    Moving to the Rogue Valley and needing friends / Cruiser shop recommendations

    Welcome to town, Bunny and clan. I can’t get out nearly as often as I’d like on account of kids/family but I’d join you for a run sometime in the Siskiyous. I putter around occasionally solo or with a toddler south and west of Mt A out to Applegate. I’m in a 200 series and my little guy...

    LRA Aux leak?

    PSA: I chatted with Aiden at LRA and it is likely that either a filter (Toyota paper filter in fuel line, or LRA filter before charcoal) are clogged and this causing pressure buildup and siphoning; or that the one-way valve in the fuel pump is less than sufficient for the job (the reason LRA...

    LRA Aux leak?

    No fuel smell fortunately, so my sense is I'm not losing fuel outside the tanks. I think it would be noticeable as I tend to park in the same places most days and I never smell fuel. The "loss" can happen over the course of a week or two and it ranges from a gallon or 2 up to 5 or 6. I've not...

    LRA Aux leak?

    Thanks George. Curious what conditions might cause siphoning in your estimation? LRA’s site and manuals mention the potential for a gravity leak if the transfer pump is not at the appropriate height or angled correctly. I went back to install shop, had them put it on the lift, we dropped the...

    LRA Aux leak?

    Anyone else dealt with a (presumed) gravity leak in their LRA Aux Tank? No fuel spillage that I’ve noticed at all, but I can lose as much as 5-6 gallons of fuel between fill ups without activating the pump to move the fuel from reserve to main tank. My tank is two years old and was purchased...

    2015 Land Cruiser aux port

    1 in 30 if you’re in Marfa, MAYBE. I’d actually like someone to conduct this experiment. My guess would be 1 in 1000. We’d have to run it in multiple locations, urban and rural and in between, to get a solid figure in the end. 1 in a 1000 might even be a reach.

    A 200 and an Opus... with some kids

    This has been a very helpful thread. I’ve been considering an OP4 but just can’t pull the trigger, have been wanting more info and real world reviews and the internet is just littered with promotional material and influencers that, even if not sponsored, are always shopping for deals. We’ve...

    Did you need to alter the suspension or do anything to make the 34s on the Opus work?
