I really did not want to open another spongy brakes thread, but after reading so many threads and not finding an answer I am a bit out of options.
My 80 has had the low spongt brake pedal for years, and for some reason I figuered it was just an 80 thing, untill a drove a couple of other 80s that...
What would cause the trunion bearings from the knuckles to wear so they have a flat spot when the knuckles are in straight position?
It’s been a year and half since I’ve rebuilt my knuckles, and now I have to rebuild them again because the bearings are worn.
There’s no play on them , but with...
My friends 200 was suddenly stuck in low position, it wouldn’t raise and gave the check AHC system on the dashboard.
First thing I checked was the heigth sensor.
The adjustable rear left arm was a bit loose and could slide in the slot, so i tightend it again at were it visibly was before.

I cannot seem to get any more life out of all my 4 u-joints for any longer then 6 months/ 5000 miles.
I have tried all kinds of brands, even original U joints. All the same, after 5000 miles they have play on them again, starting to make noise. I use good grease, grease them every now and then...

Hi all.
I ran into a problem with my 1HDFT/A442F 80 series.
When coming home from a week out in the woods with cruiser I noticed the lockup clutch from the torque converter doesn’t seem to keep locked up that long as it did before in 4th gear. It feels like it releases sooner then it did...
Hi all,
I’d like to get your opinion on this.
A couple of months ago I got a new set of OME863 springs in the rear of my HDJ80.
Untill now they have been fine, they were the perfect height and not too hard.
Now I have towed my trailer (1500kg/3300lbs total on a 2 axle trailer) 3 times this...
Hi all,
My A442f tranny has always been greasy but not leaking where the extension housing bolts to the main tranny housing, but now after a 2 and a half hour driving @75 - 80 mph it has started leaking.
I noticed oil spray on the rear axle and then saw it had to be coming from the...
Does anyone have this manual in PDF or know it is online somewhere?
It is the manual for the everything emission control related on the 1HD-FT engine.
I need for the correct routing for everything vacuum related for SICS and BACS.
Thanks !
Hi all,
I have a HDJ80 1HDFT, with an a442f swap, so still running stock 3.73 gears (Europe spec), and running 35" tires.
As you know the auto is supposed to have 4.1 diffs, AND im running 35s, my gearing is way out.
Now I'm thinking either regearing to 4.56 , as this will bring it to "stock"...
I have this problem with my brakes for some days and I can’t figure out what causes it.
When I press the brakes, i have to push the pedal quite deeper then before, and when I press it hard my 80 gives a pull to the right, also noticable in the steering wheel, it is only for a second, then it...
I have what I believe that are 850J springs (they were on the car when I bought it, but they are OME and 17mm coil thickness) + 20mm spacers, and 863 in the rear, and my 80 is really stinkbug, the front sits 30mm (1.2") lower than the rear, I want to level it out a bit, its just too much and...
Has anyone heard of or seen a kit to regear the transfer case HIGH RANGE of the 80 series permanent 4wd transfer case? It is available for lots of other types of trucks like Nissan, LandRover, Suzuki etc, but I cannot find such gears for the 80 series. I do find low range gearing kits, but I...
Hi all,
I have been told by a reputable diesel tech that tunes alot of toyota diesel engines that there is some sort of device , i believe electrical, that limits the power output on the 1HD-FT engines in first and second gear.
Me being a DIY kind of guy want to disable or remove this myself...
I asked my diesel shop who is very reputable when it comes to toyota diesel tuning a quote to get my 1HD-FT injectors checked and rebuilt if necesarry.
He told me it is better to convert my 2-stage injectors to single-stage injectors, better low down performance he said.
I searched on Mud and...
Hi all,
I know 15 inch wheels do not fit the 80 series rear with full floater axle. I have test fitted 15x8 wheels with -25mm offset, and has 77mm/3 inch backspacing. They did not clear the caliper but it was close so i grinded the caliper lightly at the edge as seen on some members posts and...
I have a HDJ80 that i bought with what i believe is an OME 850/860 medium load lift on it.
My 80 has custom front and rear steel bumpers but the rear is really high and the front really low,and I havent even fitted my winch yet.
As said the rear is up high and I want to level it out a bit, but...
I have a 1995 1HD-FT with A442F transmission, the car has done 200,000km
My 80 has a rattle/ticking/grinding noise coming from the engine or gearbox that goes up and down with the RPM so it must be engine or torque converter or gearbox input shaft related I think.
It is most hearable inside the...
