    By Romer

    Looking for any idea or suggestions on how to get Toyota involved so this can be fixed under warranty This failure has occurred twice, first in Dec 19, 2025 and again on Sept 23rd 2026.

Everything comes on, but there is no crank to the starter, no dash error codes and nothing else amiss except no crank, no clicking, no sound at all I can tell from the starter... Read more

    Meet "Billy." Pappy's TRD-OR 6MT

    By pappy

    I guess it's time to introduce my Gen4. Long story getting this truck. For two months I attempted to get my local dealers in Albuquerque and Santa Fe to find what I wanted. They were only interested in selling me what I didn't want off their lot. So, I started sending out queries out-of-state. Durango Toyota to the rescue. They found what I wanted in 2 hours! Problem was, it was schedule for production, and had not been built. Truck was ordered Jan 8th (which happened to be my late wife's... Read more

    Novato Cars & Coffee 1st Sun. of Mo.

    By SIZZLE

    There’s a great Cars and Coffee in Novato the first Sunday of every month at the Vintage Oaks Shopping Center. There’s usually several hundred cool cars and trucks. Everything from hot rods to exotics to 4x4s. I know there are some awesome Cruisers and Toyota trucks in Marin and Sonoma and it would be great to get some more Yotas out there. I’m out there most days in my anthracite 3rd Gen 4Runner or my white 2nd Gen Tacoma. I’ll be walking around with a cup of coffee and my... Read more

    Alternator Upgrade and fusing

    By jgranthevagrant

    Further to my post about 2 alternators and their output, I'm looking at upgrading from a 60A alternator (stock on a 1990 22RE) to a 140A or 200A alternator. Those appear to be two of the options available that I can find. For those that have done an alternator upgrade, what fusing changes were made, if any? FWIW, the alternator manufacturer is saying to NOT put a fuse between the alternator and battery. If I'm reading my wiring diagram correctly, Toyota has several fuses in the... Read more

    Flashing 4Lo and CDL indicator lights

    By CharlieS

    I feel like I've read about this here, but my search only found similar, not the same issues. This is on my 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser. What has changed lately - it stays parked a lot more these days since commute in a different vehicle. I might use it once a week or less (I also have an 80 that I use on weekends). At times when I start the 200, I get a flashing 4 Lo and CDL warning lights. Usually, if I shut the motor off and restart it goes back to normal (no flashing lights). Something... Read more

    1FZ-F Replacement Head

    By utedaddy

    Hey y’all, Long time lurker, first time caller. I’ve got a 1997 FZJ75 pickup from the UAE (I’m in the US) and it’s got the carbureted 1FZ-F. A month ago I blew up the engine and I’m working on a rebuild. I was hoping to rescue the head but it saw a lot of heat and started melting in spots and I need a replacement. So here’s my question: Can I buy a new 1FZ-FE replacement head from Toyota (p/n 11101-69107) to replace my carbureted head (p/n 11101-69096)? Are there any differences between... Read more

    2011 LC200 — faint steering-column click only when turning counterclockwise

    By Mineral

    I have a strange steering-column noise on my 2011 Land Cruiser (~140k miles) that my mechanic and a longtime Toyota tech have not been able to identify. Curious if anyone here has experienced something similar. The noise is a faint click/creak that appears to come through the steering column. The unusual part is how repeatable and directional it is: Turning the steering wheel counterclockwise/left, it clicks at certain specific steering-wheel positions. Continue turning left and...

    Rebuilding Toyota Engines

    By nab856

    This engine needs rebuilding. It will take a while. I'll post the progress! Background: I bought a 4WD 1987 Toyota extended cab pickup truck with 22re engine when I was in college. It ran but wouldn't pass county emissions. After a summer of tinkering, a top-end overhaul got it to pass emissions. This truck's odometer was broken when I bought it. The odometer read 716,000 miles. How many actual miles is unknown. These Toyota pickups are good, tough trucks but were designed when the speed... Read more

    New-to-me LJ78

    By tdbeasley

    Hey there! Just purchased a 1990 LJ78 with the 2LTE. These forums have been tremendously helpful for figuring out if I wanted to buy this thing and what ownership may look like. So, thank you! My background is in Datsun stuff so it’s neat to see how builds take shape on the Toyota side of things. So far the truck has been a treat to drive. I purchased it on Vancouver Island and I’m told it was first owned by a lady in Comox who had it serviced regularly in Ladysmith. I believe at Flying... Read more

    GX460 Suspension Opinions

    By dryfly

    Good afternoon folks…it’s been a minute since my last post. We currently have an ‘18 GX460 and the stock shocks/coilovers are starting to show their age. This one has adjustable suspension as well as airbags. I’ve lifted and modded several Toyota 4x4’s over the years, but this ones different being adjustable. Obviously the adjustment controls will not function anymore if I go aftermarket, would you consider this a “con” if you were searching for a GX? Kinda stupid of me to be concerned... Read more

    Please tell me otherwise….think I just blew my head gasket

    By FIDO96

    My 97 FZJ80 with 247K miles is my daily, and by now I think enough of you know it’s very well rehabed. I have documents showing HG replaced by Toyota of Monroe @ 176K so I know it’s been done once. Today on my way home from work, I stopped at a stop sign and noticed a very rough idle / coughing. I put in park and RPMS were bouncing from 400 - 1000. Gave it some gas and was able to make it the 1000’ to my house. The engine would hardly idle, and I’m getting a strong exhaust smell and...

    FJ45 question about replacement Bed

    By Wadesters

    Topnault has this steel bed replacement available. Says it fits 79 - 84. Other than mounting position what could the difference be?? I believe 79 - 84 only came in long bed versions. I know there have been issues with some of their parts fit and finish but not many options for a replacement bed. Really don't want aluminum.

    KDSS rear link arm (RockAuto deal)

    By GrouchyTech

    Toyota p/n 48830-60050 The Toyota part is showing $446.77 list but can be found for around $300. However, this Moog part from RockAuto (Moog p/n K750773) is… $3.92 (yes, three dollars ninety-two cents). As good as the Toyota part? No, probably not. So I bought three. Enjoy.

    Changed oil on 2008 j200 after 5k 229k on the odometer. I use 5w-30 Toyota oil. Found metal in the drain pan. I had the oil tested by black stone on the last change, no issue noted.
