    Alternator Pivot Bolt Bushing

    After steam cleaning my filthy engine, I started having alternator problems which quickly lead to the need to replace the alternator. The new alternator was 0.004" wider where the pivot bolt mounts compared to the original alternator. The bushing needs to be pushed back to make room for the...

    SOLD  100 Series UCA Bushings x4 (48632-60010)

    I have 4x UCA bushings that I bought for my 100 series but didn't end up needing to use. Prefer to sell as a set –– $150 for all including shipping. That beats the price of anyone online, including PartSouq after factoring in shipping. Feel free to send a message with any questions, glad to...

    How to tell when UCA bushings go bad?

    Maybe a dumb question, but how can you tell when your upper control arm bushings go bad? I am replacing my upper ball joints (which are completely shot) but they just won’t press out. I am pretty frustrated and considering now just going for entirely new UCAs since if I pull the current UCAs...

    RTH: Split UCA Bushing Housing?

    Working on pressing out my front end bushings/ball joints and all went well until the upper control arms. Working on the first one and I was pressing it in a not so great way and it didn't work. So I release the pressure and started looking at how I could make it better and I noticed a gap in...

    Anyone using patrol bushings in their 80 series?

    I ordered a set of OEM bushings from superior engineering for the front radius arms on the 80 and ended up receiving nissan branded bushes (I assume for a gu patrol). I called up the store and was told the bushes are the same size and made from the same compound so they just send out either or...

    Looking for a reliable shop in states bordering on Mexico

    We have been travelling South-America for over one year and the wear and tear on the car (overweight Land Cruiser 100, 1HD-FTE 4.2 ltr diesel engine) proves it. We squeak and peep like there's no bushings left. There's enough play in the front bearings to have the wheels oscillate. We're...

    Steering rack - what else to fix "while you're in there"?

    Well, at just over 180k my steering rack is starting to leak pretty heavily. I'm going to do the lift-engine method and replace it. Anything else I should consider checking/replacing "while I'm in there"? Plan: New OEM steering rack OEM steering rack bushing 555 Outer tie rods

    Front End "Thunk" 1990 FJ62

    Hi All, Started getting a "thunk"/"knock" when turning left while simultaneously going over a bump. Sometimes it does it going straight going over a large rut/bump at speed. I have not had a chance to get under the truck to take a look but I figured, as always, there is usually a "most common"...

    Rack mount bushing - how much play is too much?

    Yet another steering rack bushing thread, but so be it. My question for the assembled wisdom of MUD is: How much play is reasonable between the rack and the frame? See the video I've linked to, below. This is on a 2005 LX470, 140,000 miles. Presumably the original rack and bushings...

    Bushing measurement needed, please.

    Does anybody have an upper and lower rear suspension links that they could measure for me? I just need the distance from edge of bolt hole to edge of bolt hole. I'm trying to get the true width of the bushing so I can get a measurement on exactly how wide the link mounts are without taking my...

    Radius Arm to frame bushing dimensions

    Like the title says... can any of you guys get me the official dimensions on the rear bushings that attach the front radius arms to the frame? (looking for width, height/outer diameter and bolt diameter/inner diameter) I'm sure this info is widely available but an internet search didn't get...

    45LV door hinge bushing reproduction....who would be interested?

    I'm considering doing a run of brass door hinge bushings if enough people are interested....minimum run is 100 pieces....each truck takes 16. So maybe there are 6 people out there that would want some(I'll keep a set for me). If so, let me know. I have a brand new hinge I am going to take...

    What is the best way to check control arm bushing health?

    I just picked up a 2000 lx with 160k miles on it and am loving it. Going in i had planned on a mountain of PM work all up front so i dont have to think about it again for a while since im likely only putting 5k per year max on this vehicle. So one of the things on the list is a suspension...

    400k mile RCA bushing change

    Backstory: My 1992 cruiser was pretty smooth on my first set of Kenda Klevers MTs that were installed around 360k miles, but when they warrantied that set last at 374k miles March the ride quality deteriorated. We had a set put on and then headed out for Moab a day later, and it was shaking...

    Life and death of an OME bushing

    My kid drives the 62 now so I'm not as aware of its daily creaks and groans, until I moved it out of the driveway a few days ago. Horrendous clunking/rattling with every move of the wheel. Long story short, several of the front OME Spring bushings were shot...one set completely GONE! The...

    Slee upper link bushing replacement

    After crushing a part of my exhaust off-road I had to cut it off right after the muffler. Didn't notice that the exhaust points almost right at the body side mount of the upper link and now I have no bushing. Slee only sells a complete set of bushings so I'm trying to find a single bushing to...

    Front LCA Bushing Press Tool Loan?

    Anyone in the Portland, OR area have a bushing press tool I can borrow? I have a press but not the tool. Can't find a socket that fits and don't want to wait a week to get the tool from Slee. I'm replacing the 2 bushings/per LCA with caster adjustable bushings. Thanks in advance. Jason

    hinge bushing / pin measurements

    Hi all - Does anyone have handy measurements for OEM hinge pins, and the inner diameter of OEM bushings? I'm running into trouble reinstalling my front doors with old pins and new brass bushings. It's possible the old pins aren't the right size, or the new bushings aren't the right size...

    Spindle bushing wear...OK?

    Well, after my recent birfield post I thought I should get some Mud eyes on my spindle bushings. I'm in the middle of a birf rebuild on a 94 LC with 270k miles. This is part of my ongoing baselining after buying it last year. No history records but in generally good shape. Not an off-roader...
