    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    After a wet spring and a trip to Death Valley, there was some light surface rust on the bare metal and a cat skidplate scratch. Took the sliders off, Ospho'd, primed and painted, and reinstalled.

    low mileage '94 for sale (not mine), 3x locked

    Just saw this in my local Craigslist. I already have one so I will not be buying it! https://siskiyou.craigslist.org/cto/d/mount-shasta-1994-toyota-land-cruiser/7621231044.html

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Panamint Valley to Death Valley via Mengel Pass. I've wanted to take this route for a long time. Some challenging driving, but the 80 was a champ, slow and steady in low range. Didn't even need the lockers though the road was pretty bad. Really steep and bouldery on the way down. The route...

    What catalytic for a 95 Fzj?

    Yes they are in-line but I can't recall whether the O2 sensor on is in the front or back. Either way there should be one sensor before the cats and one after.

    What catalytic for a 95 Fzj?

    Mine were crumbling on the inside and very noisy, with horrible rattling sounds on every bump. I bought these and my local shop installed them. That plus new O2 sensors cleared my codes. Luckily. I did this in 2019!

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    My old 4xInnovations sliders had gaping openings and I was always worried that a human or a dog would slip and break a leg. I got some expanded metal, and with some cutting and welding and grinding, I solved the problem...one one side of the vehicle. I ran out of time to finish. It's also too...

    Post pics of your dog(s)with your 80!

    Here's the pup on the day we got her, 9 weeks old, last May. Need a newer picture...she's 80 lbs now!

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Fixed stuck passenger seat with new Gamiviti gears, topped off PS fluid (that stopped the noisy PS pump in cold weather!), and hit a palindrome

    Need to borrow a 1FZ-FE pulley holder

    I can send you the one I made (well I modified one made for a Subaru, but it worked quite well for me. I hope I never have to use it again. I'm about 250 miles north of you.

    Is your "D" (instrument panel ) light out?

    I love having no D light. One less bright light on the dash at night!

    Broken knuckle stud - getting set to rebuild knuckles

    Did the knuckle rebuild. Took two long afternoons plus a full day. Thanks to the FAQ and some youtube videos, including OTRAMM's, it wasn't too hard. Pays to do your homework first! Also helps to have a father-in-law who lives nearby and has every possible tool you could need!So much...

    Broken knuckle stud - getting set to rebuild knuckles

    That's cool. I will have to measure the broken stud to determine how much will of it is sticking out of the knuckle. I am away from the vehicle for a few days though. Just guessing by looking at the broken stud, looks like it probably sheared off without much left sticking out.

    Broken knuckle stud - getting set to rebuild knuckles

    Thanks for the responses. I'll keep it very slow until I get it fixed. Looks like it's possible to get the arm off to access the studs without taking apart the whole knuckle, right? I have been watching the videos of knuckle rebuilds, and they always remove the steering arm after the whole...

    Broken knuckle stud - getting set to rebuild knuckles

    Huh...might be worth waiting for. Don't do any hard wheeling, just slow going on jeep roads, but I have 33" tires. Will it be ok to drive around (on pavement) for a couple of weeks like this? The other nuts are on super tight. I could use red loctite instead of waiting for the nut huggers...

    Broken knuckle stud - getting set to rebuild knuckles

    I have a knuckle rebuild kit, and planning on doing this job next week. I was just under the truck wiping off grease from the knuckles and relocating my (clogged) diff breather. While wiping grease I found that the passenger side forward inner knuckle stud was sheared off! The nut was...

    Oil light on, full of oil

    My oil level light was intermittently coming on, though the dipstick was reading full. I pulled out the sensor. Couldn't ever do anything to make the circuit open, so there might be an inductive switch or something weird like that in there. I cleaned it (there were some little plastic washers...

    Brake pedal stiff this morning

    Wonder if I should just plug the holes, or if I should replace the valve with this part: Check Valve, Brake Booster, 90-97 FJ80 FZJ80 Brake Booster Check

    Brake pedal stiff this morning

    My check valve (edit: vacuum port, not sure if it's acutally the check valve) has two black plastic caps. Both were cracked to the point where they were about to fall off. I took them off, and plugged the holes with some rubber erasers, and the brakes work just fine. Weird how it only showed...

    Brake pedal stiff this morning

    What should I do for further diagnosis?

    Brake pedal stiff this morning

    Never had this problem before. Noticed when backing out of my driveway that I had to push extra hard on the pedal to control the speed in reverse. Pedal felt like it does when the engine is not running. Driving in to town, I had to press really hard on the pedal to get the car to stop. There...
