A few weeks ago my driver side window started to get some play in it. Then a week later when I rolled it down fully, it would only back up ~1/4 in. Took a bit of messing with to get it back in line and rolled up. So, I broke into the door to find the culprit.
After removing the motor/linkage...
First off…. I had no idea where to put this. This seemed like the most relevant place.
So when I bought my 96 LX, the previous owner had stripped the carpet and padding due to (unbeknownst to him) a drain plug having fallen out and mud/water getting slung up under it. He didn’t do too great of...

Hey all!
As the title says, my engine hits higher than usual rpm’s on start. Doesn’t matter if it’s cold or not. On average it peaks around 2k-2200 for about one to two seconds then falls back down to the 600/800 range. My air intake hose (from MAF housing to throttle body) has a huge crack…...
Has anyone else had issues with theirs? When I make a left turn signal cruise control shuts off and my brights only work when the pst is pulled back (won’t just stay on independent of my hand). And insight? Thanks!
I’ve been experiencing some pretty rough vibration starting at 25-30 and around 50 it calms down a bit. I notice the extra vibration (I have maxxis bighorns on it) is only when accelerating. Coasting I just feel the alignment/off balance wheel/big knobby tire shake. The rear I have aligned how I...
I’m having a helluva time tracking some fenders down for my rig. Really only in need of the PS, but all the ones if found being parted out either have damage to it or have already been picked. Anyone have any leads?
So my lx450 has been sitting for somewhere around 6/8ish months. The last issue I had with it was the PHH bursting. Ended up replacing it and driving it for about a week before deciding to park it till I could figure out what’s causing a noticeable steering wheel shake from 20-45mph (which if...
I’ve never dealt with a knocking engine previously. It seems too quiet but I’d rather be totally off the mark than ignore it and having to shell out cash for a new engine. I haven’t driven it in several months so this is fairly new.
Hope the link works out. Probably dumb to request, but let...
I swear to god it’s like one of those crying Virgin Mary statues. I’ve replaced the PHH and the coolant line that runs from the underside of the TB to the side of the block. The coolant starts to appear on the side? Of the manifold. There don’t seem to be any coolant lines above that area sans...
Hey all, decided it was time to knock this out… mainly due to this:
Kit from cruiser tech is on the way, utilizing the 8x. I was wondering if while in there, there was anything to keep an eye out for? I went ahead and got the koyo(?) wheel bearings as well… cause why the hell not?!? Also I’m...
but time for a new driveshaft? Its making some wonky noises and my rig has suddenly started vibrating when accelerating. No rumble in neutral or idle. I'm hoping its just this.
my rig: 96 lx450, 181k,
I bought my 96 lx a little under a year ago. I’ve noticed over that time the windows have loosened up (rattle when not fully up, sliding out of the track about 1/8th in.). Wondering if anyone has restore these; replacing clips/brackets, updating mechanics, replacing...
My cruiser before i purchased it had some front end damage, thus needing a front ps fender. I'm also looking for tail light housings and a passenger side headlight assembly. Anyone has some to get rid of send me a pm.
so i'm fixing up my 60, and it has some front end damage. SO if anyone has a passenger front quarter panel AND/OR both tail light housings, let me know your prices for parting with your precious parts. (btw i'm in arkansas, so i'll set up the shipping and what not)
so i'm moving back into fayetteville from farmington, and i'm in the process of desmoging my 83 fj 60. Anyone nearby have the knowledge to help me out with some of the vacuum s***? i'll provide the beers.:beer::beer::beer:
I'm living in fayetteville, trying to desmog my fj60. If anyone in this region has experience in the vacuum s***, i'd love a hand. Come over, drink some beer, work on a classic? any takers?
i've had my 60 for about 6-8mo. For the longest time i couldn't get it fired up, then realized that priming the carb was the only way to get it cranked over. Finally the other day whilst thinking greatly on my dillmia, i decided that instead of having to go for another yota carb, maybe i could...
So i recently purchased an 83 fj60....non-running. The guy i bought it from said that the secondary diaphragm was shot and pumped gas out. I can get it started by priming the double barrel, but idling kills it, as well as lower rpm's in general. Could i be looking at a problem somewhere else by...
