    1HD-FT after market Turbo set up

    Installed the same turbo and can confirm all your observations about not really being bolt-on etc. I was too lazy to take the turbo off to change the spring, so I ended up installing the electronic boost controller, which works flawlessly. It's set to 1.3 bar (like 19 psi) and that seems a good...

    H55F 40 series top plate: finally copied or...?

    TL;DR they made H55F top plate for 40 in Pakistan! As many of 40 series owners, I'm in a long and unfruitful search of right H55F top plate to replace my 60-series one. Recently I found Toyota Land Cruiser BJ40 BJ42 H55F 5Speed Transmission Top Cover (Reproduction) | eBay -...

    Justdifferentials.com impressions

    I can confirm all that mess. Ordered semi-floating axle shafts for a 40 cause nobody else had them, and added front axle shafts and CVs just to ship it in one parcel. One rear shaft and both front arrived, but no birfs and no second rear shaft:rofl: And I forgot to tell, no answers from...

    Wanted  79-84 FJ40 front left (driver) seat with tracks

    Looking for original front left (driver side for LHD, passenger side for RHD) seat with seat tracks in any working condition. Upholstery will be redone so it's condition doesn't matter. International USPS shipping preferred, but can forward from NJ. Thanks, Dmitry

    LX450 1997

    I second the upper posters, drive shafts are known to produce noise after such lift. Although it's usually 4" lift that causes noise and vibrations, it's weird that same setup on different cars may make noise or not, so it's only trial&error. If no joint is faulty, the right way to fix it is...

    Bastardized 91 transfer case shift boot

    Aftermarket Steering Wheels for Airbag 80s?

    It won't work bolt-on due to different control resistance, needs some fitting: either swap old switch, or change resistors in a new one. It can be. One should mind that there are two types of airbags on 100/120/470 etc. One-stage and two-stage, plugs differ, and only the first one is probably...

    I can not decode vin

    Here's your frame number decoded: ToyoDIY.com Some cruisers doesn't have any VIN, like JDM or some arab versions. This particularly is marked GCC, so yes, arab market.

    I impulse bought my first LC 80 ...and I'm already regretting it

    You could also use Trail Gear seals (Trail Safe FJ80 Knuckle Ball Wiper Seals) Their symptoms are quite distinct: brake booster failure means hard pedal and the master cylinder problems are more like loose pedal, caused by master cylinder bypass.

    Interesting observation....

    Yeah, these differ on 90-92 models and 92-97 ones. There's no difference between European or Japanese or American specs, but only between "older" and "newer" models. 85261-90K01 are for 90-92 85292-60020 for 92+ Hope that'll help someone.

    Wanted Needed FJ80 shifter with PRND32L pattern

    In fact I'm also outside of the U.S., we have somehow different market here in Russia. Many LHD cars, most of them diesel, so no problems with firewalls and other RHD->LHD conversion parts. Same with shifters - most people prefer manual, and others deal with electric A442F. The minority of...
