    South American Expedition

    Hey everyone, I figured instead of making an individual thread for every video we make I could use this one to catalog our travel content as we make our way through South America. After nearly 3 months in Colombia, we are now in Ecuador, which means I have had the time to put together a new...

    Wobbly wheel?

    Hey team. So I was getting some light wobble when I turned the steering wheel *very slightly* to the right. I lifted the front end and sure enough there's a decent amount of play in the left wheel when pushing from the 12 and 6 o'clock position. The trucks been in a lot of rivers and mud...

    KZJ78 Front diff

    Hey guys, so we've been in Colombia now for about 2 weeks, after shipping the truck from Mexico, we went through some pretty sticky mud in the somewhat dry lakebeds of the Guajira desert and did some dune driving and hitting mountain mud roads. But overall, no real difficult or heavy 4x4. I...

    Overlanding Belize

    Did you know Belize gets new Land Cruisers? If you ever go there, stop at a Westrac, it's like a NAPA but better. We loved Belize so much we went there a second time, and now with enough material, made a new video. We went back because, well, we had to wait a few weeks. But I'm happy to say, the...

    1KZ Turbo Vacuum line size?

    Hola, I did some digging around and found a few guys say the line is 6mm (piping in a manual boost controller). So I picked up some 6mm line and it seems a bit bigger than what's on there now. It looks like a pain in the ass getting in there and the gauge mounts haven't got here yet so I won't...

    KZJ78 limp mode

    Here's another one for you Another day another issue with the wonderful kzj78. So the truck is essentially in limp mode right now, it seems to pull relatively normal up to 2200rpm and then just stops at 2200rpm. This is true in Low, 2, D with O/D on or off, doesn't matter. Still feels like it...

    Hey again, So after pulling the manifold off to change some gaskets seeping delicious EGR goo it almost looks like the head gasket has a leak?

    Suspension options for 70 series?

    I'm at a point with the truck where it is accumulating a fair amount of weight (roof top tent, drawer system with tools in the back, water storage, etc.) and it's starting to bottom out on me at higher speed off road sections plus the lean to the right is a bit more noticeable. It has a 2.5 or...

    Starting issue?

    Hey guys, the truck has been taking quite a while to crank before it starts nowadays. Worse in the morning or any period of time it sits for a while. I think I've figured it out... When I turn it to ACC the pump doesn't prime. I can hear the glow plugs click and then nothing, dead quiet. Before...

    How do you grease the front ball joints?

    Hey how do I actually grease the front ball joints on the cruiser? I mean I see there's a threaded fill hole maybe? But it's a 16mm thread so do I need a grease fitting for that? Or do I just pump grease in with a regular grease gun? Sorry I know this is probably s*** simple I just don't know...
