Hey all:
I have an 80 series that I drive on occasion. When turning and braking at the same time (or just before/after braking) there's a loud noise coming from the truck. It sounds similar to worn down brake pads, but I've just had the brakes done. Tie rods have also been done recently, and...
Experiencing something odd.
2000 land cruiser. 200,000 miles.
When pushing on the gas both in park, and while driving, there is a loud rushing sound of air. I believe it might be fan related, but I'm not sure.
It is not affecting performance but I am concerned as we are preparing to leave...
I have a 2004 GX470 with just over 200,000 miles on it. I was driving today when the VSC/TRAC/ABS/BRAKE lights all came on and a loud continuous alarm went off. I was able to drive it for a while with no issues with the breaking. After a few minutes of driving the brakes went hard and stopped...
Figured I’d jump on here to see what y’all think. Gonna be a big one. I have a few things. First off. My 80 is on a 3 inch doninsons lift on 34 inch ridge grapps. I Noticed today when I have my 80 locked in front and rear and in 4 low… when I roll forward and switch between full lock left...
Greetings all. I need some help identifying and fixing a peculiar noise with my 1977 FJ40. I'll try to provide as many details as possible.
1. When driving in 2wd with the front hubs locked or unlocked there is no discernable unusual noise coming from the front drivetrain. This is consistent...
I’m not sure if this hissing (aka air spewing) is normal coming from the jet in the primary Venturi … I took off my air cleaner assembly to look - just sounds really loud. And maybe my ears all the sudden are just attuned to it or it’s new which I think. I was attempting to tune the carb a bit...
Hey guys, my 100 series cruiser just started squeaking when I drive forward. It doesn't squeak in reverse. It only happens when I accelerate or I'm coming to a slow stop.
I put new brakes on a year and a half ago, but I am up in the mountains alot. Rear differential pinion seal and fluids were...
I’m looking for recommendations on replacing my muffler with a QUIET one that fits into my 78 FJ40. I assume it would need to be something wider with more baffles internally to reduce sound but would also have to fit within the limited space. However, modifying the pipe angle is an option as...
So I was out washing the cruiser today and backed it out of the driveway to play vehicle dominoes so I could get it in the garage and out of the sun. Got back in it and started it up and was greeted with a loud buzzing noise coming out of the dash/steering column area that I have never heard...
I have an 86 lj 70 with rear drum brakes. after driving for a while fast (such that it goes fast-:) the rear brakes (I think) click loudly when I roll back and forth after driving (car off). if I let the truck sit then it rolls fine in five minutes. I just did the rear drums and my mechanic...
I grew up driving our FJ60 as a teenager when it was new and was finally given it to fix up for ourselves. Now that I got it going everything seems to sound like I could remember but some of my friends with Jeeps think the noise coming through the floor from the transmission is excessive and...
I need help diagnosing a strong vibration at around 40mph in my Land Cruiser.
This vibration has been happening ever since we swapped in a small-block v8 into our FJ60. So it unfortunately manifested itself after introducing many new variables to the equation. (OME lift, new wheels, new tires...
When I was back at my place in Nevada in mid-December, I started up my stock '84 FJ60 (~182,000 miles) to let it run for a while, as I usually do while I'm out there. It's been sitting (off and on) for almost nine years. Just before I parked it nine years ago I installed new plugs and wires...
Okay so first and foremost, Is the shifter supposed to be so loud and clunky? I'm talking about the shifter itself and not the actual drivetrain.
Are there any grease points in the shifter or linkage?
Also, where do the O/D button cables disconnect from the shifter? Someone cut and taped it back...
