    Leaking Timing Cover Gasket

    By rstoddard

    I recently replaced the crankshaft seal and Timing Cover gasket (OEM cork gasket with FIPG) while renewing the HB, but I just noticed some oil leaking from the bottom of the Timing Cover where the two large bolts are. I snugged those bolts up as tight as I dared, as well as the smaller bolts. Is there anything else I can do? If I continue to see oil am I looking at replacing the gasket or is there any other options? Is putting RTV around the edge a waste of time and effort?

    Head Unit buttons not working but everything else is

    By Jmurphycpa

    I have a 2004 LC that up until a few days ago has been just great. Currently the buttons on the left of the screen (Map/Dest/Menu/Display/Info/Audio) and the climate control buttons on the bottom of the screen (Temp/Auto/Off/Defrost/Climate/Recirc) along with the clock are not working. The screen comes on and shows the info screen and the climate control system works but I cannot make any changes to it since the buttons are dead. Radio works and controls from the steering will still... Read more

    Fuel Gauges Boogered

    By athensrep

    How’s everybody doing? ‘88 HJ75 with dual tanks. About a year ago, my rear tank gauge decided that registering at 1/4 tank was good enough. Filled it up to see if a difference was to be made and no change. About a month or so later, my main tank decided to follow suit and started always registering 1/4 full. Checked grounds and all looked good. I’m not sure that bad senders would do this and why both would crap the bed in tandem, but maybe. I looked and couldn’t find anyone with this issue... Read more

    1982 FJ40 restart of a stalled out 16 year project truck

    By RIDDLER

    Looking for some guidance on the parts that might be difficult to find on a 1982 FJ40? I have owned this truck for about ten years. Before I bought it a great friend owned it and sold it to me during a expensive divorce battle. The truck is I would say 99.5% complete. It was media blasted and then stored in a barn. It's time to finish this truck. It is a PS truck. the harness is in very good shape without alterations or cuts. Right inner rear fender seam shows corrosion that will... Read more

    Trailer Wiring Harness Relocation Bracket

    By Badao

    Has anyone equipped with a Class IV hitch receiver downgrade to a Class III? For those ones that doesn't comes with a hitch receiver from factory, they have a wire frame harness with a bracket for the 7 and 4 pin connector mounted to the frame, I believed the part number is 821690W010. However, I don't think they sell the bracket separately. From the information I gather, some people were able to fit a 285/70R17 into the spare tire location with either the Curt or OEM 4runner hitch, so I... Read more

    Dobinsons Bull Bar figment issues.

    By CenterHillAg

    Has anyone installed the Dobinsons Bull Bar bumper on a 2014+ GX? I bought one for my 2019 and expected some fitting work would be involved since it’s built for a Prado and the instructions are vague, but it really hasn’t been bad until I got to the point of cutting the front end to fit. There doesn’t seem to be any way to make it fit on a 2014+ front end, it sits way too close judging off the overhang of the radiator shroud above the bumper, and if you slide the bumper back to match...

    AHC pump runs 15 seconds after shutdown?

    By marksw1734

    Hello All, I have a 2000 LX470. I flushed the AHC fluid twice and she rides nicely. I have replaced all the globes and adjusted the torsion bars to get the front in spec for pressure. I have new OEM springs coming for the rear. Lately I noticed the AHC pump runs for about 15 seconds after I shut down the vehicle. I don't remember that happening before. Any ideas? Is the pump about to fail? Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Project Gonzo

    By IcutYourCruiser

    I’ve already had my first HAMOM for it, so I guess I should start a thread for my new project. The Crasin was fun, but I’m done dumping money into a “budget wheeler.” It will be parted out to provide a bunch of small parts for the new build, and some bigger parts for my other cruisers. Ironically, the 80 that I stole the axles from for the Crasin ended up on my trailer. It’s a VERY bare shell. Forklifts are great for loading it, but I had no way to unload once I get it home. Thanks to... Read more

    Who still uses their 45 for work?

    By jestlurnin

    Just wondering if anyone out there still uses their 45 for work. The story I got when I bought my RHD 75’ 45 was that it grew up on a venison farm in NZ. Well I recently purchased a hobby farm and have been using the heck outa my 45 for farm work. In fact had to use it today to jump my riding lawn mower!! I’d love to rehab it some day but not sure I can due the body work until the majority of the major farm rehab work is done!

    Abandoned 84 FJ60 gets some love, and a 4bt!

    By Thechief86

    Hey folks, my name is Eric, and I'm a 4x4 addict. I've had many jeeps, about a half a dozen Toyotas, and a few other things. I'm currently trying to acquire my first Land Cruiser as a restoration project, an 84 FJ60 that was brought to my friend's mechanic shop for repairs a couple of years ago, and then the owner went totally MIA, possibly even died. (Was told he was battling cancer). My buddy, the shop owner, says he has been trying to contact the owner and/or his family about the car for... Read more

    INSTALLING A SUPERCHARGER… AT 239k MILES… IN 2025.

    By TNFZJ

    Allow me to preface this by saying it has been a long, long journey to get to this point. Without this amazing community of 80 series owners and supercharger owners I would have been dead on the water with an incomplete kit. The freely volunteered advice, part numbers, and personal reference photos have proven invaluable. I hope that I can only continue to help others as they have helped me. If you have question, please reach out. I am also active on Instagram. THIS THREAD WILL BE PICTURE... Read more

    Minor morning surgery, or, "How I fixed my 2000 LX470 headlight connector"

    By Malleus

    Subject: Sumitomo OF250, low beam headlight connector, LX470 Back story (bear with me): my son's leaving Charlotte for Dallas today, to start his new life after college. Of course, one of his headlights is dead. Of course, I replace it while he's packing. Of course, it's not the headlight, it's the fuse (that's another story for another day). Of course, the low beam headlight connector that I didn't fix when we replaced the headlights two years ago is still nearly broken... Read more

    TPMS Reset Tool?

    By black95

    Alright group, I’ve reached my whits end with my 2020 TRD Pro’s tire sensors. They absolutely will not reset on their own, and I’m sick of going to the tire shop to get them reset. Have any of you found an affordable tool that resets them? I’ve seen them from $25 all the way to $400. I don’t really want to spend more than $200, but would like to know that what I’m buying works. It’s unbelievably frustrating how bad this system is on these rigs.

    Welcome to the 200 Series Forums: Start Here and Read First

    By OGBeno

    Hello All: I'm one of your new moderators here in the 200 section of IH8MUD.com which is, ostensibly, the world largest and most important internet-based repository of LC knowledge and community. I am a devoted Cruiser Head and own a number of running and non-running Cruisers. My main goal in the 200 series section is difficult to declare in any manner that might not come across as being overly "cautious". I say this due to the contentious nature of discussion--historically--between... Read more

    2013 dies repeatedly while driving down the road

    By CharlieS

    Hi all, I have a 2013 cruiser, with 99.9k miles. I've never had problems with it, it has been terrific. However... today, I hopped in with my wife to run to an appointment, and a few miles down the road, the engine died. The dash lighting and gauges stayed lit and active, but the engine shut off. Thinking I must have done something wrong, I stopped the car, put it in park and hit the start button, where it started right up. I drove a few more miles and the same thing happened: it...

    LRA 40g Main Tank '05+ Install

    By GTV

    As some of you know Long Range America does not currently/officially offer any fuel tank upgrade for the 2005+ 100 series. The auxiliary tank has issues which can be found elsewhere on this forum. Rumor has it the 150L/40g main tank can be made to fit and work but the process has not been properly documented. I intend to document the process here and share my findings with Aiden at LRA, they’re located just 5 minutes down the road from me. Input/advice from the Mud community is greatly... Read more

    FJ40/55 2F Exhaust Manifold Insulators (aka Heat Shields)

    By WarDamnEagle

    I hesitate to start new threads but I went through 10+ pages of threads doing searches and couldn't find information on exactly what the OEM manifold heat shields for my 1977 (10/76) FJ55 look like. I have been looking for a pair, on and off, for some time and have even bought some that will, or might, fit but after a bit of research it appears they are not correct. So I thought maybe it would be helpful for me and others to have this information aggregated - and if there is a thread out... Read more
