    Separate Trans cooler entirely?

    Not sure if this topic has been discussed before, but on my prado I bypassed the stock factory trans cooler (Radiator one) and it's run completely through it's own independent cooler up front. Do people do this on these trucks? Thoughts are: Will the trans run cooler or warmer? Should be...

    CV / Drive Flange play - Risky?

    Pretty certain my drive flange has a lot of play. I'll confirm by popping the cap off, but I rotate the CV by hand more than I'd like to, I get the R to D thunk, and there is also some sideways play as well. I've got some drive flanges ordered, and will most likely go with Napa's CV's. But how...

    Recently got a 2000 LX470, However it seems a bit sluggish so I've been investigating it. I have a diesel landcruiser and when the engine is cold I can spin the fan freely meaning the clutch isn't engaged. On the LX if I turn the fan it will want to turn the belt system too so is completely...

    Hi guys, I have had problems with the cruiser not being as powerful as it used to be, and at sometimes it would be very noticeable.
