Buddy of mine has vertigo came put of know where now days if he gets under a truck lifts his hands up to touch anything and it's night night crazy stuff.

I have a 6l80 it rubs on the shifter bracket when suspension is really compressed, so that will be a easy fix. Sorry one problem I have is vertigo when looking up so I have to take pictures quickly while the world is spinning.

The problem with a forced induction v8 in a land cruiser is that it's in a vehicle that needs to sustain power for long periods under load without everything overheating. Unless it's used for just getting ice cream down the street of course...

I’ve had much better luck with the 6l90 than the 80, especially with an aftermarket tc and turning off tcc 1-4. If I get 50k out of a trans in any of my builds, I’m ecstatic. The engine it’s strapped to makes more than 5x hp what the 1FZ did...

I don’t know why people complain about how hard it is to replace the rack and pinion, all of the bolts are easily accessible. 😂

Hey everyone! Im still around! Finally got that heater core swapped out and dash re-installed, surprising only had a few screws left over! No matter how slow I went still have some extras! Another item off the list is I finally got the AC...

You know those mesh pockets on the back of your 80's front seats? The ones your wife jams full of wipes, CDs, or water bottles until they sag like Courtney Love's .... well you know what I mean. Anyhow, here's a fast fix for them. The...

Mine is a 6l80, I’ll get a picture for you

I used stock shaft which I have found rubs. Gonna look at it this weekend

Rostra cruise control is the same that Dakota rebrands and raises the price. Does anyone with a 6l80/90 have any pictures of their front drivelines? I’m looking for inspiration. Did you use your stock shaft, or did you have to downsize? Seems...

Thanks, still not sure if I was lucky to find it or I was smart enough to figure it out. Either way glad it's fixed.

Never heard of that swap, could it have wheel adapters on it?

So i forgot to report on this. The Carpet is Auto Custom Carpets which is probably some of the best aftermarket carpet you can get but I would still order here as you will get a better deal. The mass backing made the install annoyingly difficult...

I need to add cruise control, backup lights and tap shift to my Cruiser It is a L96 with a 6L80 trans. I plan to buy these three modules unless someone can tell me a better way. thanks...

This is what I used. Headers

Pic 11) attaching the filler hoses. connected to main tank. Pic 12) Hoses ready to connect to auxiliary tank. Note the transfer line tee-ed into the main tank vent line. (not sure if that's where it's supposed to go but its easy to access.) Pic...

Pic 16) Pulled tank into position from the floor with a couple ratchet straps until I could lift the tank with a pair of RV jacks. Pick 17) My rickety rigging. I kept the ratchet straps on for safety until the tank bolts were started. Watch for...

Because they will block your view?

2” OME lift of 33” BFGs

I am one of the original contributors to this thread in 2016. After many years of great fun in my 1993 with a 5.3 + 6L80 I finally screwed up my tranny. Coming back from hunting last year, soaked it underwater. Seems EVERY the rebuilder in...

There are pics earlier in this thread, but they might be hard to find. I made a little bracket to move the mount point further away. I also used flat head #8-32 1/2 screws underneath to attach it to the transmission shift plate. Drilled into the...

Installed a hand me down Double din Dual head unit and $20 dual brand reverse camera. Mounted in the license plate light housing, wires ran through the tailgate. Real clean and I’m happy with the result. Also replaced the heater control valve...

Finally installed a small shop heater on the side I work on. I have a mini split on the other side of the shop and it works great just takes a while to heat 1200sqft. This one is 7500 watts and blows directly on my normal work area.

Could you post a pic or 2 of the linkage, I'm gonna order one and I am not the sharpest pencil in the box when it comes to installing these things.

Little help please. I used a stand-alone wiring harness and a wire and use for the alternator cable. Any suggestions of what to do with the old wire? More in particular, the old alternator cable attached to the fusible link. Im sure most ppl...
