    For Sale  ATX - GX470 "Unicorn kit" - Convert your Nav to Non-Nav (complete) - $500 shipped lower 48

    I sold my GX470 before I could complete the swap out of the head unit and the person who bought it wanted to keep factory Nav. Don't ask. Anyway - their poor decision making paradigm is your gain. This is a combined packaged deal and should be everything you need to switch your existing Nav...

    Need help finding my old rig... probably in Canada

    Hey fellow Cruiser lovers. This is silly, but I’m also 99% sure most of you have “been here”. A little over ten years ago I sold a mint diesel converted 88 fj62 to a nice fella in Vancouver from my home in a Austin Tex. Since then it has changed hands at least once but I’ve lost track of it...

    ROTM: 1988 BJ-62T aka “The Zombie Apocalypse Wagon”

    Welcome and thanks. I’m stoked and appreciative to have the opportunity to shine a little light on my rig. Like all of you, IH8MUD has been a source of ideas and inspiration for me over the years, and I’m just glad that I was able to finish this project before any new ideas came my way that...

    Recently totaled 80 in boulder co area??

    I'm looking for the owner of a built 80 series that I met in the lobby at Slee about three weeks ago. You asked at the time if I was interested in buying the supercharger off of your rig and I said no but I may be now. Please PM me if you can. I can't remember your handle here on mud. Thanks...

    Man-a-fre level lift kits

    Has anyone used MAF's 3" front/2" rear OME lift combo? It looks like a good way to go for me but I'd like to know what the springs are that the kit uses (medium or heavy) and how the ride is with it. I emailed them to ask but haven't heard back so I thought I'd ask here as well and maybe get...

    Need a good mechanic in Dallas/grand prairie

    One of my good friends is looking at buying an 80 in Dallas near Grand Prairie. Can anyone give me a lead or two on a good mechanic that could do a full inspection on this vehicle for him. He lives in OKC and has been on the hunt for months but doesn't want to buy blind. Thanks in advance Koby

    Enclosed all-terrain campers?

    Does anyone know of any way to buy or make an enclosed all-terrain camper? I don't want something big, maybe 17' or so, but I want something that can go with my family and I on fire roads and BLM roads. Not too hardcore but I'd want to have good clearance and the ability to mount A/T tires. I...

    Running a 24v accessory on a 12v system?

    I tried search (here on mud and google) but wasn't able to find a complete answer so I thought I'd ask the group. Does anyone know of a way to step up the power from my 12V system to power a 24V component? It is just the lights and thermometer guage from an HJ61 overhead console that I've got...

    Making the switch, need some help from Toyota Service pros..?

    Hey gang Long time listener, first time caller to this side of the forum. I've been living over the 60-series section for a while and, as in all things, the time has come to move up. So here I am. I've been on the hunt for a solid, low mileage (under 150K) 80 that is a 95 or later model...

    Looking for a 95 or later 80-series in town...

    Hey guys I'm thinking about switching to the next bracket in Cruisers and making the jump from 15 years of 60 series to an 80 series. If anyone is thinking about selling an 80 (pref with factory, lockers but not ragged out) that is good condition shoot me a PM. It'll be my daily driver (I...

    Way to "step-up" from 12V to 24V?

    I tried searching but struck out so I apologize if this question has been asked and answered already. If so - please feel free to just point me to a post if you know it. I have a 12V US/CAN 60 series wagon. I just installed the overhead console from a 24V JDM HJ61 in my rig. Installation was a...

    Window runs sticking on all doors. Any fixes?

    Subject says it all. I'm not sure it is the window runs, but the windows are all stiff and hard to roll up and down. Except on hot days. Hot weather makes them easy to roll down. New window runs all the way around are pretty pricey so I thought I'd see if anyone knew of alternative solutions...

    3B Thermostat Question

    I ordered up a thermostat and tstat gasket from Rockauto recently in an effort to resolve a "luke warm" heating issue in my truck. I went install everything and the new t-stat is totally different from the old one (but it fits no problem) and there were no gaskets in there when I opened it up...

    Added AC power to the dash

    I got a little bored tonight and decided to see about adding an AC plug to my dash. I had purchased an inverter a while ago but couldn't figure out where to put it. After staring at it I decided to take the faceplate off and I saw pretty quickly that the whole plug could be easily extended and...

    OME Install for Dummies - with pics

    A few weeks back I picked up a set of OME Heavies from Kling-On along with shiny new OME hardwear to mount it all up. It was just the ticket that I was looking - broken in OME heavies that were of the old Aussie manufacture. If I did the work myself I'd be saving a pretty penny when it was all...
