    Repurposing the rear heater with a propane heater?

    Feel free to laugh me off Mud, but as I was sitting as a stop the other day I put my hand back where the rear heater was and it was a nice warm, quiet heat. I often camp in my rig and was thinking how nice it would be to have a source or internal heat that doesn't involve a diesel heater. I...

    Heated seat wiring question?

    Not a question specific to the 80 series but I want to add heated seats. I picked up a seat heater switch out of an 08 Camry that would blend in nicely and look factory but I am unsure how I would go about wiring it. My plan was to just get a heated seat kit and ditch the switches in favor of...

    are there replaceable bulbs for the climate control backlights? The top display on my goes in and out. Never off all the way but very dim. Sometimes it’s full brightness but not usually.

    Help diagnosing Master Window circuit? 1999 LX

    Pretty sure there is an issue with the wiring. All other door window switches work. Power lock switch from passenger door works. Replaced the switch, no change. NOTHING on the master switch works. Door lock, nor none of the doors. SOMETIMES the switch will work, but 19/20 it won't do anything...

    Bulk oil refills?

    Are there any suppliers out there that sell bulk oil? I would love to be able to just keep a couple 5qt jugs of oil around and when I use them go get them refilled. Between my five cars I change a lot of oil and I don't like tossing those jugs in the garbage. Might not exist, but just thought I...

    Custom bikini top from KTT

    I've have a SoftTopper on my 4Runner since 2010 and while I really like it, I prefer to roll with no rear top in the summer unless it's a really hot day and I have the kids in the back. In those cases I would grab the Soft Topper out of the garage and install it. It works, but it's heavy and...

    Master power window switch acting up?

    Read through a few other posts regarding the master window switch... My master switch on my 99 LX has stopped working reliably. When I first bought it (used 3 years ago) the driver switch has never worked when the driver door was open. As soon as I closed the door it worked. I thought it was...

    AC Condenser leak?

    Been trying to troubleshoot an AC issue for a few years now. I replaced a leaking high-pressure line (OEM) back in Sept. 2020 and about 10 months later it was so low on refrigerant that the compressor wouldn't kick on. Had it vacuum tested and recharged and it worked for about 10 months again...

    Fused kill-switch???

    I came across this clip looking for ways to do a kill switch in my 1st Gen 4Runner. This looks pretty clever and I really like the idea of blowing fuses, but he mentions putting a third hidden fuse somewhere but I can't figure out what he is talking about. How do I just add a fuse to the system...

    "Noise" from tires when turning?

    When I am going about 40mph+ in a straight line everything is good and quiet. When I turn the wheel left or right just a little on a corner (higher speed highways) I hear a "noise" that sounds like it's coming from the tires. As soon as I straighten out it goes away. I have Falken Wildpeak ATs...

    Fog light bracket for 99 LX

    Really wanted some additional lighting on my LX but didn't want a heavy ass bumper and I didn't want to drill/cut out parts of my bumper either. I had a neighbor make me some simple steel brackets that mount to the frame and stick out a bit. This part of the frame has a hole on the bottom as...

    Replacement decals for interior switches?

    Does anyone know of a source for decals/stickers for interior switches? I see tons on etsy and ebay but they are all just stickers and don't appear to be translucent on the letters. I can make a PNG or SVG decal file if needed, but I thought I saw somewhere on here where someone was doing...

    Coil pack preventative replacement?

    Dealer replaced coil packs on cylinders 3 and 8 (90k ago). The rest are original to the car with 262k. I know a lot of you carry a few spares just in case, but I was wondering if it makes sense to replace at least #7 and #5 preventatively since those look to be the most challenging to replace in...

    Unknown connectors under center console?

    Left my sunroof open overnight like an idiot and it rained. So I pulled the front seats and center console to dry everything out and I’m wondering what these connectors are supposed to go to? Maybe the DVD if I had that option? The only connection on my console was a 12v outlet (not circled).

    What is this tool???

    Going to help a friend add some tow hooks to his 05 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the manual says this is one of the required tools. Looking into it a bit online it seems like I just need some sockets, but I do wonder what this tool might be. Thoughts?

    For Sale  Gig Harbor, WA, 2001 Lexus LX470

    This is not mine, but it's close to me and seems like a decent deal. Original owner (not a flipper) and kept in Western Washington it's whole life. I haven't seen it in person but I would expect pretty much zero rust. If someone is interested in it I could go take a look at it.

    Stupid question about oil pressure sender - 88 4Runner 3.0

    The oil pressure gauge on my SR5 is very erratic. It usually sits at zero...sometimes it will bump up to "normal" and then slowly creep back down to zero and just stay there. It's done that for a while and no ill effects that I can tell. I am thinking about replacing the sender with an OEM...

    Pedal vibrations related to transmission gear/speed? 99 LX

    Did a bunch of searching, but couldn't really find anything. Recently noticed a vibration in the gas pedal when I was doing between 38-41mph on speedo. Today I noticed that I was accelerating at about 40 there was no vibration until the truck shifted into the next gear. Tested this a few times...
