rebuild

Hey everyone, so I'm looking for anyones recommendations based on experience with a 3FE. Here's the situation: 92 FJ80, 3FE, engine seized, I got a replacement and it's been rebuilt by a shop, installed by another shop. Pressure test when cold is good, but once it heats up, it starts dumping...

Did a re-seal on a manual steering gear box from a 1982 FJ40. Video of the rebuld here. It is also for sale for $350 plus shipping if anyone is interested.

I was able to purchase a 1993 fzj80 triple locked with small crash damage. The engine at the time sounded good but I had oil light on, after some research I found out oil light is very common issue and I may not need to concern myself to much if everything else checks out. Well it did... at the...

Happy Turkey Day! Recent Deer strike left my7 driver side front end smashed up. Air bags did not go off, all damage seems to localized to driver side front end. Insurance said it doesn't cover deer strike so I'm SOL. I've been round and round with the insurance, now looking for out of pocket...

Hey all I know there are members who do outstanding jobs of rebuilding and selling FJ40 2F carbs. I’ve been searching in mud and can’t find their contact info or websites. I’ve tried to send messages. Is there an existing resource list already? If not..can someone please post a contact list...

Are some better than others? Any advice on what rebuild kits are the best? Thanks!

Came out of a 1998 Lexus LX470 with 411,000 miles on it (at time of removal). The case had been filled with ATF and the gears are so worn out that they vibrate above speeds of 45 mph. Good candidate for a regear or rebuild. Plenty of good spare parts Asking $200 willing to negotiate

Thanks

Hi all, I have been lurking for a bit, but I am pretty new to the Land Cruiser world, picked up a 1993 Land Cruiser in August. On my drive home from Durham to Nashville I was experiencing a grinding noise that would only happen when I lifted off the throttle at 60+ MPH. The noise is fairly...

Does anyone know of any place in Tucson that repairs/rebuilds heater cores or radiators? Mine have all been leaking. I suspect the fins are separating.

I think I eft up. Thought id do a nice thing for my truck and took the engine in for a rebuild after 50 years, well that might have been a mistake. Researched builders in the area and visited a few, the one I decided on had just done a couple of F engines so “ they know what to do”. Build has...

Can anyone recommend a good shop in the New England area for rebuild my diesel injectors? 1975 H diesel...

I'm having some work done to a 105, and I wanted to see what people thought about these axles. I'm being told they need rebuilt. It's way beyond my technical expertise, and I want a second opinion for some peace of mind before I pull the trigger. .

Hi all I just took apart my blower motor, cleaned it, and replaced the brushes and now its slower than before. I tried some with short 1/4 inch l;ength brushes and 1/2 inch brushes as well and while the shorter brushes made the rpm faster than the longer ones, they still both were barely usable...

EDIT : Worth the read but I figured it out. It was what Toyota calls the "Deflector" that is the metal backing plate behind a gasket and the axle plate. It was deformed and wrapped around a bit of metal on the axle housing and preventing the axle from coming out. You can see it on the final...

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, I am the proud owner of a 1984 HJ60 equipped with a 2H engine. As many of you might be aware, it's on the slower side. However, I plan on making this my lifelong car and envision undertaking a full restoration to transform it into a ski-van/doomsday vehicle...

I'm aiming to rebuild my case next spring. 83 FJ60. Currently have a 4spd/stock case/stock diffs rolling 33x10.50r15s. I plan to keep the 2F/4spd until they blow. It runs great now and hopefully with some preventative maintiance we should be in the clear for a while. Future plans will be...

Hey guys was just thinking maybe it’s time I start a thread for 1fz-fe I have been rebuilding and selling them for a while now and figured I should start documenting it in a thread. I usually buy motors from trucks with a blown head gasket, but sometimes buy whole trucks and rebuild them and...

Alright winter is approaching and I really need to get coolant in my engine. I need advice on a few things on how yall would about dealing with them. My cooling system is original down to the original pump that still surprisingly still works and doesn't leak at all. The barring is shot and has...

I have a leaking cylinder on my ’71 FJ40. I’ve looked for replacements but not a lot of luck yet. Anyone with some sources would be appreciated. I pulled the wheel off the Cruiser today and it looks like the right side cylinder is leaking ( what do y’all think? ) Is it possible or an option to...
