question

Hi, need some advice. I have searched the forums and can't find the answer so am asking here: I have an '00 LX with the AHC. I'd like to run 295/75/16s and would also like a bit of lift (2-3") How do I best obtain this? I do plan to have front and rear bumper and roof rack. it's my DD so I...

Finishing up new radiator install. I have one of the cooler lines between the frame rail and bottom of the radiator. Are both lines supposed to be together routed outside/in front of the radiator? Not much room, and my memory didn't take note when I pulled the old rad out. Pic 1 shows the line...

Are 67/45 truck red/clear tail light lenses available? Thanks, John

Hey, my dad recently got a 2017 Tundra with BFG ATKO2s in 275/65R16. The dealership inflated them to 34 psi, but I seem to remember running my BFG ats at 60ish. The max is 80 psi on the tire, for a much larger truck. What should he run his tires at? There's still snow and ice where he lives if...

Hey So, having a bit of trouble finding an answer for this. On my last vehicle I built a rear bumper and did the "great big bolt through some bronze bushings thing" for a hinge, and it worked OK. Wasn't pretty or anything. Now that I have a Cruiser, I want to do something nicer. I was...

I am planning making my triumphant return to the Pacific Northwest this summer and I am toying with the idea of picking up another Land Cruiser and driving it home. I am torn between two ideas. I already have a nice 80. I have sunk enough money into quality repairs and maintenance, along with...

Newbie question I feel like I should know the answer to. I added the pictured 72 FST FJ40 to my collection last fall. I am slowly making some changes to it. It came with a factory roll bar that had been modified. I am wondering if and when did Toyota start putting roll bars in the FST...

Does the STANDARD aneroid pin allow full fuel at full boost (thinnest part of taper)? Or is it still restricting it in comparison to the main set screw setting? As such, does rotating the aneroid pin affect any change at FULL boost when the pin is fully depressed? I am only talking full boost...

I have a 1970 fj40 with a June bulid date. I am now going to try and finish my brake system.i have up graded to the willwood front disc about two years ago . I removed the valve in the master cylinder when I did that . Recently my brake booster has bit the dust.I ordered one from city racer and...

I have a new project a 1966 FST. I confirmed as much as I can tell (holes for hooks up by door frames, hinges for soft top doors, strap hardware) that my project is a factory soft top. I have not worked on something this old before. The soft top bows were missing when I bought it. I bought a...

Every year I have to have freon added to the 62. Does it just creep out over time because of the age of the system ? Is it worth trying to repair or should I just keep adding freon every summer ? Thanks

Trying to order my antenna assembly for my HDJ81. Did everything the website wanted me to do.. Now I am waiting for my order to be approved so I can pay for the part and shipping. I am wondering how long this approval takes? It has been 2 days now and I still can't pay for the part I want...

my 12ht leaks oil around the oil pump and somewhere behind the turbo, (i don't think it is the turbo). not sure if the rear main bearing seal is leaking. when my engine got rebuilt about 30K ago i placed a sleeve over the crankshaft where the rear main seal ride because of a groove there created...

I just wrapped up my birf overhaul with the new Aisin hubs on my 97 LX450. I had the 2nd groove machined on my axle and everything went great until I had to put the snap rings on. the new groove and ring seated perfectly but I wasn't sure if I still needed the original clip. The outer...

About to replace my water pump. Nothing wrong with the original, but completing a complete refresh of the cooling system. I bought this pump from the classifieds awhile back. It is in an Aisin box, sealed in plastic, with an accompanying gasket. It has the stamps ground down with an Aisin...

Forgive me for asking this in the TECH section, but it seems like the best place to get an answer and I'm all about looking good ;) Does anyone know an over the counter spray paint for matching the OEM color for the LX450 center caps? Not interested in anything other than a factory look.

My '94 1FZ-FE started acting funky two weeks ago. White smoke was coming from the exhaust so I assumed a head gasket had failed. I pulled the head to replace the gasket and found that cylinder 5 was soaking wet with coolant and my oil has so much coolant in it that it looks like chocolate milk...

I just got the 100 this weekend and filled it all the way up on Sunday. I drove around 55 miles and noticed that I was 3/4 of a tank. So I thought maybe I hadn't filled it up all the way...so I topped it off and made sure it was full. Now I have gone 38 miles and same thing....already showing...

Can I put a pair of US 4runner wiper arms on my HDJ81? Did this on my FJ60 and it was a huge improvement. Also you get more of a selection of wiper arms for your 81. If not what is the wiper arm upgrade everyone is doing? Thanks!!
