    Newb needing new tires

    I just put on a 2" OME lift and plan to get 35s very soon. With stock rims on my 97, will I need any backspacing? Sorry to jump in on your thread, but it seemed like the right place to ask :)

    Engine noise... Suggestions?

    Actually, I forgot to put that in my original diagnostics as well. I did remove the main fan and alt. belts for testing. The noise was still there. I did not remove the AC belt, but I don't believe the noise was coming from the compressor.

    Engine noise... Suggestions?

    Good suggestion on the video. I might give that a try. I did use a poor man's stethoscope (wooden handle against the engine and the other to your ear) to narrow down that the sound is coming from the front of the engine. Still hard to tell if it is higher or lower part of the front. I am...

    Engine noise... Suggestions?

    I have a 97 FJ80 with 194,900 miles on the clock. A few days ago I started to notice a knocking noise from under the hood. I have had a couple friends and father in law listen to it for an opinion on what might be the cause, but would like to get the collective opinions of the guys who have...

    Clear Corner Replacement project

    Sorry guys... that is one of the good parts about living in the bluegrass state. The trade off is the unbearable humidity during the summer.:mad:

    Clear Corner Replacement project

    Those are on the list Grumpy. I am trying to keep my mods to a slow bleed so my wallet doesn't start to hemorrhage. Wish me luck. I am going to need it.

    Clear Corner Replacement project

    Replaced the corner and turn lamps with clear last night. My buddy "Swanny" and I did them both in under an hour and that included some picture taking and discussion along the way. We purchased the DEPO lights from this ebay site. 91-97 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FJ80 CLEAR CORNER+BUMPER LAMP |...

    For those who have removed OEM running boards

    I bought myself a set of metric offset wrenches and used the 13mm offset to remove that back bolt. It gives you just enough room to turn the wrench.

    Question on OEM running boards

    I have a set off my 97 80 that I want to get out of my garage. I'm in Kentucky if you want to come get them.

    Bad water pump

    Well, I did use OEM parts. Replaced the water pump and went ahead and replaced the thermostat while I was in there. Had the help of a friend and it went pretty smooth. Down on Saturday, back on the road Wed night.

    Bad water pump

    Good info and advice as always guys. Thanks! I have 189,000 on the clock now. I have already replaced the belts, but not the upper heater hoses. I will try to include some more maintenance with the water pump as budget and time will allow.

    Bad water pump

    I had heard a little noise over the last few days that sounded like a pulley bearing of some kind going bad. On Saturday (luckily) as I pulled in my street a loud noise started and by the time I pulled in my driveway (a short distance) there was a little smoke as well. I popped the hood and...

    How much for a 1FZ Engine?

    Thanks for the responses everyone. I have been in the woods for the last few days and still no deer. Gonna head back out tomorrow for a couple more days. After Thanksgiving I hope to go look this cruiser over in person and find out if the engine is too far gone to rebuild or not. I am still...

    How much for a 1FZ Engine?

    I guess this is really a two part question and a little premature since I don't have a ton of info. But............. I know of a guy who has a 97 Aniv. Edition Cruiser that the engine is blown. I haven't seen it but the body and everything else is supposed to be in decent to good condition...

    Almost messed my pants

    Snake, I have been envious of pretty much everything on your rig since seeing it on this site. Yes, I have seen the write up on your horns and even thought about them a few times while driving by some unsuspecting pedestrian. :D

    Whats a decent air compressor to work for 80s?

    Here is a thread about a pretty cool looking option. Think they said it can do some small wrenching with it as well. https://forum.ih8mud.com/camping-outdoor-gear/166969-puma-12v-compressor.html

    Almost messed my pants

    So my remote hasn't locked and unlocked the doors since I bought my LC early this year. Today I was sitting on the tailgate watching my son practice riding his bike without training wheels and I thought I might as well investigate the remote issue. Opened it up and tested the battery and it...
