Hey Guys,
I purchased a LOCK RIGHT 1630 for Land Cruiser 30 tooth spline a few years ago for my 77 FJ-40 and never got around to installing it before I sold the cruiser. It is brand new still in the box. I paid ~ $450 CDN for it, so I would like to get $350 CDN, OBO.
Let me know if you are...
This maybe a stupid question but I don't see this stated in your posts, however is your engine turning over or is your starter just spinning???
I ask becasue that happened to me about a year ago. Similar symtoms where it was starting fine then did not start once, then ok again, then not start...
Hey Kim,
sorry fo rth delay in responding, I don't get to look lurk around here as much as I would like to.
To answer you questions, I was not towing a trailer at the time. The trailer light converter I was referring to was a 5 to 4 wire converter. My truck is 24 volt all the way around...
Thanks! I will feel my wires and check my connections first as that will take a few minutes.
My issues all started one day when my slave went and I was waiting for a tow. IT was about -40 out so I had left the truck running for heat and hadmy 4 ways on. I heard a loud pop, whcih I would out...
Not to highjack here but I have a related question. In a previous post it was stated that green on the wire is bad ( I know it is Oxidation). So if I sea green on my ground wire from the block to the frame I should replace it?? I ask as I am having a very similar porblem with my truck, and I...
Hey Loius,
There is one part guy at Mendes that is useless. Everytime I call he wants my VIN and will not look up a part unless a give him one, even though I explain that my truck is imported from Japan and he will not find it in his system. Very, very frustrating to have to go through the...
Thanks guys for your help again!!! So looks like the rotors will be fine using the lugs pressed through to hold them. I guess Toyoto did not see the need to continue with the rotors with the additional holes for the 2 bolts to hold the hub assembly.
The funny thing is the guy at toyota...
Hello,
Hey guys it has been a while but I need your help again. My front brakes are completely done on my 88 BJ-74. I ordered some pads and disks from Toyota. The part number for the disks is 43512-60100.
The problem I have is it only has the holes for the lugs??? It is missing the other 2...
Really Wayne and DAvid?? YOU can drive the truck with out the slave??? I triedn to jam it into first to at least get me going so I could get home and it was not happening?? Granted I did not try to hard as I thought I may damage.
You same timing and practice?? BUt there must be a bit of a...
Hey Coldtaco,
Mine would at times be hard to push not very often once or twice ever couple of days. Then suddenly my slave went last week, of course when the slave went the pedal was very easy to push as the clutch would no longer disengage.
Anyway I would get this issue taken care of...
Sounds similar to the way my clutch was acting until last week when my clutch release cylinder gave out as I was on my way home from work :doh: . I also had a bit of a rattle when the clutch pedal was not depressed, that was coming from that area ecer since I have owned my BJ-74. The rattle is...
So I replaced the slave (or release cylinder as Toyota likes to call it) and the truck is back on the road. It was about $105 CDN including tax from Toyota, thanks to our clubs discount, so not too bad.
I also had to replace my batteries this week as well. I decided to go for the optima red...
Thanks Fromage... I will have to think about those tires. I would then have to get rims as will which would add to the cost.
I am now leaning towards the TRXus after Michaels comments. I wanted to stay with 10.5 width but from what I have been reading here I should have no problems with...
I beleive my clutch slave went today. Basically my clutch pedal goes to the floor with pretty well no resistance, and of course I can't get it into gear. Unfortunately this required a tow home ( I really hate having a landcruiser towed :censor: ).
Anyway I have a couple of questions:
- does...
Thanks guys for the info.
So it sounds like 35's may need regearing, although Greg seems fine with his 10.5 x 35's, whcih is exacltly what I am leaning towards. I really don't want to swap gears yet.
Now to find a tire 35" x 10.5" tire that will preform off road, and have ok road manners...
Hey Guys,
Now that the snow is here in Ottawa I am thinking of the Mud in the spring all ready. I am curisous how big of a tire people (height and width) are running with OME suspensiona and stock gears on a BJ-74 manual tranny?
I currently have 33x10.5 BFG AT's and well I am not happy...
