I am interested in the smoky mountain 4” suspension but can’t confirm he’s still in business. Anyone here have experience with this suspension or with TPI? I have left message and email with no reply yet.
What are your thoughts on using something like this as a replacement. It’s a Toyota forklift 50A unit that’s internally regulated. Looks like it would fit. $130.
I haven’t spent much time on the 40 series side of this forum. I have had a 40 in the late 90’s and a couple of 80’s. In fact I still own a 97 LX450. I have wanted another 40 ever since mine burned up in a shop fire 20 years ago. I may have found one.
It’s a 74 that was dismantled many years ago...
Just placed an order for a set of front covers and a dash cover for the LX. At this point they can’t quote a lead time due to corona virus. Hopefully they will be worth the wait. I tried search and found slot of 100 series guys running these but not much for the 80. Anyone running these in their...
So I decided it was time to start building my rear bumper wings. This is going to be a kinda slow process and I’ll try to keep this thread updated as I make progress. Let me know what you guys think. This was the CAD version. Cardboard aided design.
Looking for a nice 1st gen 4wd yota in or near Ga. Closer to stock and complete would be best a little lift and some grips is ok too. No mud boggers or truggies. Would like something I can run errands in for a while and eventually daily drive (read trash runs til I can get everything right, then...
Have been chasing a p0401 for a while now. I recently tested the egr components per FSM. Everything passed but my code was still there. During the tune up process I discovered that my intake pipe was torn. Not sure if I did it removing it or if it was already split.
At this point I ordered the...
My purpose for this is to compare the lobes on my cams with pics of others. Mine look a little worn but that may be no cause for concern. What does mud think?
Getting ready to perform some much needed pm on my lx. Picked up an Aisin water pump from amazon for 25 bucks(damaged box item). One more available at this price for anyone interested. My experience with Aisin aftermarket is good. Exact part as oem with toyota or teq ground off. Also picked up...
I'll make this as techy as possible but mods feel free to move it as you see fit. Went to Durahmtown this weekend in Ga. Got through with out a lot of carnage but really need some protection.
I just sold my 95 fzj80 that I drove for two years, in hopes of buying a nice 40. Well I guess the cruiser gods had a different idea because on my way to deliver the 80 I ran across an LX 450 that I could not pass up.
Long story short the 80 always got 12 mpg. Only mod being 285 km2's. I ran...
I took the kids to a pool party today, and they love to ride in daddy's truck. I guess riding in moms 11 sequoia gets old. I have a 95 80 and it was high 90's today. First I let the cruiser run for a minute so the a/c could cool the cabin, then drove about 15 miles to fill up with petrol. I...
I paid Will a visit today and wow. Super nice guy, very reasonable and knowledgable. He really loves what he does, and I will be a customer from now on.
