Well I decided to fire the parts cannon at this thing. Replacing everything.

Just get the OEM line, you'll know it fits and works.

They seem fine. End links and bushings are new within the last year too, so shouldn't be an issue.

I have towed all kinds of stupid stuff with cruisers. An 80 with an 80, a 100 with a 100. Only on city streets, out of necessity when I had no other choice. I absolutely would not tow anything over 5k with one for any distance. When I towed an 80...

Just an update: I've decided to look for a much smaller trailer (under 3,500 lbs. dry). I went to see one today and test towed it around the block. It pulled it great, except for the fact that I felt a little herky jerky sometimes and I'm...

First look and initial test fit. Very impressed by the quality of the sliders.

I have an old radiator that I swapped out last year (leaned up against the side of my garage, ha) that has those fittings, I can check for you tonight if you'd like. Feel free to PM me.

One long piece, and if I remember correctly some of it is over the fuel tank and runs along the frame . It's challenging to put into position. Thread: Brake Tubes and fuel lines 2000 Lexus LX 470

Is the entire line one long piece or is it in sections?

My scale: NEW OEM Year OZ. 06-07 87.4/88.1 03-05 90.1 98-02 ? I've not had a new. I've never replaced one. I find the bad...

Old CC weight compared to new. Indicates, how badly saturated old was. The added weight, is due to saturation of charcoal. I keep a log of these weights. Which helps me "know" when R&R of CC was correct/justified.

See, THIS is why I love this community. Gull-wing mounted AT4's AND a roof mounted 50 is where it's at, and I owe it all to you @ODSTbee

Hello all, I'm not much of a forum poster, preferring to stick to reading and observing, however this particular 100 Series is proving to have had a modifying effect on my behaviors. I previously owned a 2003 Gen 4 4Runner, but after owning it...

welcome, and cool pics ! I love the part of the world you live in. southern Oregon is a magical place

or you could just buy new ones , they are avail from Toyota and relatively cheap

Far as I can tell, the later FCT-075 black hub fan clutch can get a fluid replacement to thicker silicone, but there isn't any opening temperature adjustment. Just remove the eight screws, drain the lower-viscosity fluid and replace with 15,000...

Has anyone done a rebuild with the updated FCT-075 fan clutch in the 05+ 100s that can share what fluid weight and volume they used? Seems like every writeup is for the older style FCT-021 fan clutch which is thinner than the updated part.

I replaced these link ends on my truck last year. I used Napa because we were getting a delivery at work from them so it was easier and alot cheaper. I do agree OEM is the best and I am waiting for these to break. No lift so they may hold up. I...

you can by using a multitester and heat source like a heat gun. That part is inexpensive, so to rule that out I just replace them especially chasing an overheating issue.

Check the swaybar links at the ends of the bar, the bushings in those usually fail before the frame bushings. Thread: When & how to replace stabilizer bar, bushings, cushions & links (AKA sway bar)

Fair enough, I'm anticipating it but I want to prioritize these lines first and then see what happens. But thanks for the input.

Not a good idea to tow over the towing capacity, especially by 20% above the rating in a 20 year old vehicle…and long distance, no. It’d be different if it was around the corner to you boat launch or campsite, but 400-700 miles? Hell no. Get a...

That's call an "overpressure event" and is meant to protect the AHC system -- when the AHC pressure gets too high, it drops itself into LOW position. It's not an unusual occurrence for these vehicles at this age, as the original springs...

Rescued this pavement princess from Denver Colorado in March. A 2007 100 Series with only 97,000 miles — bone stock aside from bumpers, wheels, and a roof rack, Texas sun-faded, and full of potential. I wanted to make it mine before I shared it...
