I'm out of town - son is driving the LC so I'm missing some details....
Nov 5 son rear ended a pickup truck. It was a 35mph zone, he did step on the brakes prior to impact but can't guess how fast he was going. Said his body hurt for a couple days afterwards. So glad that is the only issue...
Looking for a front bumper (preferably with all mounting brackets/hardware) for a '96 80 series. Not particular - just need a front bumper. Recently rear ended another vehicle and my OEM bumper is mangled. Not a rock crawler, don't need any big, heavy, high dollar bumper. No winch, no plans...
I know I've read about this on here before but can't find a thread on it now. Same symptoms have been mentioned in various threads but I can't seem to find one stating what is causing it or how to fix it.
It's a 96. When trying to use the defroster on the windshield (for fogged up window - we...
Lately when starting in the morning I can hear what I can only liken to a playing card in bicycle spokes if the wheel was turning really really fast. It's not loud - just kind of a high speed chatter. I was thinking maybe a pulley was loose or had a bad bearing (if so, hopefully the idler...
I cannot find a torque wrench that goes low enough to check the rotating torque. I'm rebuilding the pump on my LS400 actually but principle is the same (torque should be 2.2 or less rather than 2.4 or less). After putting it together it feels pretty stiff but by hand I don't know what 2.2...
While moving around from driver side to front to passenger side, back to driver side, etc... trying to find the best way to get access to the water valve today I happened to look down and notice this connector is disconnected. Far as I can tell, everything works fine on the truck (except the...
Found lots of threads asking to ID this hose but didn't find any answering the questions I have.
Could the condition of this hose be contributing to the sub 600 idle rpm I've been getting lately?
Any special instructions to removing and replacing it (i.e make sure you do "x" before removing...
I have a short daily commute but every couple weeks I do a 350ish mile trip. With only my 80 to drive I wanted something to share dd duties as well as be able to haul 8-10' lumber, pallets, etc... I really wanted a 1st gen Tundra but couldn't find one I'd want to buy for my budget. After a...
I've been through some threads on how to replace it (enough to know I won't be doing doing it myself) but didn't find anything on the diagnosis.
1) is this indicative of a front pinion seal leak?
2) the puddle on the garage floor (put my keys next to it for size) is after being parked for 12...
I searched but the threads I found were about the rear defogger not working at all. It appears mine is working - just not very well. Tried to use it for the first time I can recall today in rainy cold weather. It's performance was less than stellar. I had one grid line that appeared to work...
Tried searching as I'm sure it's here somewhere but don't even know what to search for.
Was digging in to the DS quarter panel to find the connector for the door/light switch and found this plug.
Can someone please tell me what it is?
Thanks.
I have finished the structure/exterior of my (mostly woodworking) shop in the backyard. Have a few nailguns and worked with my little 2.5 hp 11 gallon Coleman compressor. I need more air for bigger tools and small sandblasting jobs and want to be able to take it around front to the driveway (for...
I've been blissfully ignorant watching my dash temp gauge sit unwavering in the middle. About a month ago on a 3 hour mostly highway drive the a/c stopped blowing cold air. Turned it off and tried it again 5-10 minutes later and had cold air again. On the 3 hour drive home several days later it...
I've been researching portable compressors to air up 33s and smaller and want something to move from Cruiser to truck to truck, etc.. Concerned that one connecting to the battery of tow vehicle might not reach the trailer tires unless lugging around a lot of hose. Thus turned to battery powered...
2004 V6 Access Cab Tacoma with TRD pkg. 197k miles and no mods (except slightly bigger tires).
I'm out of town (way out of town) and my son reports that the wheels (he thinks DS but not sure front or back or both) are squealing constantly while moving but stops when he applies the brakes.
Due...
Hi all -
My 04 Tacoma w/TRD package is just turning over 195k. I bought it at 118k just over 6 years ago. Far as I can tell from the service records I can find (basically mine plus Carfax plus Toyota Owners site) the shocks, leaf springs, coils have never been replaced (currently has...
