G'Day, Sorry if this has been posted before and sorry for the long winded story to come. I am having an issue with my left rear brake. As you can see from the subject, its a 79 BJ and for those who dont live in Costa Rica, RTV or Retieve is the annual vehicle corruption...err, inspection. So...

So I plan on doing the dreaded front knuckle rebuild and while I am doing that I am going to be replacing the steering knuckle studs and brake pads. Any other quick maintenance I should do while I have things torn apart in the front end?

Hello, I purchased my 02 LX470 several months ago and was going through the car top to bottom and discovered the infamous water leak from the 3rd (high mount) brake light on top of the tailgate. The PO attempted a bodge job with butyl tape to seal it. The housing was bowed from the sun and...

So, these are my pouting words from a defeated man. I just now decided after breaking my new windshield during the install, that working on this FJ40 isn’t bringing me the pleasure it once did. Despite all the work and money, it still looks like a beater and I am just to tired to see beyond that...

Back-story: Hi all, I've been a Mud member for about two years now. Thanks to this site I bought my 80 from another member in 2018 and have been enjoying it ever since. It's a 1997 so it's got that 1FZ-FE inline goodness under the hood. Currently sitting around 248K on the odometer. I bought it...

Hey everyone, This site is a wealth of knowledge and have appreciated everything I’ve learned from here. Quick question, I’ve yet to find a direct answer to this, but I have a 1996 Cruiser with some brake issues. When I push the brake pedal down, it feels like there is little to no resistance...

Well, I placed my 1st RockAuto order. Picked up a set of loaded calipers and rotors for the 1980 FJ40 front axle rebuild. The rotors have the partial GCX corrosion coating and the calipers come with the gold colored corrosion coating and ceramic pads. I will update this post with actual pics...

I plan on replacing my front brake pads this weekend. In the process I also plan on resurfacing the rotors. Might as well give the hub some attention as well. If the parts aren't destroyed, would I need to replace the bearing seals, bearings, gaskets, etc in the hub or can I just repack? As...

Hey guys, I unfortunately don’t drive a LC but I do drive a 4runner (2003 sr5 V8 118k) and I was hoping one of you could meet up with me and help me diagnose/fix an issue my truck just started having. My rear passenger side brake is making an awful grinding noise. I’m hoping its not the...

The motor went out on my master cylinder assembly booster pump motor and Toyota replaced the entire assembly rather than just the motor. Toyota said it was the motor that failed and the rest of the assembly was in good working order. My plan was to have pump rebuilt with a new motor and then...

Hey guys need a little input. 92 FJ80 So last summer me and my father overhauled the front brakes while we did the knuckle rebuilds. We also replaced the soft lines and a few crispy hard lines. As I get ready to rebuild my rear drums this summer I noticed my LSPV is looking really rough and...

i have a 94’ fzj80 and am having brake issues. i recently changed rear pads, and rear driver caliper/rotor. i’ve noticed that when coming to a stop once i hit about 15mph i get what feels like a grinding/pulse in the brake pedal. also when coming to a complete stop the brake pedal isnt constant...

What are these bolts for? The one on the left is leaking oil. Seems like a bad washer / gasket but I don’t know. Secondly, before I took the fj40 on a test drive I noticed slimy yellow buildup in oil cap along with water drops on it. Is this normal or a cracked head gasket? The oil pan was...

Hey everybody! I have a few questions about my 1970 FJ55. I got this truck about a week ago, so I am definitely new to the whole thing. This truck has been sitting since 1996 so as you can imagine it is a serious project. I am still unsure on how invested I really want to be in the project...

Has anyone replaced the brake tubes on a 100 series. I got a quote for $1400. I was wondering how tough it is. I am struggling to find much information on here, but then again I am new to the forum. I see a lot of folks doing the break hoses but my lines/tubes are rusty. Another mechanic asked...

Hey all, I'm overhauling the brakes on my 80 and there's a ton of threads about mushy brakes that are difficult to bleed. I haven't gotten that far yet, as I'm still on axle stands waiting on a few more parts. However, I'm thinking ahead. One of the solutions I've seen posted is to delete the...

Long time lurker that needs help! I have a 2003 LX with 120k miles. All in all the rig is in amazing shape lexus dealer maintained until 95k all services performed. Recently I noticed that my brake pedal will feel soft on the first push then it will stay stiff like it should. I will drive for...
