Thank you for the suggestion. I returned the hose, and was given a recommendation to a local hydraulic hose shop near my house. I've contacted them to have a new one made.

It is a RHD 3F-E powered FJ80 truck. My apologies.

I've tried searching, but couldn't find a definitive answer (probably because this is a question that shouldn't even be asked). I have a leak in my power steering pressure hose (p/n 44410-60260 [first photo]). I ordered a new hose, but I was given the pressure hose for later models and diesel...

The first picture is what is found on the left and right second row seats. The second picture is the male end for the center lap belt.

Are the second row belts, lap belts? I’ve got a ‘90 FJ80, and I want to upgrade to shoulder belts in the second row.

You can order them from Amayama. Get your wallet ready.

Been a busy past couple of days. I changed my oil, oil filter, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, engine coolant, differential fluid, spark plugs, and alternator. This morning I pressure washed the engine bay and undercarriage. When my concrete dries, I’ll crawl under and take some...

Took old buttercup to see her yellow flowered friends.

Correct. What I meant is that I'm hoping to see this rig at a TexAgs Land Cruiser meet up in the future.

Just found out this build is going to be local to my area. Can't wait to see this thing in person.

Well, my first issue was that I have rear AC, and the AC system is hidden behind the panel that also holds the small subwoofer. I ended up getting a 10” shallow mount sub, did some cutting on the other opposite side, and installed it there. Made my own mounting bracket with an old, steel baking...

I’ve only had it for a couple of months, but when I saw it leaning to the left, I knew I had a problem. Rides way better. Previously, it was like when the school bus hit a hard bump and threw all the kids into the ceiling. That doesn’t happen now.

Installed an OME 2.5” lift kit. Original shocks and springs were done. Looks like I added 6” from where it was sitting. It took every bit of a 30-ton press to get the old casters out of the control arm. I maxed it out on 2 occasions. Released pressure, beat the control arm a bit with a hammer...

I’m gonna be on the lookout when this thing makes it back to Tessus.

I’m not the owner of the 80 this thread is dedicated to. $510k was actual, but I don’t want to derail the thread with details. I have a spreadsheet that shows what really drove up the costs if you want to discuss over PM.
