    electrical no start issue

    By wpns4l

    1993 FZJ80 So starting two weeks ago i started experiencing a no start issue after driving the vehicle with no issues for 5+ years. Vehicle would crank but not start. Had no CEL light so I started with the fusible links which passed the continuity test. Tested the EFI Main relay and it passed. Then i noticed the EFI fuse was really loose. So i squeezed the female end tighter and replaced the 15amp fuse with a new one and I had my CEL light back and was able to start the vehicle. The car is... Read more

    Is this 470 too rusty?

    By rustygxoahu

    I'm in Hawaii where the air is humid and salty. This 2004 GX470 I'm looking at has only 150k miles and seems well kept but some parts of the frame are pretty rusty. These images are the worst parts of the rust. It also looks like the steering fluid is leaking. What do you think... is $7k too much? The timing belt is also way overdue but there's no ticking coming from the engine and I would get this done asap.

    Heater cable repair options

    By Tomba

    So I have a cable that was used for throttle or something else, it was long enough to sue for the heater cable. I practiced making the loop for a fj60 heater valve on the wire end, then after doing the same process of heating the wire letting it cool then bending, I tried it to the correct length and it broke and now its too short. Aside from attempting to soldering a piece of wire together is there another option for fastening a cable to this knob? trying to avoid buying one. SOunds like... Read more

    Auto body Guidance

    By MudDauber

    Guys, A friend of mine suggested the sty might have some good suggestions on how to proceed on some body work. I have a 94 Toyota Pickup 4x4 DLX that's my daily. On Friday I hit a doe on the way to the office, didn't see it coming, poor lighting and she came from directly off the driver's side. We collided at maybe 30 mph. I'm not a body guy, played with bondo on my pig but have no metal experience. I love the 94 truck and believe I may be able to re work the fender My initial plan... Read more

    Bradze’s GX 470

    By bradze

    Hey everyone, I’m retired army and disabled. I have a neurological disease brought on by the burn pits in Iraq. Thanks Uncle Sam! Anyway I’m a car guy and of the 20 or so vehicles I’ve owned, this one is my favorite. Super reliable V8, can go just anywhere, extremely comfortable and best of all no car payment! I paid $6500 for it with 273k. Currently at 287k. I bought it because of maintenance done by previous owner. He even helped me with a few mods. I did have to put on new front... Read more

    Looking for recommendations to get seats reupholstered in Northern Colorado

    By Moderator

    Anyone had their LX seats reupholstered in Colorado? Cost estimates? I'm still kinda on the fence about it, but since I plan on driving this vehicle another 15-20 years, I might as well consider getting some new seats. I also have an old Acura MDX and my solution on that one was just some duct tape. Honestly, it hasn't bothered me. The LX is our main vehicle so I thought I'd make an investment in a cosmetic upgrade.

    Meet "Billy"

    By pappy

    Nope, not after a farm animal. Named after Capt. William Dampier, a 17th century English explorer, naturalist. The first person given credit with sailing around the world three times. A fella that introduced avocado and the making of guacamole to Europe. His adventures were an inspiration for Jonathan Swift's book Gulliver's Travels, and his natural history writings inspired Darwin. He is also considered to be a "pirate who loved plants." I said it in 2021 after my Canada trip, and again... Read more

    Battery light keeps coming on?

    By Everhix

    The battery light on my 62 comes on irregularly when driving. Sometimes I can drive for 30 minutes to an hour and no light comes on. Most times after about 15 minutes of driving the battery light comes on. I checked the battery. It seems good and it has always started right up in the nine months that I’ve had this cruiser. Anyone have an idea what this could be? I have done very little to the electrical other than swap out the lights for LEDs on the instrument panel. Thanks for any ideas.

    Should I add a charcoal canister to my 1968 FJ?

    By SD68FJ40

    I recently bought 68 and the cab stunk of fuel and grim. I fixed a small fuel leak in the cab, and also replaced the seats added new carpet flooring etc. The fuel smell has improved but not gone away completely. Charcoal canisters came on the 1969 so I’m debating of adding one. But I’ve heard mixed feedback if this will actually make a difference in the cabin. Any recommendations?

    78 Mustard Yellow FJ40 #Tiger40

    By greenEFSI

    I recently acquired a mostly original mustard yellow 1978 FJ40 with 52k original miles from my Father-in-law. It was purchased from the original owner in 1980 and parked for good in 1997. In Oct 2021 he towed it over to my house so we could get it running, but quickly realized he no longer had much interest in it after we drove around the block. He loved the FJ40 but did not want to put any more time or money into getting it back on the road. After owning it for so long, keeping it in the... Read more

    Thrust washer help.

    By arlenroy

    Flushing out rear end and replacing rear brakes, I find this thrust washer in the diff housing. I've read every thread I could find, it goes behind the driver's side spider gear, easiest way is to rotate it until you can drop it in from the top, behind the spider? I'm just not seeing how that's possible, I see a C ring facing in but solid shaft behind it? What am I doing wrong?

    Pre Cleaning Parts removal

    By sanscruiser

    I have an 04 with a moderate amount of surface rust and it is going to get blasted with the dry ice method in a few weeks. I plan to remove some parts myself that are easy to do, so I can ensure the technician can get to as much of the underbody as they can. Remove step rails, spare tire (already removed), skid plate...I guess if you were going to do this to yours, and its a one-time thing, what else would you remove yourself? Thank you in advance, kindly.

    Quick Question for the Charlotte Folks...

    By AwngCrush

    I just bought an '08 570 and I'd like to find a reliable shop where I can get some service done. I just want to do the usual "day 1 used car" stuff (full fluid changes, etc) as well as getting some minor work done. I used to use Toyota Techs, but Johnny retired, so I dont know if they are still as good as they used to be. I also like H&H, but they seem to specialize more in the older stuff. Any suggestions?

    #27 red and white 55, full body restoration.

    By kelly saad

    I have been working on this part time for a little while now and decided to start a thread on it. This 55 looked pretty clean, and maybe it is compared to some others, but there is still a lot of rust! Many parts I will fabricate myself. The project: 1. Disassemble vehicle. 2. Strip paint to bare metal. 3. Mount on rotisserie. 4. Remove floors where rust is obvious and replace with new steel. 5. Fabricate new lower fender skins and replace. 6. Fabricate new lower door skin replacement... Read more
