installation

Help !!! My Costa Rican mechanic is trying to install an Aussie Locker on my 1997 LC. Neither the instructions, or this tutorial mentions the RDF (rear differential) spacer (part No. 14 in schematic below) which fits over the RDF shaft (part No. 13.) It is sort of a cylindrical collar with 2...

Read a previous thread on an attempt to install the Naviav system. Decided to bite the bullet and attempt the install myself because of the outdated system in the newer 100's. The system did not come with instructions, but there is a video on the install. I guess I will have to document the...

Having done this in the past I see no reason to remove the t-case for the install. I found it easier and more room on the 100/LX470 series than the 80 series. I put the AHC in High and drove it up on car ramps. Looking back maybe a little too high overall with a lot of reaching. Should not...

Shocks are pretty much shot on the back end of my '95 so looking at getting on OME 2.5" kit installed. Anybody local that can do it?

Mechanic is telling me that my 1975 40 is out of alignment and needs a castor kit and at least one new perch. I see that a kit from Ruff Stuff is $460. Any idea on what the range of the labor would be? He's telling me all-in of $1,900. Thanks for the feedback. Brendan

I'm trying to finalize my to-do lists and cautions regarding the installation of a new H55f 5-speed (behind a 3FE and in front of an FJ62 transfer case) in my '86 FJ60 project. I recall reading somewhere here on MUD fairly recently (last year or two) that the H55f gears are "pre-set" at the...

Was able to find a brand new complete FRP fender flare set for my 88 62 but the instructions are vague to say the least and even though FRP is an australian company and it is in english, the included instructions seem far from english to me haha Anyone here have experience with installation of...

I'm installing an OME heavy on my FJ62. Rust isn't an issue and everything came off ok. Got the leaf spring shackles and pins in and tightened down, but when I use the jack to compress the spring to line up the bottom plate to the U bolts, they are off. I was able to get one side to go through...

I just bought a 97 Trooper and need some recommendations for a shop that can help me fab some simple brackets to mount my (very heavy) steel bumper w/ winch. The previous owner had made up some brackets but they weren't strong enough and failed during the recovery of a stuck in and upside down...
