Thanks Dan,Warren: We (Joe @ Slee) used the air filter dash light for my aux tank. Good idea on using it!
Therefore it was used on an LC, not an LX, so Les will have to check if the lamp is available.

FYI: On a typical Nevada or Utah 2-3 week trip involving hundreds if not a thousand miles of dirt (during the dusty months of course) I typically need to replace my OEM filter element, or at the very least blow it out thoroughly, 2-3 times; no dorkel though.
dude, that's because your fender liner is trimmed out creating a perfect path for dust that your tire kicks up to be sucked into the intake.
That's cool. I think I might even see brackets on the airbox to accommodate the sensor. However, I might be waiting a long, long time to see that $76 light to glow! I'll check my dash to see if the light is there anywhere. This reminds me, I still have to wire up the RR diff lock light (pressure activated).IIRC in some markets (except USA) 98-02 FZJ's & 'UZJ100's come with a blocked air filter sensor "Sensor, Air Cleaner Warning, 89593-60040 and I expect the wiring is there ready for you to connect one of these directly into your loom.
The diesels run the 89593-60030, which is available from trademotion for $76USD
Of course! I'll get to work on that.EDIT: maybe i now qualify for the triple washer nozzle squirters!!!
Here's those dust relief valves. They were full of clumped sediment when I received it. In the last pic, you can see how the valve opens... I'm guessing when there is positive pressure in the system. There are two metal rods that keep the valve from collapsing under vacuum.

Les asked me about getting him an airbox many years ago, unfortunately I'm about 500kms from the wreckers..................., he then probably tracked you down..........................and then of course maybe me and 100TD and co can find them at the wreckers.
cheers

So then yours probably wont have the inbuilt holes(protrusions) for the sensor hoses as I think they discontinued them on the gassers? Easy to drill a couple though if you have the lamp on the dash.Thx. Fyi, my airbox is from a 2004.
$70.19 from Toyota Accessories - ToyotaPartsBarn.com, and of course, it is OEM, so worth the wait!That's cool. I think I might even see brackets on the airbox to accommodate the sensor. However, I might be waiting a long, long time to see that $76 light to glow!
Open on one side, like the first pic.Thanks uHu! I think I understand now.... does your filter element look like the first pic.... only open on one side? The FZJ80 filter, is open on both sides (like 2nd pic). If so, it sounds like the 80 filter wouldn't be a direct drop in... though a block off plate could make it work. Since the filter isn't changed very often, I might as well get the correct HDJ100 filter.
I have also heard the Donaldson were great.... however, I'm having difficulty finding that Donaldson part number available in the US. Maybe I'll try giving them a call directly.
I think the upper seal might not be a problem since those three pegs on the bottom already support the base of the filter? I'd have to look at it again. It felt snug when I trying to move the 80 filter through the tuna can opening.
Edit: Just called and they are closed for the weekend. Will have to try again Monday.
The problem with OEM is they let too much dirt through, you can wipe it away on the inside of the filter.100TD and petrol V8 aircleaner

There is a lot more paper in the Toyota filter than the Donaldson.
