Howdy- I'm a long time LC owner who is new to the forum. Currently living with an 1993 unlocked 1FZFE. There are few options for mechanics where I reside, so I've been doing my own base lining. You guys have saved me thousands of dollars and labor hours. Thanks!
Got this off GovPlanet a couple weeks ago - Ekko EK20R. Full on Chinese built machine. Only has 300hrs on it and I've found/fixed several minor issues but it's got a broken king pin in one of the steering knuckles and I'm hitting a wall trying to find one and associated bearings/etc. Haven't...
I'm a software engineer who also owns an FJ60 and started working on an app targeted to classic car DIY mechanics like most of the folks here. It started out as a parts aggregator so I could easily look up a part for my 60 and find out where I could get it at the cheapest price. I'm now also...

Would love to be able to call right now since I’m trying to get it away from where it’s parked tonight!
I'm a "Super Newbie" to the site. So, I apologize for any wrong ways I go about asking questions. I have my first rough FJ40 that I want to tear down and redo over time. I'm extremely excited but to be honest I'm a greenhorn at mechanics. Is there any master tool list someone has put together...

Wondering if any one had any recommendations for Land Cruiser shops/mechanics in Southern California/Orange County? I saw a thread somewhere earlier but for some reason I can't find it.
Looking for help with an ARB air compressor install and maybe some suspension work.
Thanks!
Anyone know of any great body shops in the NYC area that really have good knowledge on Landcruisers from the late 80's early 90's. I live in Brooklyn and am looking for land cruiser now and would love to find a local shop to develop a relationship with if I need help and can't fix things myself...
Hey guys:
I know there've been lots of threads on this swap in the last few years on Mud. However, I'm actually looking to see if there's a local shop that specializes in Cruisers that anyone has used for an H55f transmission swap. I have two 60 series an 85 FJ60 and an 89 FJ62 that I'd like...
