My buddy is looking at this imported 1991 Toyota Hiace. He knows I have several Toyota’s and Toyota friends and asked me if I could get some opinions on the vehicle in general. Anybody that has ever driven one or worked on one.

I finally got to go wheeling this weekend and everything was awesome except for my brakes. They work fine on the highway. But on steep downhills on the trails they try to stop the vehicle but they still let it roll slowly downhill. They are new brakes all the way around, rotors and pads and...
I had my heart set on the scs f5 wheel that everybody is running. But they are currently sold out and not expected to be restocked until late July. I like that look but I don’t really care. I just want a 17” wheel that my LX’s hubs will stick thru without any modification. I also don’t care if...
Two parter really, I need to order the correct extended brake lines from Slee for all for corners of my 96’ LX450. Could somebody that has done this before tell me which item number(s) that would be?
And I’ll be rebuilding the birfs at the same time, does their birf rebuild come with wheel...
I live in Oklahoma, have tons of trail options here. I wouldn’t be doing any extreme wheeling. And won’t be overly heavy either. I’ll be traveling and wheeling this rig.
Do you guys think it would be worth it to spend twice the money and get the suspension I want? Or just get what would...
Pulled a dead injector last night #6
Put new o-rings on all of the injectors and new non-OEM FPD. Reassembled everything tightened down all of the vacuum clamps and put all vacuum hoses where they belong. Now when I start it up it will not stay running. If I hold the pedal down it will run fine...
Mine snapped off just like everyone else’s when I changed out the thermostat. Right now I have the connector folded away and not connected. I can’t tell if it’s affecting anything. And I can’t find any new ones for under a Benjamin.
What are the consequences of running without ?
Any secret...
FZJ is at the machine shop so I’m out here trying to fxxx up my other cruiser.
Where is the magic screw? I want to see if it’s backed out.
On one of these?
I have a 96’ LX with 163k that is new to me as of a week ago. No maintenance records. Code P0301 is showing. I cleared it when I got it and have driven about 50 miles and it is now back.
My concern is other people have a cylinder go lean and it isn’t ignition related but rather head gasket...
My 91 FJ80 was acting up. I followed @jonhelds poopy parts to replace list and had no luck. It took 40 seconds to reach 60mph. So I’ve amended the 3fe tune up list.
On Craigslist I found just the parts I needed. I had a sneaking suspicion that it was the frame, engine, and wiring harness. Which...
Is there a second filter or screen in the fuel system ? I replaced the frame mounted fuel filter and thought I remember @jonheld saying there was a second catch in the system. Just wanna get it WHILE I’M ALREADY IN THERE!
Thanks cats!
I’ve spent plenty of time searching threads and reading faqs. But I’m struggling to find the exact model and fitment for my application. I have a 91’ LC that I want to add a rear locker to. I don’t want an Aussie locker or selectable locker. I just want a Truetrac or comparable torsen style...
