first

Picked up this '77 last week. Seems to run pretty well and minimal rust, but definitely bondo in the typical areas. Has a few electrical issues I'm going to track down. Wipers don't work, headlights/taillights don't work. Horn doesn't work (PO put what looks like a doorbell on the dash to...

Hi, We just had an unreal amount of rain (for Southern California, at least), over 9" in 24 hours. The front passenger-side floor and mat were really wet, no standing water but kinda soaked on the front portion. I tried searching and it seems like it could be a sunroof drain leak (other...

I'm a big fan of AHC and have always maintained the system myself on my lX470 and now LX570 vehicles. Today, I had my first real hiccup in my AHC history and it made me wonder a bit about the chemistry of AHC fluid and the rubber (is it rubber?) membranes in our AHC globes. It's getting a bit...

Just picked up a '74 40 series - my first - It is a bit of a basket case but since I retired I have the spare time to rebuild her. (Pics in next post) First on the list is rebuilding the tub. First questions for the group.... I'm missing the Top and cab sides - there is a set in...

First time on the Tundra post. Has anyone done a tuning on their ECU, there is a company in Cali called KDMAX PRO TUNER Stating it can tune ECU give better fuel, throttle response, horsepower and increase torque.

I've always wondered about building out a 40. I've done a few 60 series. 1988 FJ62 was my first cruiser and I was done. Convinced it was all I would ever drive and I've always loved the sound of a V8 so I couldn't leave well enough alone. Lived in Australia for 3.5 years so I got to see all the...

Hello All, Long time lurker first time poster. :) Sorry for the novella backstory: So, as the thread title suggests I'm planning on importing my 60 to Munich where I've lived for almost 20 year....yes, I'm old and yes, I should have done this a long time ago. For the bulk of my time in Munich...

UK First Edition They get the diesel version.

Alright, I am finally part of the Land Cruiser community! This thread is part for all of you, but mostly for me to keep a story board of what I have done with this. :) I bought my first land cruiser, a 1984 BJ60 from a gentleman out in Manitoba. He was the second owner and purchased it in...

So, I just bought my first 80 Series! It's a '96 Triple-Locked HDJ80 from the Canary Islands. Hasn't shipped yet, but hoping to get it on the water soon. After getting it home, the first order of business will be ditching the ghetto wheels for something a little more appropriate.

Thought I would reach out to my mud family! My favorite 16 pound cat( Quint) came in last night with a broken leg🙁 They had to amputate due to the damage.. just want to know some good results of 3 leg cats living a good normal life!! He is doing well, considering what he has been through!

Some photos from the early days.... with some precursors and ancillaries ..... https://photos.app.goo.gl/egxLGAiz29w5RMnB8

Brief intro for the group...Wife and I picking up our first LC J80 in FL next week and driving back to TX. It's a bone stock, garage-kept 1994 HDJ81 import under 80K miles with 1HD-T, center diff lock, console cooler, and super clean interior. We're almost empty nesters and will start exploring...

Hi, I'm wondering about such a thing... Is there any chance to get to know where my 30yo LC80 was delivered and sold for the first time as a brand new vehicle? Is there any kind of archive maintained by Toyota where such information could be obtained? There must have been a register with...

Hi All I've been a silent observer on this forum for a while and have gained a lot of insights from all of you. I finally took the plunge and purchased an FJ40, with the primary goal of diving into car repairs and learning welding. Only thing i done before was the 50cc mopeds in my youth. So i...

Just wanted to start a thread to introduce myself and ask a few questions about an LC I’m considering buying. First off, I live in central MS and currently drive a 2011 Tundra. I’m considering buying an LC (1 owner) from a lady I know. This will not be replacing my tundra or be a daily...
