    Drained Battery and can't open door or hood

    I had same problem, battery completely dead and mechanical key would not unlock. My splash shields are long gone. It was easy to access the alternator on the passenger side. I hooked up a battery charger on the stud for main wire off the alternator and got the doors unlocked immediately.

    Oil mist issues with ARB Air Lockers in a 200 series

    @Taco2Cruiser Are you still happy with the purge valve setup? My front diff is pushing gear oil up the line. Thanks for posting this!

    ARB line weeping gear oil.

    I had an ARB installed in my front diff. I hooked the airline to the axle and routed it to where I will install the air compressor. I installed the fitting on the end of the airline, but have not installed it into the solenoid valve. There is a little bit of gear oil weeping out of the end of...

    Wholesale Automatics valvebody?

    Has anyone installed the Wholesale Automatics Nomad valvebody in their 200? Cruiser Brothers is the US distributor. Did it make a difference? Would you do it again?

    Cruiser Brothers 12.5 LRA Aux Tank Install in LX570

    Ditto - fretting over cutting the 2 body tabs is making mountains out of mole hills! They are completely useless on US spec vehicles. Their job is to hold a OEM subtank, which is not compatible with US emissions anyway (takes same spot as charcoal canister). Before it was pointed out on this...

    Error Code P2447 Air Injection Pump Error...

    I had a Hewitt kit when I bought my 200. I still had tons of problems with codes. I pulled the Hewitt and had a shop replace one of the pumps. (My bumper allowed easy access.). The independent Toyota specialist shop did say the system had the most complicated diagnostic routine they had seen...

    2014 Fuel Door Assembly

    I was pleasantly surprised that it was just a $6 part that was NOT 200 specific, but common on many Toyotas. The dealer had 2 in stock. It’s also easy to install, way easier than the on on the 80 series.

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    Short story- yes. I’ll try to get the thread updated.

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    Thanks for the offer! I actually have a spare. I have wanted to do the Tundra A arm conversion ever since I heard it was possible, long before I got my 200. It currently has spacers. This seems like a perfect “while I am in there opportunity” to do it, but the timing couldn’t be much worse...

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    Got it off this morning. The shaft snapped right where it threads into the lower base. I am no expert, but looks like a fatigue failure. @duggy There was fluid in the reservoir, it leaked all over as I pulled the shock. The hose connection between the reservoir and the shock body got broken...

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    Shaft snapped near base at bottom. It is completely surrounded by the coil. Axle is intact, the boot got chewed. The axle certainly wasn’t flopping around. I thought it was odd it happened a few days after alignment and tire rotation, but I can’t think of how that could cause the failure...

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    The :princess: not so much, but my teenager bent the steering and front axle of my 96 playing around on the mountain behind the house. :bang: We haven’t let him anywhere near the 200!

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    I am stunned, OME is supposedly designed for overloaded rigs seeing thousands of miles of dirt roads and the BP-51s were supposed to be beefier than their normal line. We haven’t had and collisions, jumped it or anything like that. I have had the alignment checked last week and it was in spec...

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    I owned the rig for 2 1/2 years and 40k miles. The previous owner installed not long before I bought it. Since I have owned it, it has been :princess: daily driver and (sadly) seen ZERO off-road abuse.

    BP-51 snapped - WTF!!!

    :princess:texted me while I was out of town and said the TLC was squealing. I tried getting clarification what she meant. The front brake pads were just barely starting to squeal, she hadn’t noticed that yet. (I have a new set going on next week.). The way she described it, seemed like...

    100 series mirror on 80? ALMOST but No!

    Thanks for the review and link. I have been leery of cheap non OEM mirrors. Good to hear from a user. Will order one.

    100 series mirror on 80? ALMOST but No!

    The catch is diameter and shape of the breakaway mechanism is different. Short of milling down the 80 base, I didn’t see a way to make it work. This is where I tapped out. Well now I know. 100 series mirror will ALMOST fit on an 80 base.
