What if anything is available in oversizes?

I only had to bang my head once and learned quick…..

I’m currently cobbling together some parts to switch my fj heim steering. I’ve got a 22 4Runner rack, 3/4 heims, and a double shear kit. Probably going to run some dirt king clevis as I cannot find anyone else who makes a clevis that fits this rack. Anyone know of other options for the...

Hey guys I was reading along your lines already for a few weeks/ months and the forum helped me to choose the right LC model: so thanks for that! :-) Just yesterday I bought a 1999 LC, 269k miles, nicely serviced and 20 years owned by the same lady, all life in California, ... Quite some stuff...

Any ideas what the problem might be? We just put this FJ back together and the odometer does not increase?

Hello GX460 experts, I’m a 200 series owner and am trying to help my mother in law with buying a vehicle. I’ve always been very impressed with the GX460 and if I didn’t have a LC, would likely buy one. Since this isn’t for me, I want to feel confident in the reliability. I checked Consumer...

1991 FJ80 with about 214K miles, 3FE engine, in no small part by the generosity and graciousness of the folks here it's almost road ready. After I get just a few more mechanical problems fixed, the next project is to get more cool air to the back of the vehicle. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be...

Hey there cruisers, does any one have a copy of the FSMs for an Fj62. I have an 88 and have a fsm but as I was going through it it appears incomplete. Was wondering if someone could help me out.

Are there any options for the HDJ80 / 1HDT to mount an ARB compressor?

2007 6MT w/locker. My dash is lit up in the Christmas tree fashion and a alarm tone is constant. The breaks are no existent. The code reads that the "Boost Master Pump Relay" is fried. Now it's a very expensive part if it can be found. Options are to replace the relay through Toyota(1500cnd) or...

Another member on the forum board here did an Elate supercharger install. I reached out and he answered my questions and followed up with Travis at Elate. Today all but two parts have come it. Have enough to get well started into my project. I am sure more stuff will be needed as I get into...

I am in the process of purchasing this rig out of state GA - '78 FJ40 - 3FE - https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/rv5m5mfdtl8v3014nzn04/h?rlkey=a879mmnxlq0e71u0nz1ltr23v&dl=0 , subject to inspection, and it's nowhere near any of the Land Cruiser specialists I've seen listed here or elsewhere. I am...

This is kinda long. If you know me, that will not surprise you. ;) This makes the second Moose that has tried to occupy the same space as one of my Cruisers on a dark and icy road. The first time, just over 13 years ago it was just outside of Whitehorse Yukon. My FJ62 with just enough front...

I'm putting a plug out for those who are frustrated with the lack of modern music options in their LC100, and don't know what to do. Today I bit the bullet and spent $200 on the BT45-TOY adapter and CAS cable and 1 hour total for the installation. It was the best move I could have made. I...

Looking at potentially picking up a stateside KZJ95 from Europe. Its got about 300km on it but its the non-intercooler version. It over heated and blew a HG apparently and thus the current owner is looking to get rid of it. I'm not super familiar with the 1KZ yet so i'm wondering what kind of...

Word of warning: Anyone who's bought/using cheap Chinese ATC blade fuses from Amazon, Harbor Freight etc. - You know, the plastic case of 150 pieces for $10 ones ? Do yourself a favor and remove them all from your current (no pun) vehicles and replace with quality fuses that meet...

So I posted to the classifieds being green at all this forum shenanigans . It was suggested I post here with better results by 65swb45 (whom apparently I’m not allowed to start a convo with , or what I’m promoted when I try to PM or start a convo with). Again fairly new to posting on forums and...

Any good mechanics in Tucson? Looking at the registry by state, there was one shop listed and it doesn't pull up online. Thanks in advance.

I am currently working through a motor swap in my 91 80series (2uz-VVTI) and wanted to replace my ac condenser only to find it is no longer available. The condenser for the 93-97 80 series is available, so I want swap out the parts to be able to use it. I have learned since that the...

I know it's always a "concern" but as I've been looking at the a 100-series, I started considering 200-series. The 100's, if they had spent any tine in the "salt belt", seem to be prone to serious rust issues. Do the 200's have the same concern? Sure, I'd check anything I'm serious about...
