Okay, I know this has been covered in hella other threads (and please don't flame my newbie ass) but I have no idea what those say, so please hold my hand super tightly (I mean really effing tightly) through this process. I got a 2000 LX470. When I put the car in drive or reverse with central...

Ok, first post on this site. I (my dad) have a first-hand, dealership-bought 2000 LX470 with 113k miles on it, everything is all well and good until we get to a speed bump in the road, if I drive over it going anything above 10 miles per hour, the car bounces HARD and you can hear the front...

Hey guys, the fan pulley recently was toasted and I decided to do the timing belt and water pump as well. I am unsure what to do at my current step and want to make sure before I mess something up. I have turned the crank to where the cams align, but you can see the balancer is advanced. Should...

Hi everyone! I have a LJ70 with a 2LTE engine. The connector for the brown correction resistor on the injection pump body has cracked and the wires are broken off due to old age, causing my engine to surge badly during idle. The idle surge issue goes away when the wire temporary connects back...

Hello! I'm interested in a 96 80 series cruiser located in Middleton WI. I live in Minneapolis and had no experience with these vehicles. I talked to one of my friends who's very knowledgeable and he didn't find any deal killer. I'm wondering if anyone local is willing to do me a favor before I...

Hey guys, I know there are plenty of threads about this issue, but I am really just trying to source the right part. I have a 1998 LX470. Ebay sells a ton of them but they all seem to be stamped “7853B.” My understanding is that this part will not work and that it is for the LC with the manual...

I have a 1991 FJ80 with the 3FE engine. The car will easily start cold, and run flawlessly. But when it gets to operating temp, and I shut it off, then it will crank but wont start. When it does not start, it the tach doesn't even wiggle like it does when it does start. the only solution I have...

So on this nice bright beautiful Saturday I finally had time to do the front knuckle rebuild on my 62. i start tearing it down and jamming out to some music and taking my time and putting parts in aside in order so I reinstall everything in reverse order with ease. Well that's when 💩 hit the...
