Gross.

Maybe, but likely not cost-effective. It's the aluminum hard lines, they're pretty special, and only need to be replaced if they're damaged.

WTB: 80 series 93-97 core support. Not sure if '91-'92 is the same, but it might be. Mine is a '95. I'll search parts yards, but would prefer to give my money to someone in the club if possible. Also looking for the A/C lines to and from the A/C...

Changing out the t-case gears is less invasive than swapping axle gears, but axles usually need love (maintenance) where the t-case rarely does, so you can knock out two jobs at once if you go with axle gears. There are advantages and...

Interesting that for 6 of the 10 production years, significantly more Lexi were sold than LC's. If that trend continued with the 200 series it gives some insight on Toyota's decision to drop the LC badge recently.

What a cock!

The sending unit in the tank sometimes comes apart due to a rivet failing. I fixed mine by replacing the rivet with a bolt or something- been too long for me to remember the details. You'll have to pull it to see what the issue is, though. Just...

Sounds like you're headed in the right direction with the ECU, which does have the relays incorporated in it. I'd check for signal there, or borrow a good friend's working ECU to test the theory.

At $100, apparently it's gear oil squeezed from a unicorn horn. Don't judge.

The TC plugs are steel, as are the diff plugs. I wouldn't anticipate any problems. I'm sure Toyota had their reasons, but I doubt it's critical. Replace them next time you drain and fill, if it bothers you. You'll notice a leak months before it...

Did they seal? This isn't rocket science, you're talking about a plug gasket. If it doesn't leak, you could use dolphin gonads.

FWIW, registrations expire mid-month for about 50% of the vehicles, but certainly mid-week and early in the day are typically the best times to go. Also, they don't care about ScanGauges being in the vehicle, as long as the OBD port isn't in...
