Thanks for all the input! You've all kind of confirmed what I was thinking. It'll be at least a week until I'm back in town to get pictures of the axles and frame.
I've posted it in the classifieds here: For Sale - 93 factory locked FZJ80 286,XXX miles
It's in 61264 if anyone is nearby and...
Asking $2500 for a factory locked 1993 FZJ80. This truck is a mixed bag. Located in 61264. Link to photos here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/DCBucNhYSWfgaokX7
Good:
Powertrain, diffs, actuators, frame.
Fair:
Interior
Bad:
Body
When I bought it, it leaked from virtually every seal. All that...
Maybe this belongs in the classifieds?...
Here's the short version. I have too many projects and need to sell the 80 but I don't have a good idea of what it's worth. There is good and bad. It's triple locked (all actuators work). Mechanically it's rock solid... not even a CEL, but it needs...
I cut out the plugs and hardwired all of the wires together. It was a huge pain in the ass and took about three hours but the plug is only really necessary for factory installation of wiring harnesses. I used heat shrinkable butt splices and started by splicing them on to the short pigtail...
Afraid I can't be too much help despite my own recent foray with electrical ghosts. It's an interesting problem. If Defog ON = Wiper OFF, it says to me there is a current leak to the hot side of the Wiper relay and turning on the Defog offers a better path for that current to follow. This...
I just killed some Gremlins giving me similar issues (among others). Electrical gremlins; or, how to start a fire by removing body trim. Check the BQ1 and BQ2 harness plugs in the DS quarter panel (picture in the thread). A large number of seemingly unrelated systems run through those plugs...
Stick with me. This might be a bit circuitous, but I'll get there. Since I bought this truck I've been chasing electrical gremlins. There seem to be three of them and every time I fix one thing the gremlin takes up residence someplace else. For instance, my horn, cigarette lighter plug, and...
Had some roof damage in a storm and some holiday distractions so it has been a bit tight on time and money. Here is what i made.I decided to go with two O2 sensors (there is only one in the photo but two are installed on the truck). After thinking about my dilemma I felt that the problem with...
This is a long shot, but... check the condition of your battery and alternator. Mine does something similar if I've drained the battery while I'm working on it. It goes away after the battery is charged up and I've always assumed it was the alternator experiencing heavier load than usual and...
Thanks everyone!
Can you point me to anyone or a thread where this has been done succesfully?
5psi with a rising rate FPR sounds like it might be worth trying.
Any recommendations on where to look for a piggyback ECU? Anything I've found that has enough resolution to run all the injectors...
Greetings all,
This winter I will be replacing the turbos on my car and will have two turbochargers left over that, as luck would have it, map perfectly onto a 4.5L motor at 5000 rpm. So... twin turbo Toyota... right? The problem is that I have searched high and low and can only find threads...
Thank you both.
@ajax1 after you mentioned the PAIR system I found this thread 93 with one O2 Sensor?? which is pretty much the exact same question I had and the exact same solution you proposed. Thanks for your help, that is what I will do.
@dogfishlake Trust me, I wont be shy, and I will...
Greetings all,
I have been lurking here for a while and have found answers to every 80-series issue I've encountered, until now... Short version:
I am building a custom exhaust for my 1993 FZJ80. I am switching to a single cat and would like to replace the two pre-cat O2 sensors with a...
1 1993 FZJ80 w/ factory lockers.
2 No.
3 The dog (even though it's a pig).
4 277k miles on the chassis. PO said the engine was replaced 85k miles ago but who knows how many miles it had before that.
5 CDL switch, heated mirrors, 9500# winch, front tube bumper, removed flares and running...
