Hi guys, I bought my car with this giant dent in it (which most likely is why the cars status is salvaged). Anyhow I feel like the car deserves to have that dent fixed. I've been trying to find inspiration here on ih8mud, Youtube and Google in general. Most people use a combination of a...

Hey all, I am new here, but have a 1990 FJ62 that has a water leak after about 10 minuets of driving in rain. The water was coming in right at the seam in the headliner, See picture. I paid 500 bucks :( to have the windshield replaced and resealed... but still leaked... EFFFFFFFFF. So then, I...

Tried a look around and can not find the problem with my non working rear running lights...... all else works well... front marker, turn signals, brake lights, interiors, bulbs n sockets r good, grounds that I can find seem good..... when I turn on the running lights there is a slight (30% ish)...

Replaced the air springs on my '08 GX470 last night with Arnott bags (Part A-2949) and I thought you would enjoy a writeup on how I did it, what I learned and how it went. First, I apologize for the lack of pics, I had thought about doing a video edit of the whole thing, but I was VERY tired...

I am having a hard time finding a trustworthy Auto Repair Shop for my 1991 FJ80 which has had an LS engine conversion. I am having trouble finding a place that 1) doesn't roll their eyes at the thought of having to work on a LC that has had an engine conversion (understandable to an extent) and...

Is it to late to turn this beast back into its former glory? It came from Illinois, land of the salty roads that breed rust on metal. Pics aren't the best but you get the general idea of how bad the rust is underneath. Surface rust doesn't look to bad although it has been repainted so who knows...

First off, yes I am stupid. I've been through enough self-hatred and regret for damaging the neatest truck I've ever seen. It is what is is, and my door is smashed. So I was backing my FJ40 out of my garage, and I thought my door was closed. The latch was half-closed, but just enough to swing...

Decided to sell my 1995 Honda Shadow 1100 ACE cruiser. American Classic Edition. 3670 miles. Clearly, I have not made time to ride it much. The issue is that it appears that it is only worth about $2k and it currently will not start -- fuel related. I have a new fuel pump and hoses that I...

Hi, Last year I embarked on the adventure to buy and drive a 1997 FZJ 80 4.5 in eastern Tajikistan. Spare parts are rare and so are qualified mechanics... Being tired of well-meant but not well-informed smattering, I try to figure out things myself. So, I'd be glad if anybody could help me...

As new. $30 shipped.

I just picked up a used 1FZ that I know absolutely nothing about. I found this on the rear passenger side freeze plug. Kinda looks like some sort of plug or patch but have never seen anything like it before.

I was thinking the other day on how easy these engines are to work on. Spark plugs, cake. Alternator, minor irritation. Power steering pump, moderate irritation. AC, haven't tried yet... Starter, tedious and long but not that difficult, really. Timing belt? Compared to a lot of other cars out...

hi everyone I have a LJ78 with swapped 1kz.. The front shaft is not locking and rest all vacuum n electric is f9. mechanic says it has some mechanical problem inside 4x4 (Trfr case I guess). Question is that can it b repaired and will it be reliable after repair regards

I know the moderator will probably smack my fingers with the ruler but I couldnt help myself. At least they left the hood alone o_O. 1964 Toyota Land cruiser FJ40 antique

I have spent most of the morning searching through about 500 threads on wiper repair and I still cannot find an answer. I have also checked google as well. My question is, how difficult is it to repair or remove the front wiper assembly linkage? Like a dummy, my driver side wiper was frozen...

What's up everyone? Hope you all are having a great day so far. About a year ago my 96 Land Cruiser was rear-ended on the left side causing the axle and wheel to bend and go in about 5-6 inches. (Should have seen the other car.. It was totalled lol) Since then, my father had it straightened...

Found this but not sure how to install, I am sure someone here can figure it out. Shed some light if you do so everyone can benefit from this. ;) Файл из Облака Mail.Ru

I found the website for D&M Restoration in Greenville. They specialize in tachometer, speedometer and instrument cluster component repair/restoration. Does anyone have any experience with their work or this company? I have two tachometers out of my BJ70s in need of repair, so I was...

Has anyone had any luck with repair shops in the greater Nashville area? CS Auto is totally out of the old vehicle repair game. I have a 1984 Pickup that's got a leaky carb and is overheating. Anyone found a good person or shop these days?

Good afternoon all, I recently have an accident caused by other driver, but the insurance concluded that its 50 50% fault, hence it will cover half the cost of damage. I plan to buy and fix parts on my own rather than going to body shop in order to fix everything within the budget. However, i...
