All,
You may have seen my other thread about the “heater hose” where I had a frozen coolant plug bolt on the head I had to drill out. Good news is I finally got it out today! Bad news is, when I reassembled everything, filled the radiator with water, I noticed the carburetor starting to fill...
Got in the car today and my kids started complaining that the rear AC smelled awful. After assessing for myself, sure enough it smelled bad - like mold or mildew. We have received allot of snow lately but this has never been a problem before. The kicker is that the front vents have no smell at...
Hey all! I have a 94’ 80 series and have been chasing down an intermittent transmission issue for a while now. For back story, transmission has been serviced by myself previously. Have done 3 trans drain and refills and began having a random gear loss after the last one, no issues before that...
Picked up some secondhand oem fender flares that should look nice with my 35’s.
For the life of me I can not find anyone that has reinstalled these. Everyone’s usually ripping them off.
For anyone that has reinstalled these, is there a kit online for all new mounting hardware? Yes there’s a lot...
I am about to start the heater T and hose replacement on my 2006 LX470. I pulled the radiator cab off just to take a quick look and found this portion of a rubber type gasket floating in the coolant. Has anyone ever seen this or does anyone have any idea where it may be from?
I’ve searched and searched. In stripping down all the old garbage from PO this is the last thing and I can’t figure it out. Important or part of PO add one? Runs down to front of engine. I’m thinking old fog lights?
Hi there everyone, spanish friends especially!
I have found what looks to be an amazing truck and I need help with an inspection and export from Spain to Canada.
Is anyone here based in Spain near Madrid?
We would pay for your time and help of course:)
Hey Everyone,

Hi Folks
We are tourists from Europa and travel the PanAm. Currently we are in Havasu City, Arizona.
Since quite some time we have a Desth Wobble problem. Several mechanics /shops tried already to fix it without success. Latest just yesterday, changed a bearing of the tie rod and adjusted the...
I replaced my accumulators tonight but missed the step about having to have the system in LOW mode before starting. I drained and replaced the accumulators in NORMAL mode. Now when I start the truck it flashes N then says Low and gives the Check 4 Wheel AHC system. The pump won't run. I've tried...
Can someone tell me how to permanently turn off the LDA in a 2021? I somehow turned this on and the constant beeping is driving me nuts. Thanks and happy thanksgiving.
Hello all I am new to mud and new to owning my 80 series. I recently picked up a 1993 cruiser with 172000 miles on it and I love it, I cleaned it up a little put a lift wheels and tires on it and I daily drive it no issues whatsoever its a great rig.... until this morning. I was driving to work...
When i bought my LX, the previous owner has "disabled the sunroof" after it stopped working. I would have been happy to leave it like that but it started leaking in heavy rains so i decided to tear into it. The write-ups on this forum have been amazing and i actually enjoyed the sunroof frame...

Attempting to check my water temp sensor led me to do a check of my thermostat.
HOWEVER
Some previous owner must have opened the thermostat casing before and then used a sticky silicone (loctite?) to form a gasket sealing it together with the water pump.
The sucker won’t budge.
Any tips...
So I'll start this off with a photo.
Motor sludged up horribly. Worst I've seen. I haven't had the valve covers off this truck since I bought it, but last oil change was approx 3500 miles ago. Only about 120,000 km on the odometer.
Anyway it began making noise this weekend promoting me to...
Hello all.
Going to try and keep this concise and clear.
1994 triple locked Land Cruiser. Previous owner re-geared it to 4.88s. Still running stock tires.
My question is- will the factory center lock (and the rear and front locker for that matter) still work as normal with a regear?
The...
Hi all, New guy here. I have a new to me 1968 FJ40 from South America. I didn't realize it was from SA until after I bought it but it is what it is. In any case among other things the speedometer isn't working. I replaced the cable since the old one was beat up and it seemed like a good...
2015 Land Cruiser with 125k miles.
Took the cruiser to a Land Cruiser shop in Houston. Did the 120k mile services there instead of dealership. Transmission fluid was part of the job.
When I picked it up, it would “slip” when u-turning under the freeway at speeds of 15-20 mph. I would idle...
