    May Mini Run @ RauscH

    Yesterday's route. We covered a bit of ground, but since it was just 3 of us in 2 rigs, we did a lot of scouting and walking to get better acquainted with the NE property. We met at 9am and the park was almost empty. Odd for such a beautiful day. All the cool kids have trailers. After...

    Method Race Wheels Beadlocks Issue

    Method Race Wheels MR105 Wheel Matte Black 17x8.5 6x5.5 (6x139.7) 0mm Offset with Beadlocks I've had these on my truck for a few years now and they have seen some solid use. Pre-Covid I took a hard hit on the rock ring and noticed it snapped off a bolt head. I ignored it for a week or so and...

    November Wheeling

    Seeing who is interested in wheeling in November at Rausch likely on the 13th? I've missed the last 2 runs with repairs and upgrades and want to test things out. Plus I owe a guy up north some brake cleaner and a couple of dollars, so I can maybe kill two birds with one stone if I bump into him...

    Front Locker Harness Pins

    97 Land Cruiser ... So sometime in early 2020, before everything went crazy, I managed to rip the entire sub harness off the front locker and all the way up to where it connects near the fender and firewall. I took it to Toyota expecting them to make a patch harness, but in their infinite...

    Wheeling again in May?

    So rumor has it that my personal trail guide and spirit animal @VBRoamer has his rig back and is looking for dirt therapy. Putting out a feeler to see if anyone is down for trails either the 22nd or 29th? The weather is great this time of year people, don't disappoint your trucks by not getting...

    Real Time Valve Seal Help

    Looking for some real time help if anyone is around. The machine shop doing the head took the old valve seals off and forgot they were different in terms of intake and exhaust and forgot to note which one was which. They came in the "head gasket kit" so they weren't in individual bags with part...

    Rear Heater Lines Replacement

    So I know many have bypassed and abandoned the rear heater lines, but I decided to replace them in my 97 LX450 in an effort to keep things as stock as possible during it's refurb. I've read several threads referencing that the trans may need to be dropped to swap out both sets of lines. My...

    Hive mind HELP on stripped screw

    Well, I suppose it was bound to happen ... and it did. Went to remove the screws for the oil pump cover to replace the gasket. Six of them were stubborn, but #7 just slipped and stripped and now I'm in a jam. I've always used my small 1/4" impact and a DeWalt #3 impact bit. Looking or any and...

    12/21 Wheeling ... Anyone interested?

    Figured I would start the monthly thread to see if anyone is interested in getting out in December? Open to either Rausch or AOAA. I met another local Cruiser enthusiast this week and am hoping he can come along for his first time on the trails. Might be the last chance to get out before snow...

    Getting into replacing my alternator and lowering the radiator back to factory spec since doing the 1" body lift. All going fairly smoothly until I tried to disconnect the alternator clip to the wiring harness and the tab seems to be broken off. Anyone know the best removal strategy and is there...

    Broken Front Sway Bar Mount

    So I noticed some odd sounds last time I was out wheeling (5/11), but I was unable to isolate what it was or where it was coming from exactly. It was the first time out since doing the head gasket so I was much more focused on temps and no leaks. Anyway, after a quick drive on the highway today...

    Pin-7 Mod Help

    I've watched the YouTube video, read a few threads and followed the Slee directions and installed the CDL switch in the dash. I also got into the kick panel and and located the the proper wire for the Pin-7 Mod. That is where I found a hitch ... the black wire with the red stripe (Pin-6) was...

    Just another blown Head Gasket

    Thought I had dodged this last year when the cammo truck was showing signs of being hot on occasion. The PO had definitely put Bars Stop Leak in the system before I purchased it. Cleaned that out as best I could and then ran straight water for a while, then did Blue Devil sealer and all was well...

    Andriod Maps App

    So I swapped phones this past year and I'm trying to download Maplets again. Not supported in play store and when I go through Amazon it just tells me I've already purchased it and doesn't offer to purchase again. Anyone know how to get this app now for Andriod?

    Water pump symptoms?

    So the 97 Cruiser is finally back from the suspension shop and I have been putting miles on it. Went to use the heat for the first time in a while and got nothing. Was running the ScanGauge while driving and seeing temps fluctuate a lot more than normal. Truck is usually 186*-195*F all day with...

    80s with 35's - 37's suspension question

    I finally got what I thought was all the parts needed for my 3.5:F - 3"R Dobinson's install and 37s, but now having an issue that I need some direction on. The steering arm (I think that's the proper name) is hitting the radius arms on both sides. Can anyone offer a solution? It's severely...

    Help with wheel wobble

    So after recently completing my knuckle rebuild, then going back a few days later and resetting the pre-load to 30 ft-lbs I'm having an issue with what feels like an unbalanced tire at speed. It usually happens above 65mph and will occasionally smooth out close to 75mph. It seems to be worse...

    PO306 Code

    Trying to finish up the baselining on the cruiser and thought I was just about done, but now I have a PO306 code. Truck is running rough at idle, but seems to be fine at rpm above 2k. It doesn't stall, but seems close. Also seems worse when the truck is started cold vs warm restarts. This...
