    Builds  Recently acquired locked 94 build

    Got a 94 with seriously blown head gasket not too long ago. Going to swap engines with a locally sourced 1FZ until my 4bt is finalized and ready to go in. Pretty sure it belonged to somebody here at one point, according to the guy I bought it from who ended up not being able to get it into...

    Solenoid pack or ???

    Been piecing together a WARN XD9000 from parts here and there and came across some solid state looking “contactors” on the internet while looking for cheap solenoids to build the controls out of. Are these contactors for totally different kinds of winches or what? Most of the solenoids are about...

    Miss (?) at low rpm

    Hello all. Swapped plugs/cap/rotor last night with minimal vacuum line removal. Will be swapping plug wires this morning (they had to get shipped in) with new, but had some old but still ok wires to put in since the ones that came off could NOT go back on due to corrosion. After firing it up...

    Do these fit better...

    ...on the rigs they came in? Trying to figure out some measurements and how I want some stuff to fit. The pictures I've seen on here of rigs with (I'm assuming) these stock seem to be a much tighter tolerance. Or is this about normal? Console is from a 94 I think, and my rig is 92. Thanks!

    Has anybody squeezed these things together yet?

    Finally got around to hooking up my later model (powered) leather seats only to find out the driver seat didn't survive the previous owner. Thinking about putting together some of the spare parts pile into manual leather seats. Or is this a solved problem and I can't find a link to it?

    Had wandery rig, upgraded tires

    Short story: made a huge difference. Long story: had stock wheels/tiny tires when purchased rig (well three stock size tires and one that was smaller), quickly upgraded to some 16s and 265/80s or something like that and then started collecting parts. Got a complete lift kit, some FJ Cruiser 17...

    Best mod yet

    Cleaning stuff up and found this beauty a friend of mine made (custom cast from silicon bronze) years ago for a 1960 4x4 F100 I've regretted selling since the day I sold it. Re-drilled/tapped for this application and very happy about it!! If anybody gets a hair to put something on their t-case...

    Drove through a SMALL puddle, then died

    First time it's really rained since I got this thing. Hopped in and rallyed through a tiny puddle on the side of the road. I got to the END OF THE BLOCK and rig dies at the stop sign. Crankcrankcrank and nothing, luckily a lonely intersection. Get out look under hood for anything obvious and...

    Fixing charging issues (new dual battery setup)

    Recently setup a dual battery system and had some trouble getting the solenoid to work correctly. Shorted a couple things since I was trying to get things done too quickly (as usual). This led to replacing a couple parts (the solenoid that connects batteries and the alternator) and trying again...

    Rebuilding XD9000, looking for electrical parts

    Recently acquired a well used winch and decided to give it a full refresh before installing it. Found WARN "rebuild" manual online but it's more like a "replace" manual. I've sourced the wear parts, but am having trouble with the brushes and studs that broke off during disassembly. Anybody...

    Can I block a sub-forum?

    id like to hide the eBay rss sub, as I have no intention of buying wheels or tires via eBay and the first two PAGES of the classifieds are from that sub. Is this possible on mobile? Thanks!

    General question about fuse box wiring diagram

    Just wondering what the "1, 2, 3, 4" mean in this diagram. I searched R/B2 on here and didn't come up with anything and read a few pages before and a few pages after in the black magic cookbook I took the screenshot from and can't find anything. Reasoning for this is I'm looking for a good...

    Warn hub install question

    Howdy all. Recently purchased a set of hubs from the classifieds and the new gaskets for these hubs showed up yesterday so I decided to pop them on last night in the driveway. Pretty darn easy, the worst part being how they look. From my reading, having a 92 means I have the shorter birfs. I...
