Hi, looking for torsion bar & droop advice. My 99 LC is converted from AHC to OME 2". My (front) center hub to fender measurement is 51.5cm (20.27”) and full droop is 59.5cm (23.42”) so I have 8cm (3.15”) of droop which is currently limited by the shocks, I can get another 2cm (0.78") droop out...
Fellow cruiser heads,
I need advice on a little problem I have ran into whilst installing a OME/Dakar 2” kit. I got the front all bolted on and it was a breeze, just time consuming.
On the back I hit a snag with a shackle bolt getting stuck and need some advice for people that have overcome...
I adjusted the valves to spec and timed it with the light gun at idle (many thanks to responses to my questions on how to get this far). Previous owner had done a "partial desmog" according to people who saw pictures. Now that the rebuild is done I want to know where I need to run vac tubes to...
Howdy land cruiser lovers,
I have been looking at a troopy online and it is the dream vehicle. LHD, dual tanks, lockers, 1HZ and a reasonable prize tag. It was previously a UN vehicle, sat for many years then restored by the owner. I do not have the ability to look at it in person but have...
So I have found a 1994 green triple locked truck. Check engine light is on, didn’t get a code. Speedo isn’t working. Underside is what. I really want advice on. Axles and frame have been painted. Seem solid. biggest issue is when I engage the lockers the dash light just keeps blinking. They...
Edit: I got a video of what might be the problem, can anyone confirm I am on the right track?
My 06 LX has play in the drivers seat, it just started, you can push it down like 1” and it springs back up, it’s like it’s secure up on the front of the track, and has play on the rear of the...

Hello, I'm considering the purchase of a 1982 LHD HJ47 pickup Landcruiser originally from Costa Rica, now titled in the States. The vehicle seems clean as I have seen it in person, yet I do not have any pictures. It features 70 series turn signals and bed, has been repainted, and is a South...
From what I can gather, the 74 will line up with all the frame mounts. I gather the holes will also line up with my oem seat brackets, tranny cover, roll bar. Is that correct?
The dash will be a little different as it doesn't have the seatbelt light and the defrost vent holes on each side...
Hey guys
read a lot about the different shocks and while being on ICON Stage 2 first I'm currently rather stepping away due to maintainance.
Weight info:
Our LC will be getting a Dissent front bumper with a syn. rope winch, adding ~160lbs.
The rear will also get a bumper with wing out for the...
Hi Mudders!
I’ve had Colorado on my bucket list for a long time and am finally planing a trip this summer. I’m looking for a little advice and the mud community has always been super helpful.
I want to focus on the Alpine Loop area but maybe that’s just because I don’t know any better. I want...

Just bought an HZJ75 LC and cannot locate the fuel filter for it. We live in USA and it's a 1993 Japanese firetruck, inline diesel. Does anyone know which fuel filter to use?
So, I received a Auxbeam switch system for a Christmas present and have been struggling to find a place to mount the fusebox in the engine bay. Here is what I have tried so far:
-Inside the battery box- too thick. The 8 gang fusebox would fit here ironically.
-DS firewall- provided battery...
To start I have looked at the sticky of shops recommended for 70 series owners. I know there is a shop in LA and Stockton I can go to.
I got rear ended, and while it totaled the 4runner behind me, I came out still driveable. A pushed in rear door, a bend in my rear crossmember and probably...
I need to replace the trim piece that runs below my radiator grill. I took various advice from this board and located the part number for my ‘02 Land Cruiser in 6Q7 (Imperial Jade Micah). I am now having trouble locating this part (5390360040) in the same color.
I figured I would ask advice...
Looking for advice on this runaway corrosion on the frame. It’s the left side rear near the spring.
It looks like one of the pre-drilled holes got carried away and this was never addressed. Strange thing is there is zero body rust and the paint is 9/10 for a 2002.
If I can find a body shop...
Did a number on my poor rig. Wondering if I should pull as many parts and replace with stock before insurance picks it up. I’m guessing they will want to total the poor girl. Any suggestions on the best course of action with insurance? There’s a number of nice bits that I could pull. WAT...
Read a few different threads about jet sizing but it seems to differ for year models. I have an early Aisan F carb that l am running on my 2F in my 71 FJ40.
I have removed the old jets and found the primary main jet 112
Secondary main jet 200
Slow jets both 50 (saw 0.85mm recommended)
