Hey guys I need to get the upper half of my hatch off and go the body shop for some rust tlc. But I'm having some trouble fishing the wire harness through the grommet. I've manged to pull one connector through and disconnect 2 wires, but there are more and I can't feel any other connectors...
Custom wiring harness from EZ Wiring (not Painless but same idea). New in box, but was on the shelf for probably 6-7 years. Cut the zip ties off one of the legs to lay it out one time. Never installed.
Perfect harness for rewiring motor swaps.

Hey guys I'm going to take the cruiser in to have the rear hatch surface rust fixed up, but the shop hasn't done any cruiser work before and are worried about the gasket and the window. For the record no one around here has done cruiser work :) And the window has to come out as the rust is...
Hey guys, last winter I had started a tune up project that didn't up to well here
https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/first-time-tune-up-truck-runs-like-crap.785363/
Basically new seals/gaskets on the front/top half of the motor, new cap/rotor and plugs. When it all went back to together it...
I ended up having to wait around a week for a replacement bolt from the local toyota dealership, so I figured I would do the tune up and reseal job I had meant to do in the summer. Why I waited until it got below freezing, who knows. But I was leaking oil at a pretty steady rate and the work...
Hey guys, I have a paper 97 FSM that I would never part with. My problem is finding a 97 EWD. Seems there are some common years for the books available on ebay, 97 not being one of them.
My question is, how much yearly specific info are in these books? Would a 95 EWD be fine for me...
Looking for a dead rear most O2 sensor from (or will mate up to) a 97 fzj.
More specifically, looking for the connector and the pigtail going to the sensor. I don't actually care about the sensor just looking for a decent shape connector and wires.
Hey guys, I ended up snapping the the lower bolt on my USDS rear caliper while trying to remove the caliper. The one without the full boot. The little plug on the end looked intact before I destroyed it trying to press the remainder of the pin out.
I had the caliper off as recently as...
Hey guys, I picked up a free to me shop press the other day. The only problem is it looks like the cylinder is leaking all the hydraulic fluid everywhere. I don't know much more about these things other then pump and release. So my lingo may be off :P
The cylinder is a separate unit from...
Removed the valve cover yesterday and snapped a pic of my baby's naughty parts. I've never really been in here before, so if anyone has any opinions on what kind of shape my heads in that would be great!
I did notice that the area between 1+2 is somewhat more clean then the rest of the...
So my rear axle seals went on the drivers side. I have it all apart and am going to boot it up, but am not sure how the small seal on the end of the spindle is installed.
The old seal looked like it came apart and is half the size if the new seal. What was left of the old seal was inside the...
Had my caliper off this summer, but when i tried to take it off today, the lower caliper bolt sheared about a 1/2 inch in to the smooth section of the pin.
I was able to remove the threaded portio
n was it sheared, and was able to get the caliper away from bracket.
I've since removed...
Hey guys it's starting to get cold so guess what, power window is stuck down. Yay for freezing in the evening ;)
I had replace the master switch about 4 years ago with a generic unit so figured that went, but it tested out fine. So I took the power cable off the motor and ran 12v across it...
Looking for the connector and wires that are actually connected to the second (post cat) o2 sensor. Hopefully from a bad sensor and the connector/wires are in decent shape.
Thanks.
Well brakes started squeaking a couple of weeks ago. Finally had a look today and unfortunately all the pads were ok :-) but found some oil dripping off the bottom of the rotor. And evidence on the inside of the rim and tire of dripping for a while.
All the other pads were fine, so I'm...
So I was unloading some items on the passenger seat from the drivers side, and I guess I was leaning on the seat controls. Well didn't even notice the seat was reclined damn near all the way backwards until I left the next day in the morning.
Definitely was like WTF is my seat doing...
Haha ok I got into a minor fender bender last year, and cracked my turn signal housing. Well I gooped it up and thought it was sealed. Guess I was wrong lol.
Turns out the housing was over half full of water! Just drilled a "custom" drain hole at the bottom and add it the list of s*** to...
Hey guys, my T1809 just arrived and I am pumped to start cutting up my dash :) Only problem is I'm not sure what ipod cable to get.
Most of the cables I've seen, come off the scion and end up having the apple connector (to plug right in to your device). I'd like a cleaner install then...
I've always had pretty dim headlights, so finally I decided to grab some HIR bulbs and a slee harness as everyone raves about how well it works out. Well I'm not sure if it's supposed to work this good, because damn it's bright lol!
Before you ask how anyone could screw that up, as its...
Hey guys, getting some work done on a project thats been bugging me since last fall.
I'll do a proper write up of the install once finished, but thought I'd throw a few pics up and grab some feedback. Most of my install pics got stolen with my laptop. So these are from a couple of days ago...
