    What did you break on your 100 this week?

    Could've been real bad, just managed to steer away from barriers by giving it some extra. This is a Febest unit. I looked up the part number: 0124-334RH The units were installed late september 2021, so only about 15 months old. I've also seen UCA's wear out and fail, but never like this.

    What did you break on your 100 this week?

    Definitely posting here too often, but I had another failure I didn't expect. Last night I was driving home from wrenching on another Land Cruiser 100. On my way back I was driving, let's say 125+km/h/75+mph and then my upper balljoint snapped on the highway. Bit of careful steering and...

    Land Cruiser HDJ100 1HD-FTE Chugging/honing/droning/strange sound upon medium acceleration

    Thanks for the suggestions, I was in Scandinavia last week and discovered a swollen hose on the return line from injectors. I found it thanks to a diesel smell when the car was off, replaced that bit of hose. While searching for air related problems I also found that sometimes the "Switch...

    HDJ100 Factory trailer wiring?

    I recently treated some rust in the back and came access these plugs, lot of them were unused: I can take some more pics if you want, mines made in October 2001. I did a quick search on the forum about a trailer brake plug under the dash but couldn't find it. Do you have a picture of the plug...

    Airbox - broken nipple - needs repaired

    Plastics can be hard to glue, look up the plastic type and get the correct glue / epoxy. I wouldn't use glue or epoxy myself in this case but some sort of metal bulkhead fitting / nipple with a nut behind and rubber seal. Something like this:

    HDJ100 - Body off renovation, now with a hot dip galvanised frame *Picture Heavy*

    You're right, it is fine for prototyping but I like welded constructions more. I use the stuff at work for test setups and I used to use the same stuff as you. I call that profile a "B" type and it has two flat edges where the "Nut" slides. Now I mostly use "I" type. It is thicker on the edge...

    What did you break on your 100 this week?

    Seems like I'm posting too regularly here, but this is what happened: My brake disc broke while driving (coming to a stop) whacked the piston out of the caliper, destroyed (bend and broke) the caliper, backplate, brake shoes, hardware and made some pretty bad scars inside the rim. These are...

    There are some signals that the ECU needs, mostly from the linear shift pattern. I think I'll get these from the neutral safety switch. If I need more buttons I'll possibly place some switches. I might also create a "shift box" to manually select gears off road, but we'll see if this is...

    Did some work, small things. Need to get a spacer instead of the stack of rings but I almost finished the shifters: 3D printed some knobs for fun: Low Range Lever: Added some m20x1.5 to AN10 adapters, AN10 to 1/8NPT sensor housing and AN10-AN6 adapters for the ATF cooler lines and put...

    Landcruiser 100 lacking power and using lots of fuel

    Don't have them yet. Might just install Techstream and make them.

    HDJ100 - Body off renovation, now with a hot dip galvanised frame *Picture Heavy*

    Awesome Build! I really like the galvanized zinc coating on the frame, definitely something I would like to do. I like your tire carrier design. One thing I don't like on most tire carriers is the latch design. On most you have to reach down under a tire to open and close the latch. I think it...

    Landcruiser 100 lacking power and using lots of fuel

    I did not notice a difference in fuel economy, but maybe that is mostly because it was way faster now, and I was using that power. The economy can go op tp 8km/l / 18.8 mpg when I drive slowly and mostly highway. But most of my driving is smaller roads, and since the ironman suspension handles...

    Take 3, the Forever 45- IFS and 1uz-vvti

    I used an adapter block made by venom automotive, you can see in in my build thread. It used the OEM seal and bolts to the side of the block. I did have to modify it slightly to work with the AC compressor, there are other ones available that work with the AC compressor out of the box. I'm...

    You are right, still need to decide on DIY'ing a AC system or buying one. For now I'll route the lines to the cab so I can decide later. This weekend I finished the shifter mechanism. Well... Finished... I still need a few bolts & shift knobs, but I'm happy with the levers & links. I wanted to...

    Builds Build #2 - 45 Extended Cab, 80 Frame, iForce 5.7 3UR

    Great Build! Your bedsides and tailgate turned out awesome. I like that you took off the actuator and use the pull cable with the perfect symbol. Does you know what the cable / symbol is called? Gives me ideas for my build.

    @Vossie It's quite far off the firewall, I did that to have a longer rear driveshaft. The "keepout" in the firewall is not big enough to push the 1UZ all the way back, but mine's even further forward. Here are a few pictures, about 75mm or three inches from firewall: About 125mm or 5 inches...
