control uninsured motorist 3 weeks ago. Drivers side corner of bumper/fender/headlight assembly/radiator etc. all destroyed. Fortunately the airbag did not deploy even though the main frame support the bumper is attached to was bent a bit -...

thanks for all the suggestion, I am sure I could talk her through the changing of a fuse, especially since it is labeled. But with the Temp and Humidity on the Texas coast - I still need a recommendation on a Toyota mechanic in Corpus. They are going to be there a week and that is no fun without...

well, no change after being turned off 45 minutes. No apptitude for checking all the fuses either. I found this link - https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=90184&highlight=cluster - a bit disturbing as it describes her situation perfectly. Especially the part where it is 100 degrees and the...

I just got a call from my daughter that as she and my wife were driving into Corpus all the gauges went out at once in the crusier. It is a 97 FZJ80, 115K and I really thought I got it al spiffed up yesterday for them to take this trip to the beach. They had been on the hghway for 5 hours when...

Anyone had this problem. Not sure how it could be as the unit hasn't been pulled so no chance for crossthreading. Can it leak from inside the unit. any idea what a new one will cost, or if they are even available. thanks

I have had the low and high HIR from d.stern for almost a year now. No failures. I do carry a spare of each though. I think, at least compared to what I replaced (I don't know if they were stock or not) - that the high beams are a bigger 'abng for the buck' upgrade than the lows. I drive a lot...

My 97LC (non anniversary edition) has gray leather, no running boards either. Jay

My list, today - since I had the cracked windshield replaced last week. soon to be hole in drivers seat Poor sound - especially the POS subwoofer Centerlock sensor out - no light on the dash anymore, but 4L works fine. need a 285 spare to go with the REVOs more cold from the AC, it's hot...

Update - CT scan read completely normal. He isn't in any pain at this point either - EXCEPT I asked him when he last checked the oil and he couldn't tell me... so I go out and check it myself and the dipstick is dry!! New Pain! Drain and refill scheduled in the morning, and no truck priveldges...

HA - he did have some neck pain for a few days - also had belly pain and peed some blood so has had a CT scan. Not looking for a settlement, but if they offer....

My son wa dirive the 84 last week and a "student driver" marked car came to a complete stop in an open intersection to take a right turn. He was fortunatley able to stop before ramming the car but the minivan behind wasn't paying as close attention and rear-ended him. Traffic is usually moving...

I opened my drivers side front door yesterday and simultaneously heard a piece of metal hit the ground as the door kinda flew out of my hand and hit the car next to me - I picked up the steel pin that holds the door regulator onto the door jam, but the regulator ? ? , where did it go. Is it on a...
