I have a '00 100 series and replaced the OEM head unit (Matsushita #86120-0C040 [Toyota model # A56811 6 disc)] roughly two years ago with a JVC KW-AV71BT (support.jvc.com/consumer/product.jsp?modelId=MODL029189) and retained the factory amp (Matsushita #86280-60210).
I am now hearing the...
Hello all, any recommendations on an LC mechanic in the Western NC or extreme upstate area? I've been woefully unimpressed with the dealership in Asheville.
I change my oil last weekend from Valvoline SynPower 5W-30 with Valvoline filter (4k miles) to an OEM filter (90915-YZZD3) and Mobil 1 High Mileage 5W-30 advanced full synthetic.
My oil gauge went from reading just under ¼ at idle at just under ½ at 2500 to 3000 RPMS to now reading just over ½...
Had my starter replaced in my 100 and I now have a vibration noticeable idling at stop lights or parking lots while in drive or reverse. The vibration is not present when idling in neutral.
I believe I’ve determined that the vibration goes away after driven for a while and warmed up. No...
Brand new (and unopened box) starter for 2UZFE.
Starter model is 28100-50070-84. Verify this part # is correct for your ride.
Fits 100 series Land Cruiser and Tundra V8s. I purchased from Beno with the intention of installing myself when the time came but alas the starter died out of town far...
I'm needing any and all recommendations for trusted online salvage parts sources or even a company who doesn't have online ordering but I can call.
Specifically I need the sunroof glass (w/the attached oem gasket). Not as easy to find as bumper skins or other parts.
Thanks in advance and...
Does the super well built green 80 with ARB front and rear, lift and what looked like 35" belong to anyone here? Super clean ride and a dream 80 by anyone's standards.
Joy oh joy. While in the process of chasing down my vibration issues my mech discovered that my new PowerStop rotors were slightly distorted. Apparently 10 to 15% of all rotors come out of the box slightly imperfect.
Now after only 2k miles I've had my new rotors turned to the tune of $190. No...
Last Friday I discovered I have a new and often serious vibration. Saturday Feb 11th had my Ironman bumper installed and t bars on adjusted to almost level out the front end. This past Friday heading up to the North GA Mountains I noticed that I had a serious but infrequent vibration. It ONLY...
Thanks for a job well done on the Ironman bumper on my 100 series.
The whole purchase and install was seamless. Everything, and I mean everything, went as described. A rarity these deals with most businesses. Plus your attention to detail was incredible; painting parts to blend and even...
Hi folks, any suggestions for some good forest service road rides in the above areas? Water crossings, remote roads, etc.? Not looking for hardcore wheeling this trip just some out back of beyond rides with the kids in our Hundy.
We've done Rich Mtn Wma when open, Dolly Gap in the Cohuttas, Sea...
I have a Bucket Boss Pro GateMouth that I carry tow strap, tools and other gear but wondering what others store their spare fluids like ATF, engine oil etc in. I ask because I'm tired of the cat urine like smell of ATF wafting thru the cab. Amsoil ATF smells real bad.
I should add I don't have...
Saw this and thought it was interesting:

I don't know about the 1400 mile range but the extra fuel capacity is impressive!
Don't know if this has been posted before, if so I apol
How many of you are running aftermarket bumpers with the stock torsion bars? Christo made a good point in a post when he said stock torsion bars can be adjusted to level out the front end after installing a bumper but it doesn't compensate for the new 150 + lbs hanging off the front end (sorry...
I have a vibration at 1500 rpm that feels almost as if is "rotational" and harmonic. While I have a similar vibration at roughly 2500 rpm when the AC is on it is very subtle and not as pronounced as the lower rpm vibration.
The 1500 rpm vibration seems to happen at roughly 30 mph (AC off) and...
I'll be replacing my VCG this weekend. Tired of smelling burnt oil on the exhaust manifolds and thought I would do before my DT headers come in from the 3rd group buy.
Any hints or tips? Anything else I should do when I'm in there?
Thanks in advance.
My passenger side rear window goes down easily but almost comes to a stop half way up. I've lubed the mechanism but it really didn't help. Could it be the motor is failing, the window runs are toast or both?
I would guess the window runs are cheaper and easier to replace than a motor...
In the past six months I've taken TLCA up their offer via email to submit technical questions. Done so for my '00 100 series (and my '07 FJ). The Hundy question was related to water pump woes and an unseen leak. I expected to wait months for my questions to get published if ever responded to at...
