    Click, Click, Click, rear locker?

    93 LC with factory lockers, 180k miles, bone stock... Did the front axles a while back with parts from CDan and recently had the head gasket, tires, brakes, etc done at a local shop. As soon as I got the truck back I tried the lockers (for the first time in a long time) but they didn't engage...

    Really BAD noise at starting

    93 LC with almost 200k made a terrible noise when I turned the key a few months ago. Tried a few times and didn't start, just made the loud, bad noise. Friend said try taking it from park to neutral and after a few more tries of the key it finally didn't make the noise and started (tho I kinda...

    Can't get the coil spring back on!

    I'm trying to put two Mr Gasket 1" spacers on the top of the springs to correct the Stink Bug look (and low headlight shine) I got from installing an ARB front bumper. Did a search, and what little I could find sounded like an easy job... Got the wheels both off, the sway bar disconnected (tire...

    BAD noise 7k after front axle rebuild

    Very ugly, loud, grinding noise started as I pulled out from a store heading for home. Only did it when starting off or giving some gas. Did make it home. Seemed to be coming from the ps front wheel, so I took everything apart expecting the worse. But everything looks fine. The Front...

    Brake rotor overheating after brake job

    Maybe someone with experience with front axel rebuilds and brakes would know this: I did the front axle and new 100 rotors and pads job. Bed-in the brakes and after 18 miles I've got one wheel with a tiny bit of play in it when off the ground. Is this okay? Should I tighten down the wheel...

    Front axel rebuild gone bad

    Parts came from Cdan last week and the 54mm socket from Amazon. New wheel bearings and brakes (for a 100) as well.. Got the PS done yesterday, and today got to the point of putting the steering arm, lower bearing, and outer knuckle housing back on. Everything lined up, but male part of steering...

    Engine running rough

    My LC runs rough, not always, maybe 10% of the time. Not so much at speeds over 60, but any other time, and usually only for a few seconds to a minute or so. The problem seems to be getting worse, enough so I’m leery of taking any long trips until I get the problem resolved. Could this be a fuel...

    Maybe I don't need to change the differential oil?

    Got some Mobil 1 today and crawled under my '93 LC (137k) to change the gear oil in the front and rear. Took the fill plug off first and a small line ran down. Stuck my little finger in expecting some really dark nasty stuff, but it's as clear as the Rottela T 5w-40 I put in the engine a little...

    Code 22?

    Got the oil cooler cover and gaskets from CDan yesterday and got everything put back together today. Short test drive and CED on the way back. Paper clip test shows 22 as well as the usual 83, 84, 85. Search finds everything but 22 and can't find the code listings in my new FSM. Anyone tell me...

    Oil Cooler leaking water?

    '93 1FZ-FE After waiting a week and a half for t-stat and housing gasket and putting those on I discovered that wasn't the problem. The water is coming from a hole (1/8") in the oil cooler housing just below and behind the t-stat housing. Consulting my new FSM it looks like this is beyond my...

    Leaky thermostat housing

    93 FZJ - 1FZ-FE (FSM ordered) Really leaking bad around the t-stat housing (the one behind, closest to the engine). Got the outer housing off, but the t-stat doesn't want to come out (easily) from it's housing, and I can't get that housing off because the a/c compresser is in the way. Behind...

    '93 FZJ80 - Still running rough

    I'd posted a couple of weeks ago the 93 LC I'd just bought was running rough. With a new intake hose on the way (and new plugs, wires, dist cap just installed by PO) it was suggested I wrap Saran Wrap and/or duct tape around the old hose in the meantime. Great advice, it did help! :) Finally...

    '93 FJ80 - Just bought it and it runs ROUGH!

    93 FJ80 all stock with 133k I just bought yesterday from out of town (100+ miles). Drove it a few days ago and it ran rough. Guy said he'd (dealer that sells on ebay) have it cleaned up and tuned up for me before I picked it up. So yesterday he said the 'hose' on the top of the motor (foot...
