    Fan Clutch Time for the 3FE

    Hi Guys, Looks like it's time to replace the fan clutch on the 91 FJ80. Yesterday she was running at 3/4 on the temp gauge. After driving home with the heat on I found the fan clutch is leaking at the hub. Does anybody have one ready to go with the heavier oil? Thanks for the help, Brad...

    A440 Transmission Rebuild?

    I just got the motor out of my 91 FJ80 (3FE). She has 280K and is getting her first rebuild. The transmission (A440 Mechanical) is working fine but she has high miles and I did have the trans temp light come on once on a long hill while in high gear. Should I rebuild the transmission? What...

    Part Time 4WD? 3FE Motor Removal?

    My brake job had just turned into a motor rebuild. There is a logical progression to that statement. My FJ80 is a 91 with 3FE motor. She is slow and tired and can use a rebuild since she is leaking oil, ATF, and coolant from every connection. I'm pretty sure I've dumped more oil in the...

    Power Steering Cooler?

    I'm finally installing the steering box I rebuilt along with new Pressure and Return lines on my 3FE FJ80. Has anybody added a cooler to the power steering? I'm not sure how much value add it would be, but since the front of the truck is torn apart now is the time to do it. I'm running...

    How Accurate is CarFax?

    How accurate is the mileage listed on Carfax? I’m helping a friend look for a car in the $3500 range and every car so far is off by 100k miles according to car fax. The last car we looked at was a 97 Camry, the car was clean, tight, and ran well. The car showed 130K on the odometer but carfax...

    Singapore Toyotas and 4x4's

    Happy Roman New Year from Singapore (Chinese New Year is Feb. 3rd). Here are some Toyotas and 4x4’s from Singapore. Unfortunately I have not seen too much in the way of 4x4 Toyotas. I think there are two reasons for this: 1. Singapore is a big city like Manhattan. I’ve seen more Ferraris and...

    Which Suspension Bushings to Use?

    The short bus is all over the road and needs every bushing replaced front and rear. She flexes out nice on the trail but also at red lights and turns. Hitting the brakes on a crowned road makes my rosary heat up from over use. I need front and rear sway bar, all control arms, and front and...
