So a while back I went to take out my Landcruiser and it wouldn't go into gear. After tearing it apart (with the help of a friend who knows more than I) we found that the button on the side that you push in to shift gears was no longer engaging. We've looked around quite a bit and haven't been...
Well, I had a set of these and got rid of them back in the day, as I didn't have kids and didn't foresee having them. Life changes and my new love has 3 kiddos. I need a set of 3rd ro seats for my 80 series (mine is a '93) in good condition. Color/material isn't important, as I just had my other...
I have a '93 FZJ80 and I want to put more aggressive tires on it. I am going to be using it mainly when I go up to the mountains in Tonasket. Lots of snow, rocks, etc. I want to leave the suspension stock for now, and go as big as I can. I'm thinking Yokohama Geolander M/T's. Any input or...
Anyone know of a good shop that works on 80 series Landcruisers? I live in Ballard. It has the following issues:
Windows slow and 2 have fallen off the rails.
Oil leaks
Suspension
Brakes
A few dumb things here and there
I want to do it all myself but I don't have time so I may pick and choose...
This weekend I took my '93 Landcruiser over to my buddy's property for a camping trip. His place is way up a dirt road and you wind through a bunch of other rec properties. Lots of 15mph driving. I started noticing that occasionally when shifting into second it would slip and rev briefly before...
I have a '93 with electric leather seats and I would like to swap them out to manual cloth. I actually found 3/4 of a set already, in great shape, and the color is a similar gray and matches well. I have some questions...
1) Is this a simple swap? What do I need to think about before I break...
I have been watching videos and reading about different PM's for my '93 cruiser, and some of them make references to the center differential, whether it should be locked or unlocked, etc. Mine is AWD and has front and rear locking differentials, but there is no center diff switch. Can someone...
I had some issues in the snow this weekend, so I want to get some tires that are more aggressive for my '93. Right now it has 285's. My thought was to get a spare set of wheels and tires so I can keep what I have for my DD use. Anyone have an idea what a good price is on wheels? There is a set...
Well crud, it looks like my initiation to working on my new-to-me '93 will be on its terms and not mine. l got home from work and went to back it in by the garage to takeout the 3rd row seats for my winter camping trip this weekend. I got out and immediately smelled gas, then heard the...
I recently bought a 1993 Landcruiser. It is basically stock other than an aftermarket stereo and an old analog car phone that was left by the original owner, who was a doctor. I won't be doing much to it this year, as my wife is going through some health issues and must take a year off work, but...
I have been casually looking at and researching Land Cruisers for a couple years and now, and it is finally time to buy. I am finding it difficult to find the right one. I have been searching a lot on Craigslist and Ebay and finding a lot of feast or famine. I guess I will give this a shot.
I...
So I have been saving for a Cruiser for a while now. I had it stuck in my head that I wanted a mid-80's FJ60. The more I look around, the more I really love the old FJ55 Iron Pig. I don't know a lot about them. Can anyone give me some tips as far as what years to avoid, what to look for, etc? I...
This is a really cool site from what I have seen so far! I am starting to research landcruisers and I have a lot of thoughts swirling around my head. I think maybe it is best if I tell you what I want to do and maybe you guys can give me some insight.
I started saving money for a new truck a...
