    LJ78 100mm lift on 35s

    Great Table. Can you confirm where you were measuring from on those Dobinson GS59-633's? I rang Dobinsons on Monday and they said they were only a 525 extension(although he was a little confused about what I was after), and so instead of buying them on Monday I've spent the week looking for...

    LJ78 vac lines and Brake booster

    There is a small resevoir, which as you say has the vac sensor in it. I can probably rig up the vac guage relatively easily and that is definately on my things to do, although to road test it will be a daytime/weekend job. It does sound like its normal to be able to out pump the pump so i may...

    LJ78 vac lines and Brake booster

    I've been tinkering away on my LJ78 for some time, egr throttle plate and associated vsv's went away some time last year and i've been trying (with little success) in the last month or so to make the boost bleed valve work properly. And then a few weeks ago i replaced the alternator because the...

    Help decode my vin no.

    If you run through the Menus here: toyota | vehicle list|JP-CarParts.com or enter the frame no. here ToyoDIY.com you should be able to work through the abbreviations. They vary slightly from model to model.

    2L-T EGT sensor location question

    Shocking picture, and possibly controversial, but i went pre-turbo but in the turbo housing itself, the theory was that it i went where Jarrat went that you may not get good airflow being just above where the two flows join. Not sure if it makes a huge difference. My EGT's seem to sit around...

    Lj78 rear axle question...

    I did a pile of internet research on lj78 diffs when i wore out my crown wheel and pinion - mostly is seemed to contradict itself. This website: Erik's Toyota Differential info suggests that you might be in luck. Annoyingly a pile of the links no longer work. Although i suspect running down to...

    About to plunge into JDM Cruiser nerd land... am I crazy?

    If you don't decide to replace the electrics in the short term (which is a reasonable choice if they work), invest in the torx tool to pull the hub cover off and carry it with you. Manually locking them in is a little fiddly, but its pretty cheap way of assuring you can still lock them if you...

    LJ78 pre-turbo EGT's

    Update: Went for a longer drive. 450 to 550 on the highway seems stable over longer time periods. Slowly crept up to 600 heading up Cunninghams Gap. Seemed pretty stable there, but the Engine coolant temp jumped up to 3/4 so i threw on the heater and dropped back to 2nd which drops the temps...

    LJ78 pre-turbo EGT's

    I've got a 2LT-E LJ78 Pre-turbo egt, all temps in celcius. Very little mods so far, the egr "fell off" when i was installing the egt and most of my services are up to date. But i am having some intermittent issues with the AT lockup. Cruising: 400 ish, will get up to 500 up hills. Highway mild...

    A343f Shifting Issues

    You may be able to tell whether its the ECU or the Solenoid by putting in a couple of diagnostic LED's or probing the ecu lines. I just did this with lockup solenoid on my LJ8 a few weeks back and it seemed to work well. I was seeing a real flickery signal on the LED over 90km/hr, which...

    What did you do on your 70 series today?

    Drained, exchanged and bled the power steering fluid on the LJ78... or as I like to call it: bathed in inexperience, sweat and AT fluid. But i did not break anything, the old stuff was a pretty foul color and it didn't take me 6 weeks so we'll call that a win!

    ID this CV (or my LJ78 birfield doesn't match the manual)

    After a pile more digging stumbled across this: Birfield assembly in 80 series tech. So i think the following applies to mine: Star: The flat face has a ~4mm chamfer(a guess at size) for assisting in shaft install. This end has the wider grooves for ball install. The other end with the...

    ID this CV (or my LJ78 birfield doesn't match the manual)

    So i'm midway through an auto to manual locking hubs conversion on my 1991 JDM LJ78, but my normal reference sources, ie the FSM for the KZJ70/HZJ/PZJ and the Max Ellery for the earlier LJ70 & BJ models all talk about: - "wide/narrow" sides of the cage or - "wide champher" ends of the cage...
