    Newbie 92 LC 80 crawler info

    Yup! That's my old one. I don't think I did a build thread on here. I'll dig up what info I have though. I sold it some time ago.

    Spacers and 0 Degree Caster - What?

    Thanks for all the input guys! I'll be adding some bushings. I've got some plates from another build that ended in a 3-link. I think that would be overkill. Going to try the bushings first then go from there.

    Spacers and 0 Degree Caster - What?

    Ah! Makes sense... I just hadn't read much about others having to correct their caster after only 1" spacers. To answer the other questions I'm 99% positive the coil springs are stock. Everything else on the rig was stock and rusty.

    Spacers and 0 Degree Caster - What?

    Can spacers really cause this much of a difference? A little background... I have a 95 FZJ80 that was stock. I just put 30mm MAF coil spacers on it along with new TREs and 285/70R17 tires. All went well and I took it for an alignment. Everything was within spec after the alignment except the...

    Oil Burn Between Oil Changes

    I have no clue when it is suppose to start coming on. However, when I check it as soon as it comes on there is a tiny amount still on the dipstick and 1 quart will put it back up to the full mark. I haven't really tested on a cold vs warm engine as I've seen others say it is different depending...

    Oil Burn Between Oil Changes

    Howdy! Haven't posted in forever so I figured I would. So how much oil does your 80 burn between oil changes, if any? For me I have 216,000 miles on a cruiser I got about a year ago, I use 15w40 Shell Rotella and it consumes a quart a little over 3,000 miles. Usually my low oil light will come...

    What is this clip? Picture attached

    I 100% agree with you guys on Toyota wires. I was just curious if I could purchase this broken plastic clip on the end of the current NGK plug wire. It's the part that plugs into the dizzy.

    What is this clip? Picture attached

    Just picked up another 80 series recently. Driving it today and it started missing like crazy. Pop the hood to see a plug wire came off. The wires are newer NGK brand and in great looking condition. The plastic clip on the end of it is broken though and doesn't want to stay locked in. Anyone...

    I just hope I can still drive to the mall.

    Agreed!

    Oh and for the record... the LC rarely sees asphalt. This is my DD/tow rig.

    Flexing the 3 link

    I've said I'm "done" more times then I can count. Started with 33s and a 2.5" OME lift.... several sets of tires and suspension changes has left me here. Not to mention all the other junk along the way.

    Exactly what my setup looks like. Actually modeled it after this: http://www.actionjackson.com/cruiser/mods/20060110.asp Nice!

    Flexing the 3 link

    I still have the stock radius arms if that counts for anything.... Well they are no longer attached to the 80 LOL

    Flexing the 3 link

    I've changed the tie rod and the drag link both to a heavy duty setup. I folded the stock one like a taco when I was running XML's. Wheeling like this is what prompted the 3 Link: I still made it through this spot but I would have had more traction if I could have put the driver side tire...

    exoskeleton pics

    So 4 years later I finally got around to putting an exo on the 80. This is after I have beat the doors up pretty good along with just about every other body panel.

    3rd Member Swap

    Will a 3rd member from a 92 (semi-float) fit into the axle housing of a 93-97 full float? I broke an axle and was looking to maybe replace the housing and switch to longs with the new housing but already have an aussie and 5.29s in my 3rd member.

    First wheeling trip

    2.5" Lift is the way to go. That was the first lift I put on and loved the truck. It had good road manners and I could wheel most of the stuff I wanted to. As time went on and lift/tire size went up I found I just broke more stuff along the way... lol! Now I trailer the 80 everywhere.
