    New style TRD Pro 17" wheel on GX470 (PTR56-89210-F2)

    If you read that sellers description they answer your question, but its a NO. Hub bore too small / offset wrong, ect.

    Ohio as a possible relocation destination...any wheeling going on in the Buckeye state?

    Youre best bet is the Tar Hollow area or any of the LBL (land Between Lakes) / Kentucky / DBBB (Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway) stuff. The tar hollow stuff is all unmaintained roads, so knowing where to go and what is there seems very difficult to look up....its always just going with guys who...

    FJC or 100series

    Yeah I imagine so on the 4R...its the same as the FJC that Toyota supposedly says cannot be flat towed....though many do. I see youre also in Ohio.....noticed this black 07 up for sale this morning in the Marketplace. Seems like its decently outfitted for some exploration...

    Wiper Arms, what holds them on? **** see pictures

    Yeah I think they are like any old Chevy ect 'snap-in' style arms. Missing the clips. See this vid for a decent look at a similar arm.

    For Sale Cheapest way to ship tire+wheel from CA to NC?

    I used uShip (yeah, like the show Shipping Wars) in November to get 5 mounted wheels& tires from Kansas to my house in Ohio. It’s hit or miss. Takes time. If you, the seller, have the patience (tons of it), you can have your buyer make a listing on uShip or another LTL site. On uShip, they...

    Rust Prevention or reductions: Fluid Film Product any good?

    This is just your basic normal undercoating. Using that alone is arguably worse than leaving it with the OEM finish (looks nice forever until it rusts out from the inside). They even say right in their wording you should use a cavity wax with it, which is essentially what Fluid Film and other...

    US Spec. February 1990 Poverty 80

    This older thread seems to have some happy carpet customers, and they are still around from what I can tell https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/stockinteriors-com-fj80-carpet-set.656127/

    1998 diesel 1hdfte japanese mkt, with 187k miles

    If you are able to view this video, it appears to show a lot of the maintenance items. Looks like oil filter might be top-right-side of the block, accessed from under the hood. (If the preview image below shows, you can see it just next to the curve in the '5')

    Rust Prevention or reductions: Fluid Film Product any good?

    It doesnt get washed off very easily at all. I love Fluid Film....been using it on my FJC for about 10 years now and its looking great overall. I do dislike how messy working on it is, but thats about it. I didnt even reapply it this year since it only saw about 5-6K miles.

    Oil cooler options.

    Are you seeing high oil temps? Tons of heavy towing? Have a supercharger? This is typically not something the FJs really need. The 10+ technically have "oil cooler lines" that run on each side of the front of the engine...steel lines with big banjo fittings. They DO need a transmission oil...

    Rotating Spare

    I do the 5-tire on my FJC, but I would like to think I would do it on a GX as well. If anything, so that I could keep an eye on the spare's pressure, condition, and work the mechanism that holds it in place every now and then.

    PAIR valve is coming apart

    I know nothing of this part, but can the pin be hollow? Maybe use a roll pin if so. Keeps decent side tension at least. Or some JB weld lol

    Where to find GX460 switches?

    Just scrolling though Amazon there you can see there are basically two sizes.....a shorter one and a taller one. You would want the shorter ones. You still may likely have to do some trimming of the hole beneath the blank depending on its shape...sometimes they have some configuration of slots...
