I was hoping for a simple heater core bypass on mine then it turned out to be the HG.

Check the 2 oil cooler hoses also. Small hoses down on one side of motor

Not a heater core

Now, gotta fix that darn brake light switch problem. Maybe Beno can tell me why they drill a hole in the brake lever and put a plastic plug in there so that it can fail years later? Never understood that one...

It's just one of the many parts in the conspiracy to make you buy a new vehicle!

Hey, does anyone local have some 1.25" 6-lug wheel spacers (for an 80, 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, etc.)? I have a wheel fitment / tire clearance question that I need answered, and I'd like to borrow one spacer to give my plan a try.

Thanks.

 

[wngrog]

I do. I'll put in my car. I'm in Flowood for lunch tomorrow

 

[dnp]

Awesome. Those 6 lug? They look like 5 lug in the photo

Thanks!

Anyone got an alternator laying around that needs a home? My '94 needs a new one. 230k isn't a bad run.

 

[Tuanbob]

'94 FJ80 BTW
Only thing special about it is that it's a Landcruiser. Basically stock.

 

[OGBeno]

It will be the same alternator from 8/1992-1/1998 for the US market.

If no one local has one, I do have one and can ship from ATL.

Thanks.

 

[wngrog]

I'd put a new one on.

 

[Tuanbob]

New OEM or new higher output - also more technical. How much can the factory alternator to battery cables handle well before they'd need to be beefed up if I upgraded ?

 

[OGBeno]

Don't waste your time on anything higher amperage.

80A is more than enough to power fridges, lights, winches, etc. for days on end.

 

[Tuanbob]

There ya go. I've got to get rolling again quickly but thanks for the offer to ship it - I'll let you know if I can't make it happen here soon.

 

[offr0adlim0]

I may have one on my extra 1fz. I will check when I get home and let you know.
