The Ultimate 80 Series Parts Discontinued Thread (4 Viewers)

Crazy but 100 series parts are being discontinued too. You would think Toyota would keep making them awhile longer since the last year of this model is only 8/9yrs old now.

Cheers

Correct.

Stuff for LC's are going to disappear quick in my honest opinion. The move towards the TGNA is going to necessitate a restructuring of the entire Toyota spare parts supply lines worldwide.

Bummer.

All 80 series 3F-E and 1FZ-FE engine ECU's are now discontinued from Toyota.

Keep those ECU's safe if you have spares. They are now worth their weight in gold.

Hi Onur, I think I might have found a part # resource highlighting what's discontinued: toyotapartsdeal.com

1997 Toyota Land Cruiser Electronic Fuel Injection System lists
89661-60652 as not discontinued while the other ECU's are indeed stated discontinued. Can you verify if perhaps the discontinued is actually live or just well-known discontinued parts for a few items listed? My assumption this would tie into the parts system as it also lists 100 series discontinued parts.

They are discontinued. No need for me to go to that website.

My understanding- @beno @cruiserdan correct me if I am wrong, is that sites like that will say they are available and take your money. Then they go to a dealer like beno or cdan and order it, only to find out it's Disco-city, whereupon they will then refund you stating they are NLA. Sites like that are just a nicely packaged middleman....

I was picking all of the parts off of a 91 80 at the junkyard today. All the switches, visors, ECU, AFM (or MAF can't remember what it's called), igniter, battery tray, dome lights, trim pieces, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember. Anyway, it had cruise control. I thought to myself about snagging it. The throttle cables looked "newer" as they weren't cracked. Then I decided against it because the throttle cable is discontinued. Thanks to this thread I will continue not having cruise control in my 80 and not worrying about that part being discontinued.

Pretty much.

Only 8 years and the carnage begins.

It didn't use to be like that.

The only way to own a reliable (fixable) Toyota nowadays is to buy it new with a 5 year extended warranty and sell it after 4-1/2 years.

The era of driving 20 year old Toyotas is coming to an end fast.

Toyota will see to it.

If that is what toyota has planned, then there will come a day when I sell all of mine and never give them another dime. Hate to say it, but that stinks

If you want to drive your 80 for the next 20 years, I would suggest a parts car.

Or buy whatever new parts that is available as of now or snatch up good used parts and stock them =)

More out the door:

ABS rear sensors are all now discontinued from Toyota for the 1993-1994 versions.

04895-60020/60030/60040/60050

1995-1997 are still barely available.

Every time I see this thread on the first page of 80 Series tech, I get a little anxious. When I see @beno is the last poster, it's like opening a letter that you know is bad news

My garage is getting out of hand with random 80 series parts. I know I've got one rear ABS sensor hanging out somewhere, time to grab a few more.

Or, you get older, smarter, and buy a 100 series...

back in the late 90s i walked into Toyota dealer and ordered the last fj55 front quarter panel from japan.

But even cooler on the oem parts front is- you can call Rolls Royce for any vehicle they ever made (110+ years old) and they will go pull the original tree slab from a warehouse and make any interior wood trim piece with the exact matching wood grain !!! Now that is f-ing crazy. talk about parts support......jeezus

That's awesome. And I bet it only would cost as much as a new 200 Series...
