    For Sale  1999 Toyota Land Cruiser, Newington NH, (not mine) 723K miles

    Interesting listing. I have no knowledge of this truck but felt Mud would appreciate it. Someone spent some $ keeping this thing running in this neck of the woods. Is that a frame repair I see? Hmm would never know by those smooth welds. :rofl: John

    Is this worth messing with - oil leak?

    I don't see oil on the threads of the oil pressure sender. If it wasn't tight would expect it to migrate down the threads. Replacing the sender isn't hard, but might be prepared for dealing with brittle connectors. I replaced oil pressure sender (83520-60040) recently and replaced the wire as...

    Intro Thread / Hoping I didn't buy a 30K lemon...

    Agree with lots of the folks looking at the pictures here. Many things are out of place and random nuts and bolts raise some serious concerns. The engine bay is interesting and would look at the vin plates as my gut tells me this truck has more miles than advertised. My shifter is not as...

    HVAC issues tsb for servos. How hard to do myself?

    I ordered the servos and parts to do this for the code given following the tsb guidance. Planned to take the dash out when I had a block of time to work on it. Then my wife finds that the issue went away. I haven’t tried pulling codes etc because it has been working. So will look again in...

    Been a lurker for awhile, might have found one but worried about rust..

    Woolwax is thicker than fluid film and doesn't have the same smell. That is what I have moved to. But any of these products will help keep the rust from getting worse John

    Frame & Chassis Sandblasting looking for suggestions on protection

    I like Eastwood rust encapsulator and then top with their chassis black. Specific for this application and cheaper and easier than por15. Good luck. John

    Always a bummer to see it listed here to 11000 and craigslist for 9K I have a kid in Bellingham I was tempted to send to look at it but concerned that there is a mud premium.

    Differences in rear door panel 2016-18 vs 19+

    Anyone have any info on the differences in a door panel for rear doors? I have a 17 and found a panel from a 19. But seems there was a change based on toyota parts sites. Don't know if it is a major issue or something small and cosmetic. My dog messed up my drivers side rear door panel...

    HVAC issues tsb for servos. How hard to do myself?

    I have a launch code reader that lets me get down some of the tech stream hole. I had one servo showing a reading different than any other. First time I pulled codes there were several but they went away and one persisted. The dealer says they flashed it and tried but to no avail. But I...

    HVAC issues tsb for servos. How hard to do myself?

    So one of my 2017s has the dreaded servo issues. So when starting ac or heat Isn’t on takes minutes to turn on and defaults to 75 degrees. I found the tsb and the repair campaign but unfortunately I never got the mailing regarding this as my wife had been ignoring it for months. Now my truck...
