    HZJ75 bolt sourcing help please.

    My belts started squeaking on startup and when I went to look I realized the lower bolt on the alternator is missing. While looking over the engine I also noticed that two of the three bolts holding the power steering reservoir are missing. I have a 1990 HZJ75 and currently located in Reno, NV...

    Mechanic help, Reno NV, HZJ75 not going into gear.

    I’m on a road trip and made it to Reno Nevada last night. My Troopy was not going into 5th for the last 1.5hrs of the drive and had difficulty going into 1st or 2nd once off the highway. Does anyone have any mechanic recommendations around Reno? Thanks in advance.

    Great Toyota mechanic in NZ?

    Hi everyone, I’m in NZ and about to buy a 1993 Toyota Hiace 4x4 camper. I’m really excited as it’s my dream van and I want to maintain it very well. That said, does anyone know of a great, independent, Toyota mechanic in New Zealand? I’m happy to consider a dealership as well but my experience...

    HZJ75 16" steel wheel help

    I plan on getting the other 4, just not in the budget at the moment. I will be happy to have a full size spare until then.

    HZJ75 16" steel wheel help

    Thanks for the help everyone! After reading and talking to a few people I ordered a spare 70 series 16" steel wheel from Land Cruiser Parts and Consulting. Not the cheapest option but I won't need spacers with this wheel and thats what I wanted most. Edit: For anyone interested I bought part...

    HZJ75 16" steel wheel help

    Thanks for the info @Tennessee Jed. Do you (or anyone else) know what year range I need to be looking in for these OEM steel wheels? Also does anyone know if searching for tacoma vs. tundra wheels makes a difference in the holes? As in I noticed some have all round holes while others have two...

    HZJ75 16" steel wheel help

    Hi everyone, Im getting ready for Cruise Moab and bought a matching spare tire as my spare was undersized. When I went to remove my spare I realized its a 15" wheel, my other 4 are 16". So far I have learned that Tacoma or Tundra steel spares may work for my 1990 HZJ75. I'm looking at the...

    Hey @Willis, what photo would help? My battery post was mostly trying to figure out if I should buy a group 27 or group 31 battery as I read about both in 70 series posts. I included the battery and isolator pics to show everyone what I had going on. As I read more and started attending...

    Thanks @77cruiser77, I'm okay with waiting to buy a good set as I don't need the Troopy for anything till spring. She's just sitting in a safe spot till then.

    Builds 1990 HZJ75 Troopy build thread.

    Been reading and learning a bit. I'm looking forward to diving into my electrical system and doing all my own crimping, soldering, shrink wrap, etc. I was able to get enough juice in my old battery with a charger to get the Troopy started. I'm hoping this battery will last a few months (no real...

    Can anyone recommend a good book for learning vehicle wiring? As in the 101 or for dummies type. Thanks

    Builds 1990 HZJ75 Troopy build thread.

    What I'm reading so far is the old battery will degrade the new one. I'm ignorant to electric and it's on my list to learn. What I'm trying to understand is how one battery can degrade the other if they are isolated from one another

    Thanks for the info. Unfortunately two batteries is out of the budget right now. I was hoping to make it till spring to replace both but it appears I cannot wait. I'm going to try and charge my old battery one last time but I'm not holding my breath. What is the downside to replacing only one...
