80 Series General Tech and Classifieds

1. I began working on the rebuild of my 1FZ this past weekend while the weather was nice. I got three main caps checked with plastigage before I dropped the bearing for the #3 cap. I ordered a new one from @beno and will resume when it arrives. Below are some pictures. I have never done this type of work, but have been reading a lot of threads and the FSM. I'll post more as the work progresses.

So while the actual opening of the crate was last week, that picture was lost so here is take 2.

Thanks to @orangefj45 and Valley Hybrids for the trans and case. I'm trying to make some room on the barn so I can get this project in a higher gear.

Looking for an ARB or other winch bumper (and winch) for my LX450 if anyone knows of one out there. Gearing up for a trip out west.

Finding used armor is tough. If you decide to go new we can have you one in just a few days. Contact @wct49 for a quote.

@offr0adlim0 what would you need shipped to 37221? And how did you end up with just 1?

Had forgotten about this little simple drawer system for the old Lexus. When the fridge wasn't in that place had a piece that went over it to make it a drawer and have a completely flat surface up top. This was before the other drawer on the left had been built and installed.

I've got a buddy down NOLA with a '97 80 and a leaky spitting 1fz-fe engine.

Any advice on who to take it to for a rebuild or where to find a swap??

Earned my official 80 series road side mechanic badge tonight when the heater control valve fractured on the way home from work.

 

[wngrog]

Yeah. You had no heat in Arkansas. I remember

Yep, it was cold as balls in there to with no heat. Luckily I bought a new control valve a few weeks ago to try and solve my heat issue and it was in the truck. But still no heat. Gonna flush the heater core with CLR and see if that helps.

My 40 doesn't need a heater becUse of all the holes in the firewall

My 40 doesn't need a heater, becUse of all the holes in the firewall, just a 12V CO detector
