The valve float has been discussed not much I can do about it. My Goal 101.4 MPH and we are running 3:73's in the rear. As far as what springs are I have no idea. I bought this motor from @Ghetto Fireman years ago in 2014 we were told it had been...

The OE one is 'fat' too. And it takes time to squish down. Like measured in years. It seems wrong to have to trim something that is new, but sometimes that is what it takes. I remember reading over a decade ago about someone putting a strap...

I mean 14+ threads about being a bad seller, who could have seen this coming. Someone who knows him better than me told me that most of the stuff he advertises isn't built or even in his possession most of the time when he lists it on his...

FYI, there is a member that developed an adapter to retain column shift, and swap in an H42 4spd. It may be a good option for you if you find the truck you want with a 3spd, but get the itch for some mechanical upgrades. There are at least 2 of...

This community is awesome. 96% of folks want the higher quality set with molex connector and harness, even if it adds cost. I'll be working with the manufacturer to do that. Work picked up a lot this week so stay tuned for this weekend; hoping...

Alright guys I’ve got a sticker on its way to me. Thanks Chase! I needed 2 stickers for my 2x 45’s (‘63 & ‘67) so I’m happy to help some others get one as well. As soon as I get a price from the local shop I’ll post the price and we can go...

Making progress. Rebuilt the fuel pump courtesy of kit from @red66toy

Very cool!

Now you can buy original toyota manual in japanese https://item.rakuten.co.jp/toyotagazooracing/h004/

Hey all - need your input on another vote since there are two directions the project can go. I've emailed everyone who filled out my first form. You can vote here. I'll wait a few days before making a decision on project direction, and update...

Got thr last parts in from PowderKeg. Once all of the proper plugs were in place the idle landed in the right spot. It's a good place to leave it for a few days while I hit the road to deliver one and pick up another. Engine bay looks awesome...

Found it!

I also think I have a spare somewhere… I’ll look around. If so I can scan if that would help more get made. :)

The outcome... https://www.ksl.com/article/51339120/lindon-land-cruiser-dealer-admits-to-fraud-is-ordered-to-serve-probation-

Cool!

This is what I ended up with for my CEL. I had a few 2SB536 PNP transistors in the drawer, so I ditched the relay idea. Just ground the base of the B536 via the ECU and the light comes on. A little over 4 mA current on the 2SD1491 in the ECU.

Hwzt all. This will be a build thread, but like most, it's starts with a story.... Around 2022, I got my hands on a Lexus LS400. I loved that car, that absurdly heavy, beautifully comfortable, quietly powerful and deeply impractical, rust...

Happy Independence Day! Enjoy the summer! Next up for me may be some all terrains :-)

Aight, I put my thinking cap on and came up with the obvious fix for the ass high aspect. These springs come with 2 spacers that are only there to fill the gap for a standard Ubolt setup to work. Without them most units would possibly bottom out...

Found these while cleaning out the garage. I already have a set on my 40 (pictured), so I don't need them. Same diamond pattern as OEM (but black color). Looks really good on the vehicle and never looks dirty or worn out. Super grippy. The...

4 Chevy studs 1/2 inch UNF and 2 Toyota 12mm.

My 60 is my typical daily but I drive my 40 a lot. We were running errands the other day and went to Wendy’s to get the kids frostys. While in the drive through a guy was suddenly standing next to me (my top and doors off) and asked if he could...

They both probably think it's some kind of heep. Had a guy at Home Depot tell me he had never seen one with "round corners" before (hard top was on). :rolleyes:

Drove about 1100 miles roundtrip to the Rubithon. Didn't have any problems or break anything, which is amazing since the trail seems to be getting rougher. The red 40 in the background of a couple pics was driven from Portland, Oregon, which is...

Catching the night airshow. 😄
