I bought some aftermarket bumper light set for my 1992 Hilux (the same bumper as the 2nd gen 4Runner) and I have some trouble finding a bulb socket that would fit. The original lamp I have on my car does not have a removable bulb socket, so I can't use that rusty old part. The hole has 2.2 cm...

The diagram is for my Hilux, as you can see bellow. I have the 22RE, not the 22R. No sure if they are similar, but there is another check valve with a different part number on a vacuum line near the cylinder head.

I can't find a fuel check valve (PN: 90917-10054) for my 1992 Toyota Hilux - 22RE, it seems like no supplier has it. Does anybody know if I can replace it with another part? On my truck it is located near the fuel tank, on one of the 3 pipes connected to the fuel tank. I think it has...

I started the engine a few hours ago with the wires on the right disconnected and I found out that the thick one is the positive terminal for the alternator. I still don't know what the other wire is for, but for now I've left it connected to ground.

Hello! I'm rebuilding my 1992 Toyota Hilux / Pickup 22RE and I stumbled upon this: Does anyone know what this black part in the middle of the picture is? It's on the left side of the engine bay, next to the air filter and it has a + sign on it. I looked for it in the parts catalogue, but I...

No added weight, completely stock, no hard off-roading in mind.

Should I replace the original torsion bars on my 1992 IFS Hilux with OME or Ironman torsion bars? Do they improve the ride quality? The car has more than 200.000 km / 125.000 miles and I recently bought new Kayaba shocks, new control arms and various other parts. Should I replace the torsion...

I'm not worried about the size, 16x6J ET 0 is perfect for J70. It's just that other people had to machine some edges for the wheel hub to fit on Level 8 MK6 wheels. Also, I think these wheels need smaller lug nuts

I agree, but I don't know any OEM alloys for the J70 and the steel wheels are a lot heavier, about 30 lbs vs 19 lbs. I don't plan doing much off-roading, I'll use a Hilux for that, so I am searching only for alloys for my RJ73

Has anyone tried 16x6J ET 0 alloys like Sendel T03 , Sendel S20 , Level 8 Hauler or Vision Empire 390 ? For skinnier tires, not wider than 10.5, of course.

Has anyone tried the LEVEL 8 Hauler 16x6 wheels on a J70? Would they fit the front wheel hubs or do they require some machining? I've seen that the Level 8 MK6 do need machining to fit Land Cruisers. The lug nuts' holes also look quite small on these. Part number: 1660HLR006140M08

Yep, it's the coil sprung 73, the light duty 73. The factory wheels were 6Jx16 ET0 or 7Jx15 ET-20, if I'm not mistaken. From my estimation, it seems I can use these types of 16' rims: 6J ET 0, 6.5J ET -6, 7J ET -13, 7.5J ET -19 or 8J ET -25. This is why I was asking if somebody replaced the...

That's right, it's not going to rub, but I don't want to use these rims. I was trying to find some alloy rims, but I can't find any that fit.

There may be, but only very few alloy wheels will fit (I haven't found any until now). Also, almost everything that fits other Land Cruisers won't fit this.

The steering knuckle arm on my RJ73 is very close to the rim and that makes rim choices really limited. As you can see in the picture below, there's only a half inch gap between the arm and the edge of the rim. And that is because I've put some old 16' rims from my BJ42 and they are quite narrow...
