    Post 60k Toyota Dealership Service

    You said you’re satisfied with the service and that you would prefer the dealer do the work on your daily driver. Yet you should really be questioning the work they did. I don’t get why you haven’t questioned the fact they did a coolant flush yet only charged you for 1 gallon of coolant. I...

    Post 60k Toyota Dealership Service

    Also the gasket 90430-12031 that they charged you $3.61 is just the oil drain plug gasket and should be less than a dollar. Really I think it should just be included with an oil change. The “engine performance restoration”, “ethanol treatment”, “oil system treatment”, “fuel/air induction...

    Post 60k Toyota Dealership Service

    How did they do a coolant exchange and only bill you for 1 gallon of super long life coolant? I'd actually go check that they actually greased the u joints. what is Coolant Conditioner? half they stuff they did sounds very gimmicky and some parts of it seem like they didn't do something right

    $80/liter transfer case oil

    I found this info on another thread a few months ago when I was putting together the parts list of what drain and fill plugs I needed to have magnets on all of the drain and fill ports for the diffs and transfer case. Also the list of the specific washers that are needed on all the ports...

    1997 fzj80 turns over and shuts off immediately. HELP!!

    was the battery disconnected? I'm somewhat doubting the ecu is having to relearn how to idle since i'm sure you have tried starting it many times by now. But what happens if you start it and give it just a little bit of gas just to keep the motor from stalling?

    Rear Screen Market

    Have you ever priced a new screen from the dealer??? When I bought my LX and I was looking at the service records I saw where Lexus quoted the previous owner something like $8,000 to replace one of the screens.

    Cool Article by Land Cruiser Engineers

    I read most of the articles and really like hearing about their testing methods. It seems like there is a standard they have to meet but they push things to want to know what fails and how it fails when it comes to designing things. As they said, people's lives are dependent on these cars. I...

    Is the 100 series really more reliable than the 80?

    It’s a tough world we live in when it’s full of bean counters and people who buy a car based on what features it has rather than how it’s built. I think 80s were built in a time when the engineers really didn’t care what the bean counters thought and truly built a car that needed to survive in a...

    Basic camping setup.

    I believe weather tech makes custom fitted sun shades for all of the windows. Might be a good add on to help for darkness/ minimize heat/ privacy.

    Fridge (and accessory) recommendations

    I’ve had two coworkers who both went the super cheap (<$300) fridge route. One of them gave me crap all the time about how much I spent on my ARB fridges. Both of their fridges have stopped working for no reason. It didn’t seem like any kind of mechanical failure but more like an electronic...

    Lubing Prop-shaft/driveline what type of grease?

    This has probably been beaten to death but I have had the mindset that if the surfaces are sliding past one another, like in the slip yoke section of the driveshaft, then you want a moly grease. Its been my understanding that you don't want a moly grease on surfaces that are rolling. Like the...

    Tuning shops…

    I'd look at Overland Tailor. John is on the forum and i believe still does the tuning in Birmingham. His website says he can do forced induction tuning on tundras so he must be able to do 200s also.

    Heritage LC or Bronco Raptor

    Like I said it’s all wording. I get what you’re saying on how it operates but this is still an Auto system not a full time system

    Heritage LC or Bronco Raptor

    This part is exactly what I just said. Not sure how it’s incorrect compared to what you just said. This is all a wording things. But I wouldn’t say a system that sends little to no power to the front wheels while steady state cruising is a full time 4wd system. Ford and Jeep don’t call it...

    Heritage LC or Bronco Raptor

    The wording and marketing on these Jeep 4wd systems is horrible because this 4wd isn’t really FULL-TIME. It’s more of Auto-4WD. It uses a clutch in the transfer case to send power to the front wheels. It does probably react quickly at sending power to the front wheels but heavy throttle and...

    Dual battery systems and winches ... what to do about fuses?

    I’d go with the same layout as redarc shows for their smart relay but with the added fuses on either end of the positive batteries like you’ve suggested before. But instead of the redarc relay use the Blue Sea ML-ACR 7622. It’s got a much better amp rating of 500 amps continuous and 1450 amps...

    Why did Toyota get rid of the 9.5" front diff for the 80 series?

    I’ve seen diagrams that show the non locker diffs are 2 pinion and the locked diffs have 4 pinions. But no one ever talks about that

    Accessories..throw em at me.

    @desertwampa All this info regarding accessories is on the forum many times over. Also every thread you have started in the last few months has also been discussed in the past and can be found by doing some searches on the forum or google that will already lead you to the forum. Wear out the...

    Thoughts on this new AMAZON battery 100AH deep cycle?

    I think for that price you can spend maybe $30 to $50 more and get a LiFePO4 battery. I'm sure if you hunt through amazon enough you can find one that is even closer in price. My aux battery on my 80 series is a group 31 Odyssey and its going on 7 years old. Thing is replacing it is going to...

    80-Series Climate Control Question...

    My guess is the blend door is not moving to allow air to flow through the heater core. Behind the dash there is the "box" that holds the heater core and all of the flaps to direct air. As you move the temp slider from cold to hot a motor turns a flap to let more air flow through the heater core...
