Sold!!!! Fellow mudders! I am finally selling my very well kept 1991 FJ80 Cruiser with 214K miles for $6,250.00. I have invested more than 15K into this rig in engine work, rebuilt transmission, brakes, knuckles, front-end, etc. It has a 3" OME lift and steering stabilizer, Custom interior...
For the past several months I have been dealing with a legitimate loss of power. 1991 FJ80 207K. I have performed all of the regular maintenance items on Jon Held's list and finally caved and brought it to an independent mechanic.
25 year Lexus/Toyota master tech (shop owner) and his head...
This is a simple step by step guide with a lot of pictures of how to replace your broken mirror and broken glass. I read on another thread that you needed to remove the door panel to access the mirror post. Not true. I am no authority but I just thought since I was an idiot maybe there are some...
Well another project got done.
For those who dont know me, I am trying to make up in cosmetic detailing and repair which I lack in mechanical repair acumen. Therefore, the following is my offering to balance the scales against all of the mechanical advice I have used from fellow mudders. Come...
Originally I used IdahoDoug's fuel sock thread to learn about this process but have since been unable to locate the thread again. After conferring with him I have decided to add my version of this fix from a slightly less mechanically inclined mudder's point of view.
IdahoDoug, I invite you...
I decided to take out the carpet and bedline the interior of the rig. This wasnt spur of the moment thinking, I have thought long and hard about what to do and how. The reason behind it is simple, I have dogs and kids that like to ride trails and camp. Since this is not my DD the lining project...
I am selling my seat covers form my LC after I had them recovered. There is actually one seat from each row that is in full reusable condition (Front PS, 2nd row DS, 3rd row DS and all the headrests).
I also have all of the other seat covers its just that they were cut in order to be used as...
I am removing the carpet from my 1991 FJ80. It is the hard to find dark brown and is in remarkable condition considering its almost 20 years old. The full set includes front, middle, rear, cargo, wheel wells and tail gate. There are two minor worn spots in the cargo. I am asking 450.00 for the...
I recently put a 3" lift and 33x12.50x15's on my rig and have noticed a need for regearing. I have found that on the highway I have to keep the pedal welded to the floor to maintain 70.
So I am asking your opinions. Which gearing ratio would be best?
4.88's or 5.29's?
Also, anything else...
I thought I would share my latest obsession with my rig: recovering the old seats. Since I bought her 2 years ago I have noticed a steady decline in comfort. I also realized that it would be much easier to clean and would be more resistant to staining if they were covered in something other than...
I just put on the OME 3" medium lift from ARB. I really like the way she looks lifted. The kit included the steering stabilizer and the correct bushings needed for the lift. These 80's were meant to look this way. I also had Firestone Destination 33x12.50x15 M/T's put on. Since the previous...
Okay fellow mudders. I know I am just asking for some sarcastic responses with that title but I am hoping amidst those I will also gain some knowledge about the non OEM spark plugs I just pulled from the rig. All new parts will be OEM from now on. As should be.
During the process of trying to...
I have searched the threads and havent found a definite answer to the issue I am having. So I thought I would reach out to the trusty mud members.
When I push or release the accelerator pedal I get a jerking or clanking sound. I was told by a stealership mechanic that it was the motor mounts...
I am looking for some feedback.
I am stripping the carpet out of the interior and considering having the floor spray-lined with an aftermarket product. I have read threads suggesting different applications and will choose one soon.
For those that have taken this approach or know someone...
I have seen some really great ideas since finding this fabulous site so I would like to ask the creative minds linked here what logo ideas would look good on a 1991 FJ80 seat recover. My idea is to have all the seats recovered but have just the front two headrests embroidered. This would allow...
