    Buyer Beware - Cody Warner - cwwfj60

    TL;DR - Bought a transmission from Cody and it ends up being sketchy. Politely ask to return it, won't take it back. Be careful if you buy anything from him. Here is the for sale thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/80-series-a343f-transmission-no-valve-bodies-texas.1202077/ My old...

    First time ever being stranded - Transmission issues

    Sorry in advance for the wall of text! 1996 Land Cruiser, 305k miles, recently had to drive through almost 5 feet of water to get the family to safety after tropical storm Imelda dropped a ton of rain on our area. And not just once, not even twice. It went through several miles of deep water...

    Slee vs OME reservoir shocks, or...?

    I'm in need of new shocks for my 97 and looking to spend a little more this time. No complaints about the OME nitrochargers that came with the Slee 4" lift kit, they have done well over the last 5 years and 75k miles. My truck is what I'd consider heavy, with me and a half a tank it's right...

    Need help getting home

    Me and the wife are in Europe and our rental car was broken into. The backpack that had the keys to my Cruiser are now gone. :( I have a spare key at home but not a fob. We don't get back until Friday and the Cruiser is parked in Dallas which is still another 5 hours from home. Even if...

    SOLD Bought these 9 months ago during the sale and finally got delivered about a week ago. :shaking: Planned on using them since my KM2s were 4 years old and just about out of tread when I ordered the Rockers. But between a cut on a sidewall that opened up, then the spare delaminating, and...

    Slee upper link bushing replacement

    After crushing a part of my exhaust off-road I had to cut it off right after the muffler. Didn't notice that the exhaust points almost right at the body side mount of the upper link and now I have no bushing. Slee only sells a complete set of bushings so I'm trying to find a single bushing to...

    So is my starter going bad?

    Every now and then I'll have to hold the key for up to 5 seconds or so before it tries to start. Other times it's only a second or two. And once every blue moon it doesn't want to start at all, like it did yesterday. After taking these videos I came inside, hopped on the wifi to upload them, and...

    Remember kiddos, when you only have 212 hp...

    Every horsepower counts. :eek: My truck has been running like crap lately and I knew that one of the cats was plugged up. The exhaust gasket in between the cats blew out and so I knew at least the rear one was done for. I took off the rear section of the exhaust and punched it out. Drove it to...

    Who here tows regularly? Brake question inside!

    I'm wanting to upgrade our sleeping arrangements when we go on our lengthy off roading trips so I'm looking in to something along the lines of this. The Land Yacht will be getting a GM 6.0L to take care of the pulling power issue but I didn't even think about the terrible brakes it has. Even...

    Let's play a game!

    It's called guess what the heck happened to my spindle and bearings (there is a joke in there somewhere). Tearing down my front axle to fix my leaky diff and when I pull the rotors off and wipe down the spindles I see these marks. It's on both spindles in the spots where the bearings ride...

    Help in Hot Springs

    I bent my drag link and I'm having no luck finding a place that is open on a Saturday that can possibly bend it back. Is there anyone in the area that has an OEM drag link I can buy or maybe can help me bend my stock one back straight?

    Anyone wheeling in Moab/Ouray next month?

    I'll be making a trip to Moab and the Ouray area, leaving on the 1st. We're hitting up the Grand Canyon first and should be in Moab some time around the 6th to the 8th. After we get our fill of Moab we'll be heading to Ouray. This is our first time to both places so if anyone wants to tag...

    No Southern Cruiser Crawl 2013 thread?

    It had been a while since I took a trip to a decent off road park so me and the family loaded up in the Land Cruiser and headed to make the last day of the Southern Cruiser Crawl at Superlift ORV Park in Hot Springs Arkansas. It easily beats the half a dozen parks I've been to here in Texas...

    Sunroof shade

    The Land Cruiser I just bought is missing the sunroof shade from one of the previous owners opening the sunroof without sliding the shade back first while going down the road. :doh: Can this be replaced on its own, and if it can where do I find one?
