According to the little paper in the visor you can do it below 50km/h, or something like that. My previous 4x4 had to roll back a bit whenever disengaging the 4H. The car is a 1993 4Runner with the 2LT
Does anyone know how much current the OEM alternator can provide while the LX is idling? I'm wanting to use a DC/DC charger to charge a trailer while the LX is idling in camp (as an alternative to a portable generator), and am wondering how much current I can realistically count on.

I recently purchased a 1999 Land Cruiser 100 series with 135,000 miles on it. The truck came from an estate, and has only been driven 10,000 miles in the past 10 years. Over all the truck has been well taken care of, always garage kept and no rust or other issues that I am aware of. I am in the...
Wanted to hop on here and see if anyone knew what could be going on with my 80. At approx 55 miles an hour while maintaining speed or coasting I feel a pretty violent lurch. Feels like it could be driveline related. My 80 is lifted 3 inches, no caster correction, but does have a front dc drive...
Has anybody modified their window switches to work when the truck is turned off? Any idea what this would take?
It would be nice to be able to easily roll windows down/up when sleeping inside without having to climb up front to turn on the ignition.
Hello, I am seeking advice about a vibration that has emerged while my 80-series LC is stopped with the engine running and in gear. At a cold strat with the vehicle in park or in gear there is no noticeable vibration. As the vehicle reaches operating temps an evident vibration develops when I...
Got my GX470 2007 towed while it was parked. Not on parking beak. About few hundred yards. Not sure exactly how it was towed. No visible damage on the car.
Should I be concerned about damage to drivetrain?
Thank you!
I have an 83 US FJ40. I purchased after it underwent 10 year restoration, that was abandoned 75% complete. The vehicle would start and ran but was not driven for approx 12 years. The work that was done seems to be a very high level. The prior owner is not accessible, so I do not have a lot of...
I figured someone would have found a way to override this with techstream but I can't seem to find anything. My wife's old 2012 Prius could make changes while driving but our GX locks us out. Anyone found a way to change that?
Working on my 93 resurrection project. The truck sat in the woods for 4 years and I now have it running and stopping, however when you put the shifter in D, the truck is starting off in either 3rd or 4th gear. If I shift to 2, it'll start in second. Shift to 1, starts in first. You can...
I was driving down the road and the engine cut off while I was driving. Battery is fine and truck has gas. It didn’t sputter it was just an immediate loss of power. The truck just died. Any ideas?
Good evening I am currently camping in Colorado and noticed the ahc line above the rear axle leaking from corrosion. It’s the 48998-60010 p/n. The line has a foil wrap to protect from heat of exhaust below it. The rust was at the edge of the foil.
Yesterday I towed a small camper here, now...

Gents....anyone have any idea what this part is? It hit me in the face while I was removing the starter on my 1984 FJ-60 for rebuild. I don't think it has anything to do with...
first off i would like to say hi to everyone, i am new to the forum. I have been on here just kinda browsing for a while but havent needed to post. Thanks for any welcomes :)
OK so lets get started. I know the AHC system goes form HIGH to Normal when exceeding 20mph. This is fine normally...
I just got a 1999 . While driving after it warms up it losses power, no shaking like a missing cylinder the motor just looses power. While on the freeway it will got from 70 down to 60 and will not accelerate unless floored. No cel showing. While going uphill at 65 today it slowed to 45. Still...
Been doing some soul searching after regaining possession of my 95 FZJ. My girl was taken by flatbed to a local dealer with highly skill LC wrench. Upon inspection, as feared, the engine needs replaced (the previous short term owner ran the poor girl with absolutely no oil).
The service...
Thought I'd change the PHH and heater control valve, but may as well swap the fan clutch, and while I'm doing that change water pump and the belts and I guess I should change the hoses that connect to the heater valve and since I'm doing that maybe just go ahead and swap the radiator and plugs...
I've put this thing up for sale a few times over the years but I couldn't really part with it when push came to shove. Well she has been sitting for a long time and I'm about to have my second kid. I don't really have the time, energy, or green backs to put into her for a while.
My question...
1999 Cruiser... ALL maintenance done (timing belt/oil changes/fuel filter etc etc...)... Was driving back home from a day trip to Carmel/Soledad area exploring or wonderful missions with family when we suddenly hit heavy traffic/accident. Wasn't hot (80F) but had the front and rear air on. While...
