    Parting Out Los Angeles area - Beautiful Bronze & a Ruby Red 1991s being parted out

    Would you perhaps still have the fender flare on the RH rear door on the bronze one?

    Done with Gobi, horrible service

    No, no, and it's been so long not one that is still good. Closed it. It's not the wait, it's the lack of communication- they talk a wonderful game on their website that they don't live. Heck, the products get good reviews, I've seen some up close and heard good things- if I could get anyone...

    78crzr exactly what I will do if they try to charge me. It's not the wait that is frustrating as much as the complete lack of communication.

    Done with Gobi, horrible service

    Ordered a rack second week of January, ok 8-12 weeks. At 16 weeks it took me multiple tries to get a response to an email for an update. Now at 26 weeks they won't reply to my cancellation email- this isn't a company, it's a joke.

    3FE Owners Check-In

    Hi all, At 205,000 miles my 3FE suddenly started overheating. It'll run fine for 20-30 minutes at normal operating temp, then spike up and when I pull over coolant is overflowing. I replaced the radiator, cap, hoses and fan clutch 5000 miles ago. Note- apparently a certain idiot (me) didn't...

    Gobi customer no-service

    Ordered a rack Jan 12, quite clearly on the website and in the confirmation they warned about lead times (either they have really good products or are really poorly run or both, but whatever) so I knew I was looking at months. And I appreciate they don’t charge your card until ready to ship-...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    In fairness, snow in places that rarely get it usually isn't powder you can push with a broom- it's wet and heavy. And has a 1/2" of ice underneath because the storm started as freezing rain. Kind of like those October storms in Denver and Minneapolis everyone likes to forget.

    3FE Owners Check-In

    So my production date is 7/92, I’m not certain that is last month of production of the FJ80 but I’m pretty sure the first FZJ80s were produced 7/92. Anyone else have a 3FE from 7/92 (or later)? Wondering how close to the end of the run mine is.

    For Sale  1999 LX470 Tallahassee, FL

    Not mine, no affiliation, but I went and looked it over pretty thoroughly this morning. It's clean- very clean underbody, PHH and radiator replaced at 150K, bearings repacked and brakes done recently, AHC works, couldn't find anything that didn't work except he said trailer wiring needs to be...

    3FE Owners Check-In

    Question about my A/C compressor- I've looked through a bunch of threads and am more confused. Sunday got a high pitched squeal suddenly from it followed by a burning smell and smoke. Turn off A/C it ends. Replace clutch? Bearing rebuild? Or bite the bullet and replace whole thing...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Replaced radiator, water pump, thermostat, hoses, belts, fan clutch, flushed system... first time working on '92 3FE (new to me truck), have scars to prove it. Biggest mistake- got everything buttoned back up, walk around truck to start it, trip over fan shroud. DOH! Wife laughing as she...
