Yesterday I suddenly was not able to open my front door (driver side) anymore. It was completely stuck and I could not open it from the inside, outside or with the key.
Luckily I was able to remove the door trim from the inside. This gave me the ability to disconnect the solenoid and to pull...
What's up, everyone? Hope y'all had a great new years.
Over the past week I spent some of my down time getting some work on the rig done and was hopeful some of it would impact the notorious freeway shake/vibration a lot of us get.
Symptoms:
At about 55-65 MPH the front end shakes throughout...

Strong running FJ80 with the 3FE engine. No mechanical issues. I love this vehicle, but don’t love 11-14 mpg. Running the factory 15”alloy with almost new 31” Grabber A/Ts. Not flipping. This is my daily driver.
Very solid. Light surface rust on drive train and body anchors. I find no...
I’ve searched and couldn’t find anything on the ADS 6” piggyback res shocks. Anyone running them? Specs are a little different when comparing to their 6” remote res option (same as slee). 2” less stroke but I’m okay with that since I’m only on a 3” spring.
Mainly looking for a pic of fitment...

I just struggled to get my 33" coopers up to the swing out tire mount. Almost hurt/killed my self doing a modified weight lifting Clean and Jerk type lift :doh:

We just rebuilt a 1973 FJ40. Everything looks and runs great.
We just threw the Tire Hanger on it and it is quite heavy. It bolts directly to the bumper. Once we attach it and add the tire, the back end of the FJ sags a good bit.
Looking for remedies as I have never had this problem on...
greetings and salutations, I just got my hands on a Dakota Digital gauge system and I’m in the process of adding tachometer capability. I can either use an inductive sensor for the tooth flywheel, or the “W” terminal from the 24 V alternator. Does anybody here have any experience doing either of...

Hi, everyone!
My headlamps are both cracked on my 1994 FZJ80.
I want to replace them with new ones... But there's very few used options available. And the ones that are for sale aren't that nice and are VERY pricey...

I need a glass shop who can replace and seal the gasket on an 80 series correctly. The most recent opinion I have, which I don't trust given the source, is that the sealant that is specified in the FSM is no longer available and no replacement is available, therefore the repair cannot be...
Cheers, would this be considered a good suspension fix for a bad AHC? FYI, also has differential drop and torsion bars. Looking at an 01 w/ 280k. All input is appreciated.
