My door locks aren't working and I am at a loss as to why. I read several threads here and went ahead and bought some new parts. I managed to get them installed, but things still don't work.
1997 Land Cruiser. New master door lock and window switch and new door lock relay control box on the...
Has anyone had issues with Landcruiser heaven? I ordered some leather seat coverings and haven’t had any luck in receiving them. Calls not being returned. Crickets chirping.
I hate to call the credit card company but I don’t want to be out money either. Especially in these unprecedented times.
After resolving issues with my lockers a month or two ago I thought things were grrreat! My younger sister just got her DL so I recommended she get a landcruiser. We found one in Kentucky and picked it up this weekend. We made it home to Maine without issues other than leaking a bit of oil...
Starting yesterday morning my windshield wipers are stuck in an on position. No movement of the control stick or the button on the end have any effect. An hour later it was gone and they operated fine. This morning, they are stuck in the on position. I couldn't find much using the search...
I haven't driven the cruiser for a while and now I am having some issues. Shame on me for not enjoying it more. I had driven it to Florida 2 years ago and parked it for a short time. I then drove it to VA and used it briefly to commute to DC. That was short lived so I drove it home to Maine and...
I’m on I-275 in Bradenton, battery voltage light turned red and now I’ve got no power to anything. I’m guessing battery but think it may be the alternator too. Any local mechanic suggestions? Parked cruiser at gas station, Uber to hotel.
I picked up a set of Lexus LX450 wheels. That way I can put on my 35's and go back to 33's when I need to go on a trip.
The wheels look awful, chrome peeling, dings, etc.
I found that with a plastic scraper I can remove the chrome and underneath is beautiful aluminum. Who'da'thunk.
Is...
Like others I have come to realize that I need another land cruiser. I have been going through craigslist and MUD trying to find the right one. I've went to look at four of them so far but haven't driven one home.
Is it just me, or is every 80 on craigslist ragged out? Torn seats, destroyed...
I'm headed south, tired of Maine and cold weather.
I'm leaving on Saturday, towing a small uhaul trailer with all my belongings.
Any suggestions or things I should be aware of towing the trailer other than it's going to be slow on the hills?
I'm back in Maine after a great summer and fall. Need to give some TLC to the cruiser. First up is to strip. I'm thinking of taking out the interior and using some dynamat. I took out the back section but can't seem to get the grey shag fur glue crap off. Any great suggestions?
I'm leaving Maine on June 18th to head out west and end up in Prince George, BC. Stopping in Utah even though it's out of the way so that I can experience Moab for a few days. My cruiser has 2.5" lift and I'm running 33's currently. Purchase some sliders from Rocky Road and put them on this...
My leather seats aren't looking great these days. I attribute a lot of that to age, and temperatures here in Maine. I'm not sure what to do though. I've got options though, 1. Buy some leatherique and see if that fixes them up a bit, and replace later. 2. Leather seat covers, MetricTLC...
Hey guys, I think I have blown the head gasket on my 80. This morning I went out to go to work put my gear in the back and went to start it. It made an odd sound and then it started but ran really rough. Then a plume of smoke came out about 2 seconds later. I turned it off and got out, it...
This past weekend I was doing some maintenance on my 80. Finally got around to routing some wires out for the light bar on my ARB. I ran the wires through the grommet in the drivers side firewall.
What I noticed was bad. Removed the carpet and matting on the interior and found a LOT of rust...
I've noticed lately that in my driving that I neglect to buy gas until I need it and as a result have come very close to running out. I've searched and found the extended tank but it looks like more modifications and time than I am willing to endure. Trying to decide if I get an extended tank...
So, I've noticed a new issue / feature with my door locks. When I start the LC, all of the doors lock, but, when I turn off the LC, it only unlocks the drivers door. When I set the alarm, it locks all 4, when I disarm the alarm, it only unlocks the drivers door. Am I going crazy, or how is it...
There are at least twenty solutions for cup holders, and I've only found one that goes where it belongs, in the center console in the odd shaped spot. The one I picked up from @musthave is perfect, stainless steel, and it just works. Ordered one last week for my bo', got it today and will make...
