So the front of my truck has developed a very small clunk over bumps and I figured since I'm lifted and the original links had 325k miles I'd start there. While the Trail Tailor links look great I do not have $145 in the budget for them. So Google image searching I went. After a little while I...
This coolant pipe has a slow leak and I'm trying to find if it has a replaceable O-ring or if I need the housing. I tried looking on the Toyota website parts section for my truck but couldn't find it in the engine/cooling system section. This is behind the t-stat housing assembly just under and...
So at the end of December I went to my local tire shop to get some new tires, they had a promo on Cooper tires, buy 3 get one free and a free alignment. I decided to try the Discoverer AT3 XLT's. I wanted 295/75/16's but they were not in stock anywhere close and wouldn't arrive in time for a...
3 good condition Rhino Rack HD cross bars. All 3 are 71" length. $275 OBO for all 3, I would also consider window tinting on my 100 series as trade as well.
Just put some 860s on the back of my truck so I have a pair of stock 100 series Land Cruiser springs to get rid of. I'll be honest they felt a little soft, my truck has 320k miles but if you are trying to delete your AHC on the cheap or do a 4 runner lift these will probably do the job. If you...
I want to replace the surround for my subwoofer but I don’t know what size kit to get. I see people talking about the twin 4” or single 6” subs. Mine measured 5.75”. Is this what people are calling the 6” one? I attached a picture of my sun with the tape measure on it. I prefer to order the...
I saw a couple threads about people trying to adjust their hood but no one had any real success. Yesterday I finally figured out why the hood latches don't want to move for adjustment. The main issue is the small support in the center that goes from the latch down to the core support 1- has to...
While trying to figure out why I only have front speakers, which I was able to fix, I came across this unused connector. One of the PO’s, probably in the 2015ish timeframe, had an Alpine deck installed. Whoever did it was smart enough to get the adapter harness kit so none of the stock wires...
Does anyone know if the rear shocks from a 17 tundra will work on the back of a 100 series? I found some low mileage TRD Bilsteins close by at a really good price and my rear shocks have almost 320k on them. I tried to google it but all that came up was discussions about putting tundra front...
My rear springs are too soft to handle the gear taken on family trips so I’m considering OME medium springs for the back. Currently the rear height is 19.75” from hub center to fender opening with only just over 1/4 tank of gas and only one half of the 3rd row in the truck. If someone could...
After a major reduction in cabin noise and vibrations after removing my side steps I decided to see what happens if I took off the frame mounted vibration damper. The answer is not much. I couldn’t really tell a difference with it off so it looks like the side steps were the source of my...
Looking for a little more rear load capacity and I saw the stock 200 rear spring specs are pretty close to OME 865's but I don't know if the top/bottom of the spring matches the 100 series seats on the axle and body. Sorry if this has been asked before but after a few google searches and...
While replacing a burnt out taillight bulb on the right side I saw this unused 6 pin connector and small hose in the 1/4 panel just under the body connector for the taillight. Does anyone know what they are for? Any chance this is to add a 7 pin trailer connector?
Coming home from an event this evening I noticed the engine temp got to almost 3/4 while on the highway at about 70 MPH. I turned the heater on high and slowed down by about 5 mph and the temp dropped to half. The previous owner did a timing belt, water pump and radiator not too long ago but...
I got my 100 series a week ago today and have already hit my shin on the hitch once because of how far past the rear bumper it sticks out. Without a steel rear bumper is there a better hitch than what appears to be the Toyota bolt on one that sticks out 4" past the bumper? I tried doing a...
I just got a 2001 Land Cruiser last night, higher miles, 316K but it has pretty much only seen the dealer for repairs its whole life, including plugs, coils, alternator, injector cleaning and power steering flush less than 9K miles ago and regular trans and diff services about every 50K. I was...
I'm going to look at an 80 this weekend that the seller says the engine was redone at Ledesma recently, hone, rings and head gasket. Just wanted to know if anyone has any experience with the shop.
I'm looking to buy a 80 series in Oxnard, CA but the seller says it has a slight miss so I am trying to find a shop the seller to take it in for a diag/repair before I drive almost 2 hours to look at it. I'm looking for suggestions for a shop that knows these trucks and the common areas that...
Long shot but here goes nothing. Hoping someone out there looking for reliable sedan that gets good fuel mileage and makes 333hp in trade for their 1993 or newer 80 series. My Genesis has about 143K miles on it, 3.8L direct injected V6 rated at 333HP. It has a lot of options including power and...
