    Cruiser Shakes Violently - more scary stuff!

    I had a very similar issue to this in my 97 landcruiser. After much testing I also determined that it did not seem to be related to engine speed. What did seem to trigger the start of the wobble was accelerating over an uneven road - i'm not talking a dirt road but just crappy highway pavement...

    Hey guys here's something I read and was curious about. First off, this came from a range rover site so they are obvously going to talk highly of their rigs - but I thought this was interesting: The Range Rover Secret: Suspension Design Range Rovers have always been distinguished by...

    Twin 80's or 4Runner + 80???

    After having both trucks - If I were in your situation I would go for 1 80 + 4runner: I had a 2000 4runner SR5 - 5 speed, great truck 18-20MGP in the city 21+ MPG on the highway. Pulled our tent trailer better than the 80 can (probably due to manual transmission). Defects as I see - part...

    Got my Scangauge II!

    Just out of curiousity, have any of you noted what the scangauge reads for Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) when you are not on the gas pedal? Mine scangauge reads 8 when at idle or not on the gas pedal. In the manual for the scangauge it says some cars go TPS 0-100, others are above 0 when no...

    Is the FZJ80 loud?

    I don't think it's an exaust hole, cause once it's warmed up its fairly quite at idle....it's more of a "drone" when your on the gas as described by jamisobe. I guess it's probably normal for a big truck.

    Is the FZJ80 loud?

    I've only had mine since Oct, but it seems to always have done it. Worse in cold weather

    Is the FZJ80 loud?

    Hey guys - just a question. I have had my stock 97 FZJ80 for about 6 months now. It seems to me that during regular driving the sound in the cabin from the drivetrain/engine is quite loud compared to other trucks I have had/been in. Nothing seems wrong, it just seems that when I'm on the gas...

    intermittant rear vibration

    Took the rear wheels off this past weekend and pulled of the rotor/park drums sure enough the drivers side park brake was seized solid. The shoes actually expanded and latched to the drum as I was trying to take it off....took a lot of effort but it eventually broke free. Plenty of small...

    Security lug nut broken

    This happened to me a couple of months ago. Didn't know what to do. Tire was flat but would hold air for an hour or two. Drove it to the nearest Toyota dealer, they chisiled the broken lug off and fixed the flat for $20. I had them remove the other three security lugs and replaced all 4 with...
