    Have 94 FSM, need info from 93

    My rig is a 93. I purchased a 94 FSM (from Cdan) because the 93 manual does not contain a section in it for diff locks. Now I've ran into a problem where the FSM for 94 only has R134 AC info in it while my 93 is R12. No matter which year FSM I purchased, it would be lacking a...

    Car Cover?

    Can anyone recommend a car cover for the 80 series cruiser? Often times my cruiser has to be parked outside for days at a time. Just want to protect the vehicle from Arizona's heat and sun rays.

    Shopping for a Tundra?

    We are thinking about trading in the wife's 2000 4runner for a Tundra. We also have a 93 LandCruiser and a couple of heeps. All have been very reliable although the Cruiser needed a new head gasket at 117k miles. The last thing I want is to be dealing with is warranty issues on a new...

    Screwdrivers

    Can anyone recommend a quality brand of screwdriver? I have a drawer full of crappy screwdrivers with chewed up tips and beat up handles. Need something that will last. Also a comfortable, firm grip that you can get some torque behind is just as important. --Lars

    Birf repack question

    In this photo.... http://www.birfield.com/~morgan//tech/axle/092599/ins_wiper_seals-1.jpg The rubber black seal has a dimple around it's length on one side. Does the dimple face out to the felt or in to the metal ring? With my luck, Im sure I put mine on wrong.
