question

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...

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...

So I rebuilt my knuckles last weekend. Everything seemed fine. On Wednesday I got a weird screech/grind sound 3 times that I could feel vibration from at the same time. No noises on Thursday. Then on Friday as I was headed home, the car squeaked (from what sounds like the front left knuckle)...

I may get flamed for this, but here goes Exactly how much variation can there be in knuckles. In the 3 sets I have to choose from for my disc upgrade the shims only varied by 1 or 2. If I choose a set and setup for preload only, am I courting disaster later? I've got the Marlin Crawler seals...

I'm looking at doing a speaker upgrade on my 06. My question is does anyone run a 2 channel speaker up front and a 3 channel in the rear? How does it sound? I was going to go with 2ohm 6.5" speakers but was wondering if the 3 channel coaxil set up for the rear would be the best option. thx.

so, tried search, apparently I can't find the wright words for the search. I want to upgrade the headlight wiring to bigger wires to get max performance. I keep hearing about the headlights being wired differently than "normal" cars. Anyone got a wiring diagram or good explanation of what I...

I'm on a road trip and noticed my oil gauge is a little low. I just had an oil change. Any worries here? Thanks!!

sorry if I missed it on the forum at all, but in my quick search I couldn't find it. I have a 2.5 OME lift on my 1985 cruiser right now. the shocks and springs are pretty worn and I am looking to do an upgrade. I have never messed with suspension lifts before so bear with me. I am just looking...

Putting my sons front end back together and noticed these two outer TRE's don't have grease fittings. The passenger one has grease in it but the drivers side does not seem to have any. I understand I can remove the bolt, add a fitting and then grease it, but my question is this common? The...

Hello all, I am a new Landcruiser owner, but have owned a modified Tacoma for 9 years now. I just purchased a '96 cruiser that has a 1HD-t swap, bald tires and the OME stock height suspension under it. Because of the diesel engine, I'm considering attempting to put 35" tires on it to keep...

Currently have a 73 fj40 running a 70's gm 307 sbc. Radiator is definitely on its last legs and I am looking to replace it with a universal one, possibly aluminum, any suggestions as to what I should be running?

So had the 100 in for service (170k), and dealer confirmed both front wheel bearings have play in them. I noticed this myself so I know it's true. They want to charge me 4 hours labor just to CHECK the bearings...lol. Obviously they want to sell me a bearing job. Wondering if the indy mech who...

My son just called after having his oil changed saying that the "cv axle has a gap," apparently before it sets into the hub. I am clueless when it comes to this stuff but have learned a lot from this forum. Does anyone have suggestions on what causes this or if it is dangerous or needs to be...
