    Ignition switch broken...help?!

    Does anyone know when Toyota beefed up that rod? I ask because I had this happen in my '99, fixed it with the beefier rod from Toyota, and now I just bought a 2004 and am hoping that the stronger rod was included in the 2004. Anyone have an ignition rod break on a 2004 or later?

    Looking for opinions on what to do with a somewhat rusting 1999

    I swear this is one of the last great places on the internet... you ask a question, and you get thoughtful responses instead of trolls and smart asses. I appreciate the perspectives on this, very helpful. I'll keep nursing it along for a bit longer and resist the temptation to spend stupid money...

    Looking for opinions on what to do with a somewhat rusting 1999

    Help me think this through if you would... Bought a 99 about 11 years ago because of what I learned on these boards. Have continued to use these boards to troubleshoot and maintain my Cruiser to the degree that I can (183,xxx miles today). Rust is creeping up onto the truck as we live close to...

    Winter tire recommendations?

    Cooper AT3s work for me. WAS better than the Revo 2s I had which sucked in the snow.

    Buying Abused '98 LC

    I've seen a bunch lately on craigslist in the area - one in Duxbury has been for sale for a while @ $8-9k and now there's one in Manchester going for $6k: 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser No connection to the seller but I like to see what mine might be worth from time to time. Good luck.

    Installed new Depo headlamps from group buy

    Having a slight issue with my DEPOs, wondering if anyone has any insight for troubleshooting. Right blinker light works for turn indicator and stays on for low beams as it should, but then shuts off for high beams... huh? Bulb seems to be working, what do I check next? Will post up what a...

    Heater core leak? Series 100 LC

    I got a quote of around $1000 a few months ago. $450 for the part and the rest in labor. Simple stupid part that I've seen on Rock Auto for less than $150... I had mine flushed once and that resolved it but the tech said it was only a 'band-aid' and they were right.

    Heater Issue

    Have the same and there are some threads on here: Search Results for Query: heater core | IH8MUD Forum[node]=26 Some have had luck topping off coolant but I got temporary relief when I had my heater core flushed. Has gone weak on me again and I might need to replace. I called the dealership...

    Got me a flat...

    Just did a 5-tire rotation on my 1-year-old Cooper AT3s and got a flat a week later. Piece of metal sliced through the top and the guys at Town Fair cannot patch it (probably a whole other thread for that). I have an unused Revo 2 AT tire from my first round of tires with zero miles on it in the...

    No heat!

    Heater core has been my issue though my symptoms are a little different in that I get heat in the rear. Heater core is cheap, replacement looks like something not so cheap. Thankfully it's been warm so far...

    Busted ignition - ignition cylinder rod replacement

    This is a club I really didn't want to join.... argh. Busted at my wife's work, so it's sitting in the parking lot. Will need to squeeze this repair in tomorrow afternoon if that is possible. HUGE thanks for all the insight on this board. Unfathomable that a stout truck can have such an achilles...

    Baffling, random dead battery

    Dealing with the same issue right now. Have a Sears Diehard Plat and there are random times when it just goes flat out dead. Bought a Noco jumper so my wife doesn't get stranded. Have already replaced the battery once under warranty. Oddest thing... Will be checking my + cable tonight and also...

    Greater Boston area owners thread

    Question for the group - what are you guys running for tires? I bought AT Revo 2s when I got the truck in 2010 and I haven't loved them in the snow like I thought I would. It's my wife's DD and we do few highway miles on it, but it will be our family ski vehicle so I want a tire that is good for...

    Front Heater Not Blowing Hot Air

    Had a very similar issue this year and the fix was having the heater core flushed. This might be a simple DIY job but without time or a garage to try it, I paid to have it done. If you need a new heater core prepare for the 4-6 hour labor quote and the part itself.

    Greater Boston area owners thread

    We have our 99 Cruiser as my wife's DD here in Marblehead. Would be interested in some low-key trail rides that are kid friendly in the spring. As much as I'd like to be adding some long-distance toys, buying a fixer-upper house sucks up most of the money so it's a stock truck. Haven't been...

    sunroof rattle

    I found some black plastic rails that clip along the perimeter of the glass that have been rattling. Have not been driving it daily (wife does) enough to fix it but that's what I've discovered.

    Replacement Keys 1999 Land Cruiser

    I did this for my '99 as well. Someplace in MA was selling the cases for $10. Had the local ACE cut the keys and two new Cruiser keys for less than $40.

    My concerns with a LC...

    Here's how I rationalize the MPGs and the shock at the pump: The sticker on our '99 LC was something like $55k, we got it after 105k for $12.5k. There's an insane amount of value in the truck for what we paid. At the pump, we have to give a little back... Compare the low initial cost and...

    Anemic heater

    So, my heat kicked back on this weekend now that winter is 3/4 over (even though it never really started). This could be completely unconnected to the issue but I jiggled the heater relay in the fusebox in the engine compartment and a few minutes later I had heat coming from the front vents...
