Thoughts on front and rear diff and transfer case oil on my 105 series solid axle (nonIFS).
I run 50mm lift and 35s Cooper MTs, and have quite a bit of road vibration through the vehicle.
Manual says GL-4 or GL-5 for diffs. Should I be looking @ higher viscosity oils? GL-5 states 75W-85
Transfer...
Hi, just wondering ARE these worth investing in, or should I just place tweeters in the front Left and Right bottom windscreen areas.
I guess I'm also asking what is better placement as well / are they good in these / do most tweeters fit in side these:
So I took off my blower resister because currently the AC goes from low to 2, but doesn't function on HI at all
Have some pics wondering if someone can identify quickly what this relay is for? Is it the AC relay.. would make sense if the blower is having problems reaching HI
Burnt out by the...
I am just about to purchase the DENSO Compressor oil as I'm doing a full system rebuild except hard lines.
AC Compressor was recently replaced. I now have new condenser , evaporator, expansion valve, pressure switch, thermistor sensor to put in.
I need to put AC oil into the these parts and to...
So I'm trying to educate myself on Car AC systems in desperate attempt to fix mine.
After viewing a Youtube video on removing the TX valve , I went and popped the hood to make sure I knew where mine was.
So I found it, but I have this weird small piece of heat shield and ductape, taped on top...
I have 2x9" thermo fans coming to fit flat on the condenser. 248mm diamter, should go side by side after mounting the A/T cooler forward 30-40mm or so.
I also have some foam insulation coming 1 metre, to seal the top of the radiator <-> engine compartment (pic below)
My question to anyone...
Do both these types of fans fit on all 100 series LCs, or do they go on different models.
Which one is better? 7 or 8 fin. Perhaps one pushes more air through than the other. Interesting.
Howdy people, summer here in .au and just back from a day on the beach relaxing in the sun and watching the kids have fun in the water.
I have this rattle near the exhaust pipes, mid section of the vehicle. It's right next to the transmission somewhere under there. It seemed to have gotten...
Ok, so just thought I would start thread from scratch. Hopefully someone on the forum has had plenty of experience with fitting a custom condenser fan.

I have no idea if USA has models with no filters being manufactured.

Email this guy if you want one: keith@cabinairfilters.com.au. I'm sure he could work out some sort of delivery option.
Pretty straight forward question, I'm replacing my air intake hose and found this patched into the old patchup job
Do these actually work?

Tools:
Small flathead screwdriver
Long Needle nose tweezers (I suggest tweezers, plyers will not allow you to manouver the grommet to put string around it inside).
Plyers and something like medium size block of wood; or use the handle of a socket wrench or small hammer.
Thick piece of string...
I am going to change my bottom radiator hose, this will mean emptying the fluid of course.
I am thinking about changing the Heater T's and hoses while I am there.
Is there anything else I should do while I've got the radiator empty? Possibly a clean with something etc ?
Wondering if these are easy fixes. The radiator hose is leaking all over my brand new alternator. Not hitting the belts which is good
This is an easy fix huh? Wondering about the hose on the engine cover too, what it is possibly? Looks like its leaking a little.
I have found a combination of mods that could add Steering wheel functionality to standard steering wheels.
It would require removing the covers on standard wheels and then putting the below:
1) This is the cover for steering wheels WITH steering wheel controls (perhaps someone can confirm)...
Landcruiser 100 Series Door Handle Replacement.
Landcruiser model FZJ105R used in video but should apply to most models.
Front LH & Rear RH handles replaced in video (covers both key barrel and non-key barrel handles)
I could not find and information on how to replace these so decided to...
Hi everyone. These handles have become snapped . Is there a good aftermarket way of fixing these?
If I buy the plastic chromed LC door handles will that be enough to fix these. Hoping its just the plastic in these thats snapped (not something metal on the inside)...
