    Gauge background illumination went out

    Hello all, so I was driving my FZJ80 around today and everything was fine. Noticed backing it into my driveway that the little LED indicators for my PIAA lights weren't on anymore when my headlights were on. No worries, I figured it was the fuse for the lights or something. It was day time so...

    Rig build, what am I forgetting?

    My '83 needs a lot of stuff, and I think I've got all the parts on order or on hand that I need. Wanted to check in and see if anyone has any additional maintenance suggestions while I've got it all apart or if I forgot anything (pretty likely). What I'm doing: -High steer -Knuckle upgrade...

    Gen 1 Pickup parts

    Hey guys, I picked up a bobbed 83 pickup and I was wondering if anyone has a line on any good OEM parts in our area (such as a Toyota graveyard, pick and pull, etc). It's in pretty rough shape, but it'll take some of the beatings off my 80 haha. It wouldn't fit through busywild. Also, does...

    Time to rebuild the birf?

    I'm having some steering issues in my '83 bobber (very erratic, loose, darty), so while checking my tie rod/knuckles/etc I noticed my birf is leaking. I'm not super familiar with birfs, but I'm guessing based on this photo that I'll need to rebuild it. I bought new wheel bearings so far to see...

    Power steering pump replacement walkthrough?

    I'm planning on replacing my PS pump, and was looking for a walkthrough on here but couldn't seem to find one. Does anyone have a link? I'm really just looking for a few answers that may save some time: -How much fluid will I need to top off the system completely? -Will I need a new pulley...

    Slee off road rear bumper visibility?

    I've been looking for a rear bumper/tire carrier combo with the tire mounting to the driver's side vs. the passenger side for better visibility. I was looking at 4x4 labs, but with their price plus the cost of powdercoating, I'd have basically paid what I would for Slee's bumper. Their bumper...

    Is it the starter?

    Hello all, I've been experiencing intermittent starting issues lately. I'll turn the key, the voltage looks good according to the gauge, all accessories work fine, but the engine won't turn over at all. I know that it isn't my battery, but for now what I've been doing when this happens is...

    Evans Saturday

    I'll be at Evans on Saturday with a buddy from work. Not trying to plan anything super formal here, if you want to show up feel free. We'll be there I'm guessing a little before noon, and stay until we break something probably. Maroon 80, black wheels, de-flared and lined.

    Hi everyone, I'm back

    I know I disappeared for quite awhile, but I'm back for now sort of. Update on the 80, all of my door woes are over and I finished de-flaring and bedlining the sides. I'm having some intermittent starting issues, the engine fails to turn over, every once in awhile... It isn't the battery...

    Anyone interested in factory 16" wheels?

    Got five of them, lug nuts included in case you don't have the right type anymore. They are dirty, but seem in decent condition. PM me an offer.

    Steel wheels- What fits?

    I just placed an order with Nat'l Tire and Wheel for five pro comp black steel wheels with a 6x5.5" bolt patter and 4.25" backspacing. They e-mailed me back, saying that they've had fitment issues with 80 series cruisers (it sounded like only the four wheel disc brake ones). They said the...

    New member in the Tacoma area

    Hello, I just recently bought an FZJ80 and wanted to make an appearance in this forum. I'm definitely interested in meeting up with other owners for trail rides, etc. and will try to be active in this forum as time allows. Due to my job, I'm fairly busy and can be gone for weeks or months at a...

    My "new" FZJ

    Hello, was originally looking for a 60 but I found a nice 80 and decided to pick it up. I'm not able to post images yet because of my post count, but will edit this thread later to include pics. It's maroon (not sure what Toyota calls it, don't kill me) has an ARB bull bar with the side steps...
