I second checking the wires. My Taco was running really poor and it turned out the plug wire on the #6 cylinder was arching to the head. Another few things to check are your TPS (throttle positioning sensor), IAC (Idle Air Control Valve) and since you're getting a MAF code, it would do you well...
Thanks for all the input guys. I'm in England now with my Cruiser. I tried calling Luke at 4x4 Labs as I've read a lot about his work on this forum. Wasn't able to get a hold of him though, and didn't return my call. There is another guy I did talk to though who was making some unique spindles...
Those guys are nuts to take something designed for pavement or graded roads out like that. Now these guys from Urban Escape Vehicles have got it figured out!

I love my 1HD-T, save mine is bolted to a manual tranny. I'm not a fan of Chevy's. The old moniker, "if it's not leaking then there's no oil in it" didn't come without reason. If I've learned one thing about owning Toyota's is that they're stinking reliable and last forever. I can't say the same...
Hmm... I'm going to be building a rear bumper with swing out when I go to the uk in a few months. I need to prep my Cruiser for Africa. Any chance you have dimensions or plans? I'd like to give building your bumper a go!
Ha ha, different guy, different thread. I maybe a Noob, but I've been combing these threads for a looooong time. May pick your brain later though for diesel questions if you don't mind.
Just found out from a South African guy that my Cruiser is only 24v for starting and converts over to 12v for everything else. That makes life much easier on me.
Maybe not in the USA, but my UK spec cruiser is a 24v. Lots of Africa spec ones are too. Nice thing is they come with dual batteries from the factory. :)
24 volt system
I'm really interested in these LED setups. I'd like to do an interior one, but would also like to do tail, reverse and marker lights as well. I've got a 95' 24v HDJ81. Anyone know if there will be issues using LED's on a 24v system?
What about the flickering that the OP is...
