    1996 Land Cruiser EV Conversion - EVJ80 Project

    I'm guessing this setup would massively benefit from a part-time kit.

    1996 Land Cruiser EV Conversion - EVJ80 Project

    How much range (and capacity) would 600-800lbs of battery add?

    35" Tires. Ring and Pinion or 10% T-Case Gears?

    I'm on 33's and had the 10% underdrive done by @cruiseroutfit a few months ago and it's been excellent. Didn't raise the RPM's so much that freeway driving is miserable, but is much easier to maintain freeway speeds.

    A/C blows cold...most of the time

    See my post just above yours. Mine pretty much only worked while driving until I replaced the oil in my fan clutch. It actually turned out that my fan clutch was almost empty, too.

    A/C blows cold...most of the time

    This is exactly what was occurring with my 94, and it was resolved by putting a high weight oil in my fan clutch. Ever since that change it's ice cold even when stopped and 100+ outside.

    Rear Defrost Issues

    Common issue on these is that the connections (heating elements) will burn out over use. Mine does the same.

    80-Series Pay It Forward Christmas Edition

    I'd love to get rid of a few things. All parts are used, but functioning. I'm lucky enough to be in a financial situation that allows me to replace/upgrade parts when troubleshooting. Bad parts are thrown out or rebuilt. 1994 PAIR System 1994 Charcoal Canister (used, replaced when...

    Worsening MPG - 1994 FZJ

    If I factor in the tires, it comes closer 13. The 16-17 was after the larger tires. I'll try running higher octane, it might make a difference at this altitude.

    Worsening MPG - 1994 FZJ

    That's one of the frustrating things... If I hadn't achieved it at the beginning, I wouldn't be upset about the mileage now. But instead, I had something special and it was taken from me! I usually run 85 octane and prefer costco or chevron gas.

    Worsening MPG - 1994 FZJ

    Yes and No... I got 16-17 MPG on the freeway after the lift and tires, but before the rack and tent. However, I regularly remove the rack and tent when they're not being used, and the mileage stays in the 12 range. 285/75/16R

    Worsening MPG - 1994 FZJ

    When I first got my cruiser a few years ago, it got incredible fuel economy, 16-17MPG freeway. During the past 2 years, it's steadily decreased, now hovering around 11.5 around town and 12 on the freeway. During this time I have done the following to try to address: EGT Disable (not removed)...

    Outside of my Tinder days, this is generally considered a bad time.

    Excessive fuel tank pressure

    After replacing the fan shroud, I've had absolutely no venting issues. Thanks for the people who helped out with suggestions!
