Hey Guys,
Bit of a fishing expedition here. I currently have a 1995 landcruiser, built decently (see sig), and am toying with upgrading to the 100 series. I dont do heavy wheeling or rock crawling, more expedition/hunting type stuff. My 95 is a beast, but on the road it just aint that...
Hey Folks,
developed a new issue. Under heavy acceleration, the engine cuts out at around 2900-3000 rpms and above unless I reduce throttle. If I reduce throttle and continue accelerating, runs fine, get back in it, starts cutting out. By cuts out, I dont mean it stops altogether, it acts...
decided I will be replacing my ome shocks with the same. Now I see there is an ome nitro "sport shock, and according to man-e-fre's web site, it replaces the earlier models that according to slee's site are offered in "soft or firm" models.
Which should I buy here, if I had to choose from...
Hey Folks,
I have 100K+ miles on my OME shocks. Just wondering about the life expectancy of these shocks? My experience with other shocks tells me they need to be replaced.. What are your thoughts???

which of the first two tread patterns would be best for south east MUD: http://www.treadwright.com/shopnow/entity/tabid/60/entityname/category/categoryid/16/sename/28575r16/default.aspx ? Not looking for a debate on retreads, just tread patterns for mud...
Mine look like crap, several years of salt in UT didnt help. I cleaned them with 409 and a pressure washer, looked better, but the "rough" inside of the spokes still has black spots. I researched acid washing, but that apparently is a bad idea as the acid will continue to eat at the wheels...
Need new tires, going with nitto tera grapplers again and this is the best deal I can find. Does anyone have any experience with this merchant?

I've been fighting this issue for sometime now, and need toget it fixed before making a cross country trip. My issue is when the ambient outside temp gets warm, above 70F or so, my idle speed jumps up dramatically (1500-2000 RPMs). In the winter, I do not see this behavior.
I did a search...
I'm troubleshooting the wonderful 401 code. Are all the vacuum hoses for the "EGR and related junk" 3.5mm in size? Any idea how much of this hose would be needed to replace all the EGR related vacuum lines? Last one, is this the correct type of hose to use...

DISREGARD (called slee and got my ?'s answered) real time question on winches
Getting the cruiser fixed, MAF is sold out of the Superwinch X9. What is a comparable winch? Warn XD 9000? I am no winch expert, would this be a decent winch?
thanks,

I was leaving the airport thursday morning after a long, early flight back from Boston, happy to be in my cruiser headed to the house. I was thinking about some things I still needed to do to get it "the way i want it". I was driving to the airport exit booths through the parking lot when out...
Finally got some time for more PM today. Replaced the PHH ("PESKY" is an understatement for that dang heater hose, if I never have to do that again, it will be too soon). Also replaced the ringed fan with the 4runner fan like CDan and ToolRUs figured out...
Hey Guys,
Seeing a code 420 (bad CAT). Getting this fixed on Monday and need some advice. I purchased the 95 LC 3 years ago. The PO had replaced the dual inline CATs with a single CAT (so some homemade sliders would fit I assume).
Some History: About 6 months after I bought the LC, CEL...
I hate to ask such a lame question, but I need to get some fog lights before the snow gets thick. I've looked at PIAA ($$$$), KC Slim lights, and Hellas. Anyone have opinions or recommendations on these, or any others?
thanks,

Hey Guys,
Anyone know what the stock transmission gear ratios are for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and OD on a A343F tranny? I know it has a 4.11 (or 4.10) rearend, and assume 3rd is straight thru (4.10), but just guessing. Is that correct?
thx,

I saw a post from a while back where some guys rigged a drill pump with some hose to make easy change of diff fluids.
Where do you find such a critter? Auto parts stores??? Hardware store??
Also, I changed plugs, wires, distr cap, rotor, pcv & grommet yesterday. Ever since stripping out...
