Ok folks, I’m getting a sound like a bad bearing somewhere. I’ve pulled all drive belts, and it continued. So I thought it might be the timing belt tensioner. Doesn’t get louder with the cover off. Could it be in the injection pump? Has anyone heard this annoying sound before?
I posted a short...
Is there any reason a after factory set of headlights for a LHD FZJ80 wouldn't work on a RHD HDJ81? I took my headlights apart to paint the trim, and it seems like the washers might connect back to the bottom. The water line route might not exist though.

The market is high because of uneducated buyers paying too much for rigs, largely because of the popularity of Overlanding, and Overland Bound. The drastic price increases lately are not because the trucks are suddenly worth more.
In my experience the people who show up defending these...
I looked at, and drove this rig. It’s very clean, and very tight. Lockers engage, and disengage smoothly. The gears really help with pep.
