hoping to start a thread where we can better see the differences in trims and their features.
also any information on options that can be added to trim levels.
anyone got good links to share, please do.
Been lurking and reading about auto 5-speed options. Is there really no option for a 60/62?
I currently have an H55 but Austin’s traffic is sucking the life out of driving it.
Just curious about any options available.
Hello from Texas!
My wife’s family has always had roots in Ruidoso and it’s been awhile since we’ve all been there.
We’ve been thinking about going back for a trip and I wanted to take the kids off-roading in the 4Runner there (same vehicle we’d make the trek to NM in.
I’m having trouble...
My 3fe has been throwing some pretty strong fuel smell through the vents when they’re set to pull air from the outside, such as when defrosting the windshield.
I always had a small hint of a fuel smell when the a/c was running and the vents were set to recirc. But since I’m in Texas and it’s...
Hello everyone,
I’m selling piñon firewood this season With a couple of buddies.
We’ve always enjoyed it and since it so hard to come by in Central Texas, we ordered an 18 wheeler load from New Mexico! Our pricing is also less than the only other seller out in West Austin.
We made a website...
the PO of my 62 did a knuckle re-build back in 2013 (the year before I got the vehicle).
I noticed a few weeks ago that the driver side knuckle was showing signs of leakage, so I did a rebuild on both sides.
Thinking that the time between these rebuilds was about 7 years (and about 40,000...
Hi guys,
I’ve hit a snag in my first major mechanical undertaking of redoing my knuckles.
I’ve gotten it reassembled and am measuring the knuckle pre-load and it’s coming up low...about 4lbs.
All shims were put back as taken apart. Since I was low, I added one shim to the bottom, and now I...
In my quest to clean up my undercarriage from surface rust, I’ve been successful in finishing the rear of the frame and the cross member that goes under the fuel tank.
As I begin making my way more forward underneath I’m struggling a bit to choose wisely what to refinish or not.
Part of me...
I’m starting to put my feelers out there on another car, which means I need to part with my 200. It’s a former lease turn in that I brought home from Dallas to Austin.
It had full new brakes/rotors around and tires a bit after 40k. Other than that, a new Optima battery, and maintenance it’s...
My former slow cold start chase a few years ago, has turned into now chasing a fix to a slow warm start
To try and solve it, I’ve read and searched through threads endlessly, taken to my local Cruiser Specialists (who’ve helped tremendously), and done everything short of doing the entire EFI...
I’m beginning to learn how to use a multimeter properly for diagnosing. So far I’ve been able to use it properly, however the latest diagnosing per the FSM states to “apply battery voltage” and I can not find a sensible explanation of how best to.
I’m assuming you don’t turn the ignition to ON...
In the Mecum auction this weekend in Houston there is an "original and rare 62 that comes with a 5-speed and a 60 front"....
Was there ever such a thing...?
Beautiful rig. I'm very curious about its configuration, and sourcing of parts.

Hi everyone,
My friend Scott Nelson is the survivor of the plane crash this past week in Lakeway. He’s currently in ICU and within time is expected to make a full recovery. His wife and 1 year old are by his side along with family & friends, so there are lots of good things happening from such...
I've searched online and throughout the forums, and haven't found an answer, so apologies if it's somewhere obvious.
I want to replace one of the 2 RES headphones, and was wondering how many total headphones can be used by the RES on a '14 LC.
I figured I might get 2 more, to have a total of...
So my ‘90 62 series began getting increasing vibrations while driving. Bad shuddering while braking. And some slack in the steering wheel.
The shop I took it to prescribed the following :
1. Repack wheel bearings
2. New pads and rotors (b/c they were worn)
3. New tie rod ends
4. Replace all...
So I’ve been to Hidden Falls twice. Once in a stock 100, and once in my 62 (3” lift with 33’s, no armor).
I stuck with the Park Roads and one other trail, I forget the name, that ran along a fence line, that was a 2, but super easy. You go down and then turn around and go right back up...
So most of the time in Texas, it's hot as sh!at and I've left the internal temps at either LO or around 68-70, even during the winter.
A few times I've noticed this winter, when I need as much as heat as possible, and I crank the blower speed to hi, barely any air is flowing out.
The rear...
hello peoples of the forum,
I’m looking to source new, if possible, 2 rocker panel trim pieces for my 62 series.
Mine are in decent shape, but I’m currently trying to source new parts for my long delayed, ever planning paint job.
Many thanks and Merry Christmas Eve to y’all.
