I Looked and didn’t find a thread for 80s with Luke’s front/rear bumpers. Just bought a rear from him but can’t decide if I want to run his front or an arb. Anybody mind posting their rigs with 4x4 labs front or rear bumpers?
Wanted to hop on here and see if anyone knew what could be going on with my 80. At approx 55 miles an hour while maintaining speed or coasting I feel a pretty violent lurch. Feels like it could be driveline related. My 80 is lifted 3 inches, no caster correction, but does have a front dc drive...
This may not be the right area to post this thread. But… Black Friday is right around the corner and I have some 80 series money burning a hole in my pocket. I currently don’t have a spare tire that work for my 80. Been needing to get a full size spare, but I know it won’t fit underneath. So...
Figured I’d jump on here to see what y’all think. Gonna be a big one. I have a few things. First off. My 80 is on a 3 inch doninsons lift on 34 inch ridge grapps. I Noticed today when I have my 80 locked in front and rear and in 4 low… when I roll forward and switch between full lock left...
I’m sure there’s more info out there on the forums but I Just figured I’d make a post on here dedicated to seeing what other 80 owners use their Ultra gauge for and where they mounted them. I installed mine today. Went with the MX 1.4 version even though I know I won’t be able to use the extra...
I’m a 80 series guy but Ive been looking for a cruiser for my parents to take on trips with me and my other Toyota buddies. My best friend found this 100 series on marketplace so I decided to go take a look at it. We checked it out, drove it and ended up making a deal with the seller. The...
for some reason my 80 randomly died out on the trail. Miles out of town in the back country in Kentucky. Thing has been doing great all day. Randomly died and won’t start back. Alternator is good. Tried to start back and then just lost it. Could use some pointers. I wonder if it’s the fuel...
I wanted to post on here and see if I can get any pointers. I believe it is my birfield joints that pop in 4 low at full lock left or right. Took the square bolt out of the top of the knuckle on both sides and started greasing. They clear up but eventually always start popping again. They do...
Was just getting back from a wet camping trip. Had gone through several waterholes and all of a sudden my Speedo started wigging out and then worked again. Next day It doesn’t work at all and lies on Zero. Been reading up on different things it could be. Just pulled my sensor off of my transfer...
Tons of info out there in the forums on method wheels. Been doing some research on the bead grip technology and different models they offer. Due to the hub bore size on the 80s, on methods website they only offer 1 wheel model with bead grip for the 80s and front center caps are not...
Cruising through the parking lot at Topgolf in Charlotte Nc tonight and rolled up on this gem. Couldn’t find any info about the owner. Would love to see if they are on the mud forums and learn more about it. Wish I drove my 80 tonight.
TONS of information everywhere on mud about installing dual batteries on an 80 so I’m not trying to offend anyone lol. I just Wanted to see if anyone knew the best place to source a dual battery tray. I see that slee has them (175 bucks) and I have already talked to Toyota (quoted me 200 bucks...
Found some deep rust on my passenger floor board that had made its way through so I decided to cut the small section out and grind the rest of the surface rust down and coat it with some Crc until I could have a new piece welded in. Of course accidentally while I was cutting I nicked the metal...
Been looking for a set of wheels for my 80 as well as a set of 33-35s. Don’t know if those “rocktrix” wheels are any good but they seem to be getting decently popular. I’m shooting for some KMC’s but those rock trix look like a decent budget option. Haven’t seen anybody or another forum mention...
Just ordered some budget Lasfit led pods and I am looking for a way to mount them. I have seen some people use a mount that bolts to the bottom hood bolt or just a regular clamp mount. I know there are tons of options so I just wanted to hop on here and see what you guys use/prefer. Also have an...
Wanted to ask on the forms and see if anybody knew what this sound was. Whenever I am driving at approximately 60 miles an hour and let off and let it fall to around 30 I hear an odd grinding/vibrating sound. I just greased my Berfield joints, so I think I’m going to grease the rest of the...
Looking for a set of good mt's or at's for my 80 with a 3 inch lift. I would consider buying some '17 wheels too, just depends on what is available. i would like to have some 305/70/16s or some 315/70/16s that fit the original wheels if i do not buy aftermarket wheels. i am in NC between...
Just pulled the trans pan off my 80, replaced the fluid strainer and flushed the old fluid out through the cooler mounted near the radiator. Put the pan back on with oem silicone and used Valvoline ATF max life for the fresh fill up. BUT one thing I did not do was replace the shift solenoids...
I have searched for a similar thread. Haven’t found one so I am making my own. Getting ready to take my 80 on a road trip. I believe all of the baseline maintenance has been done by me. All Fluids have been changed and some flushed, hoses, belts, fan clutch, valve cover gasket, radiator is...
