question

That should be "Questions about WIRING an ammeter", not just grounding. I got an onboard multimeter with shunt for measuring amps consumed from the Aux battery. My question is where to put the shunt. Some of the juice from that battery comes off an aux fuse box (fridge, fan, phone charging)...

I have reviewed the threads regarding coolant flushes, but I think I am overthinking what I need to do. I drained and flushed today until the water was almost clear. I have been draining from the petcock, not the block. So now I need to put concentrate coolant in. So after I drain 1.5-2...

I am swapping out a 2L-T for a 2L-T2. The 2L-T2 has additional "cannon" plugs for the Injection Pump that the 2L-T did not have. My question is if anyone knows, there is a blueish anodized electrical input at the top of the Injection Pump on the 2L-T2. Will the engine run without any electric...

@beno Are you the mud member whom works at a dealer? I have a question regarding a sunroof part number. If it's not you, can you tag whom it is? Please and thank you. Phil

When I was working on my old Jeep, the Bendpak would raise it enough to work under, and I could still use conventional jack stands as a safety back up (the lift has a mechanical lock). I find that for good clearance on this truck, I have to raise it higher than the jacks will reach. Bendpak...

Hey folks, First post here after lurking for the past 6 months. I'm looking to buy my first LC and have learned a ton about these trucks from this forum, so thanks for all the great info! I believe that I've done my research, and I know there've been a lot of these posts lately, but I saw what...

So I took my Lx470 to the Toyota dealership to have the Cv boots changed on on of my axles. I bought the Cv boot kit from another Toyota dealer and then decided to have the dealer near me do the repair. They just called and said the boots don't fit and that I have a after market Cv shaft. Does...

I'm new to the site but not a new cruiser owner. Bought my first at 16 and still own it, I'm 42 now. Have a 40,45,55,two 60's and an 80. Anyways, at 320k I'm finally having issues with my fj80 front end. I was wondering if the later fzj80 parts will fit in my housing. I'm aware of the different...

I am currently in the process of rebuilding two 2F Aisan Carburetors. One was stamped 5J27 (1975 October 27) and the other 6B3 (1976 February 3). The one built in October 1975 was the original carb for the 2F in the 1976 FJ40, never been rebuilt. The second one (February 1976) I purchased a...

So, my wife picked up some wiper blades for my 1998 LX470, and ended up getting the wrong size. That's when I noticed that 98 and 99 take 20" blades, where 2000 - 07 take a 24" and a 22". What changed? I imagine that the glass size is the same in all models. Are the arms different sizes, or...

I have an '05 LC and have heard conflicting information on this. When shifting into 4L, is the center diff lock AUTOMATICALLY activated? Or is it simply the transfer case ratio that changes and you still have to lock the diff on your own???

I need some help. Just bought a Diamond FF axle that uses 4runner e-brakes and I'm clueless. It's for a 2007 4.0 V6 model. Could someone direct me to a thread or picture of how the e-brake cables are hooked up and run. The axle will be installed on my 55 which had a 60 axle on it and I have the...

I read that the 2f has better oil flow and that the engine get the oil after it goes through the filter. Can the F during a rebuild do this(open up for more oil flow and filter before going to engine)?? Or is it just not worth trying to do? I know most will say upgrade but I have a nice cruiser...

Hi guys, I have some problem and Maybe you can help me. I have stock suspension (hidraulic) and when I raise it up, remain there if I run under some speed (20km/h ) I guess.... But....When I'm in off-road and the suspension is up....and I need pedal to the metal to go out from some...

so we are trying to get this 40 to fire. Started last week When dumping fuel into the carb. Just put an OEM fuel pump on and now we are not getting spark. Not sure if we broke whatever that is on top of the coil, but both sides are pulling 12v. Getting 12 volts to the top of the distributor but...

Bought a set of JBL GT608C 2ohm mid-woofer & tweeter combo; comes with component cross over. How much is speaker performance hindered if I don"t utilize the included cross over? Goal was to keep it quick & simple to just replace the blown woofer, use existing wiring, factory tweeter etc..

I have a 2003 100 series and the nav screen randomly broke today. The audio is now stuck completely in "audio off", and the map buttons do not even respond. I would like to just replace the screen with a non-nav 100 series climate control board and an upgraded aftermarket stereo system. Has...

In the process of starting a 1HZ conversion on my 62 series. I have a predicament though - I want a 5 speed. My 62 is really nice and I am concerned about the hole in the floorboard where the auto shifter is currently located. So I wanted to see what my fellow MUD members have done in this case...
