    1993 Fzj-80 Maroon

    Trying to sell my 80 because I got something new for graduation. Its maroon with grey leather interior, 109k miles. Unfortunately it does not have the factory lockers, but it does have almost new BFG MT-R's. Shoot me an email at joseph.mercadante@gmail.com if you're interested, because I...

    Electrical question

    mine does that too. i don't know if its a grounding problem or not, but it definitely is noticeable. I don't plan on looking into any electrical gremlins any time soon. Also, at idle with the A/C on my headlights are definitely dimmer until I hit the gas.

    Birfs

    Anyone know a reputable mechanic in the Northern NJ or NYC area to do a birfield job? I just don't trust my regular guy to do a superior job, especially since he's never done it before. Dare I take it to the stealership?

    Landcruiser mechanics

    I'm looking for the same thing. I have a list about 5 long of BAD landcruiser mechanics in the northern NJ area. Haven't found a decent one yet.

    Is this a scam 2000 80 for $12,000 or cars.com

    it's definitely a scam, or possibly a scamola. I almost got nailed on one of these with a motorcycle from greece. Found it on ebay, price was too good to be true. As soon as I emailed the guy, he took it off ebay (to avoid their buyer protection) and said he wouldn't accept paypal (to avoid...

    when will your 80 wear out?

    My dad has a '92 80 with 266k on it. He beats the snot out of the thing. Irregular oil changes, cheapest parts, no love. That's the reason he drives it. He knows it'll take whatever he throws at it. He spends all day in that truck, it's basically his office. It has the cloth interior...

    Defrosting

    Mine's a '93, and the A/C does not come on automatically. I had an adventure today driving into philly for the villanova/kansas game in the blizzard. The recirc helped, but a truck full of drunk college students didn't. I definitely think you guys are right about the hidden source of...

    Defrosting

    never thought of that. makes sense. I'll be driving tomorrow in the blizzard so i'll let you know how it turns out.

    Defrosting

    I've always had problems with frost building up inside the truck. If it's raining out or if there is more than one person inside, I usually need to run the defroster at full blast. It's not uncommon for me to have to turn on the A/C compressor even in the winter just to aid in defrosting...

    Fusible Link Question. Need to get rid of my HOT WIRING set-up

    The Fusible link is exactly that, a weird type of fuse. They are quickly becoming obsolete because cartridge type fuses have become more reliable. Fusible links have traditionally been used in high current situations (>30 Amps), so you should be more than safe using a 20 A fuse.

    Steering Box on '93

    100 points for cruiserdan. When I was attaching it I said to myself "I wonder how long it's going to take these guys to tell me that my tow hook is on backwards." An hour and a half is pretty good. I'm going to clean it up tomorrow, I may not toss any money at it currently. It still works...

    Looking at a LC

    I found a '93 with no lockers and 81k for $9,000 in NJ. The body is in pretty bad shape though. The inside was clean, but it needed the usual service (front axle, brakes, etc.) If you look around and take your time you can find what you're looking for, as long as it's reasonable.

    Steering Box on '93

    Yeah it's the box. All of the lines are dry as a bone. I'll upload some pictures when I get a chance, the 'Attach Files' feature isn't currently working. The box is definitely the source of my misfortune. This doesn't seem to be a common problem, what could the previous owner have done to...

    Steering Box on '93

    I've had some seepage out of my steering box for a few months now. It hasn't been anything major, just something to keep an eye on and make sure the fluid is topped off. The leak is getting worse and I want to get at it before it becomes a real problem. I called a trustworthy mechanic and he...

    35" tires on stock 80?

    I think you're having trouble finding information because you're trying to accomplish the impossible. I'm running 33's on stock suspension and that cuts it pretty close. I've never seen 35's on a stocker.
