    Reunited With My 80

    Rims and Tow Hitch For Local Sale

    First dibs for SC80s: 1. Eagle Rims x4. These were on my 80 when I got it. I have no idea what that putty looking thing on one of the rim is - maybe for balancing? $85 for all four and includes the lug nuts minus 4 (which were wheel locks). No center caps. Edit - When I purchased my 80 it...

    Birfs clicking

    I'm getting some clicking on the birfs and would like to put some grease in. What do you guys recommend and what did you use to get it in the fill hole. I won't be in front of the computer all day so the searching will be difficult with an iPhone. Thanks.

    Size ? - 2nd Gen 4R steel rims

    Advice on 1990 22re 4runner

    I'm coming from a Land Cruiser background. Most and if not all of my noob mechanical skills come IH8MUD - which is a plethora of info and members that are tempered to my liking. :sombrero: So my 4runner knowledge = 0. So bear with the ignorance. There is an early 2nd generation 4runner in the...

    OEM Tow Hitch Question

    Looking for suggestions on where to find bolts for the OEM hitch receiver. Prefer somewhere I can walk in locally but online is ok too. What kind of bolts/washers/relevent info should I take into account when installing this on the rear? Thanks in advance.

    Heart Attack

    Heart Attack Hill that is. Just found this video posted at another forum. Interesting to note that, well - the people in the beginning of the video look older than the stereotypical offroader. Kudos though. YouTube - 4-Wheel Roll Over Accident Part 1 Heart Attack Hill Anza Borrego Springs

    Rant: Temperture Needle Is Working

    I had the radiator (cracked) replaced months ago with an aftermarket 3 rows metal. But had OEM hoses and belts put in. Prior to the relacement, I had OEM rad with the original hoses and aftermarket belts (Gates). Only thing not replaced was the thermostat (never had an overheating problem). I...

    WTF Stuff People Try To Sell In CL

    Described as having 10% tread left. This is worth $35? To be used as a spare - Ill probably go further with the flat tire than use this. Its like paying the seller to pick up his garbage. Shhsssh. And if I squint hard enough I can see rust on the steel belts.
