    91 Cruise Control Code 12

    Same issue, no blinking above 25 mph. Removed and cleaned the magnetic pickup but still no go. Reluctantly ordered 88261-60010, not the cheapest part, and now I have CC. Worth every penny. :)

    Not sure if this trans is available but he said it worked fine and only wants $40 for it. Located in Phx. Cheap left over parts from 91 toyota landcruiser project

    what is the purpose of a snorkel?

    You laugh but in the last week I have had two chicks who normally would not give me the time of day ask me what is was for. I told them it was a camera mount ;)

    I have no constructive answer for you but your question did reminded me of this video. Fording - YouTube

    3FE engine noise

    I had the high idle problem on my 3fe, it would come and go and took a while to figure out. Turns out it was my cruise control cable, it was very tight and if I bumped the cable it would move the throttle just enough to hold the idle up at 1200. Eventually figured it out and added some slack...

    What is your 80 getting for Christmas?

    5.29's to help the 3fe, Powertrax No-Slip in the rear and a knuckle rebuild, MESSY!

    3FE Owners Check-In

    1991 3fe with 183K, no leaks and solid, a soccer mom driver from LA for most of its life. No action shots yet, still under construction after the purchase. Yes the 3fe is slow but I find it works fine with lowered expectations still, 5.29s are on the way.

    Spare tire spindle mount, a different take

    Lots of reasons, access to put gear on the roof rack (to be added shortly), a mounting point for the highlift and for the rotopax and for me and my lawn chair when I want a better view. Still deciding in roof rack type and length altough, I like the folding ATV ramp idea, heavy duty yet...

    Spare tire spindle mount, a different take

    The rear is about 99% finished, just some final details and to finish the high lift mount, the hitch mounts have worked great. Next up: Sliders Roof Rack and RTT Winch integrated into factory bumper 5.29's (it really needs them now)

    Factory rear bumper - What am I missing?

    You could probably get away without the brackets, they would bolt to where the antenna is. You can do this as it appears the slot bracket is still attached to the top of the frame just to the left and right of the aluminum step. There is a bolt that is part of the plastic corner bumber that...

    Spare tire spindle mount, a different take

    My custom latch. I beveled the pin so that it auto latches when closing the tire mount. Also, the mount rests on the based of the latch mechanism so that the weight of the tire and mount will be supported when on rough roads etc. Altough the welding is crap, the latch very securly holds the tire...

    Spare tire spindle mount, a different take

    Rwhat, there is some flex but it is the hitch mount and not the spindle. The spindle was welded the sleaved with some .120 wall tube and welded again. I will be adding some gussets to the spindle before everything is done. For shear simplicity the hitch mounts has been great. 93yotasr5, I...

    Spare tire spindle mount, a different take

    Some progress now that the heat is starting to abate, decided to continue with the other side using the other half of the receiver hitch. First spindle mounted. I could have done a better job getting it vertical. However, since the spindle mount is only bolted on I was able to shim it...

    15" OEM wheels, problems with larger tires ?

    35 12.50 x 15 BFG KM2 Not on yet, I have only purchased one so that I can build my spare tire carrier. I hope to have the other four purchased and mounted sometime in October.

    Huge gain in MPG is the EGR and TB cleanout the cause?

    Would that be the 92 or the 94?

    Spare tire spindle mount, a different take

    With no metal handy today I decided to start my spare tire mount based on some other members threads. However I first decided to remove the hitch as I have no intention of pulling a trailer of any significant weight behind the 91 3fe. While pulling it I begin to notice that each end had the...
