I'd like to introduce y'all to Inglehoffer, my 1984 Mustard Yellow Land Cruiser Pickup. I bought it from member @gifu this week and couldn't be happier! Thank you Brian. First order of business is working on the brakes. It has front drums and they're leaking. Probably converting to 60-series discs with V6 4Runner calipers. More info and pics soon. Also, huge thanks to AJ... Read more

Hey everyone! Just swapped out my center console for an NYX Fab unit so I’ve got these taking up space in the garage. Hate to just throw it away but does anyone have a use for these or should they head to the dump/electronic recycling facility? The console is in great shape (I’m keeping the rear 3D printed cupholders though so there will be screw holes in the back) The speaker works (and is aftermarket) The CD changer might not work (has power but hasn’t been hooked up in...

Hi everyone! I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I have a 2007 L322 Range Rover that I love. I also have a 2000 Toyota Tacoma that I am in the process of selling. I do work on my Rover here and there, easy stuff, like door cables (seemingly an ongoing situation), lights, brakes, wheels, ect. I like to know how things work and I also like to save money. I am also a long time photographer, so anytime I get an opportunity to take a great shot of my girl, I do. Thanks for letting me be... Read more

I'm planning on selling\trading in my GX550 OT+ and getting a TRD Off-Road premium with the i-force max powertrain. I actually like the turbo hybrid engine in my 250, so I won't have any issues with the Taco variant. The reason is for transporting dirtbikes\mtb easier and for general truck duties. The GX is the least modified of the bunch so it will be easier to let it go. A couple questions: How is the build quality on the premium Tacomas? Is there enough rear leg room for adults in the...

If I'm swapping the rubber fuel lines on my 1hz how do I purge the air out of those lines when I get it all fired back up? Do I just have to wait for it to push through?

For those of you that went full bonkers on your restoration, how did you go about zinc plating the door limit hinge? There’s a pin that has been crushed over the keep it located. If you removed it for the plating service, what did you do to duplicate that press fit? Or did you simply not do anything and plated as it is? I was thinking of turning a bolt down and using a split pin to hold it in place I am not creative enough to think of anything else.

Hello, My vehicle is a 2014 Toyota Land Cruiser J15 3-door 3.0 D4D 190 hp. The vehicle is currently fitted with road tires. I would like to fit four Falken Wildpeak A/T4W 265/60 R18 114T XL tires (Falken part number 28844854) plus one spare. This tire model exists but is unavailable in France. It's not a manufacturing/size/fictitious part number issue, or a French stock shortage. Apparently, it's not distributed by Falken in Europe. If anyone knows how to obtain them, I would be very grateful.

Coming up soon to replace tires, wanted to get some advice which of the following are quietest based on your experience. I don't off road much and no rock crawling. Occasional mount terrain and sand gravel and some snow at most. 285/75/R16. Don't prefer Michelin defender since it's not aggressive of pattern and wearability. Narrowed down to these four : Ridge Grappler Falken Wild Peak AT 4W Toyo Open country AT3 Goodyear Duratrac

After consulting with my 12 year old son and considering friends and family members I have decided to put this under a build thread. I purchased a 1979 FJ 40 in 2010 and sold it in 2016. Always regretted it. My wife surprised me Christmas 2019 with a 78. Yes she ( my wife) is AWESOME. My brother (who is awesome also) was involved the whole time. He drove down from Birmingham and surprised me by driving it to our house. I quickly named it the Iron Yak, a name which comes from the book... Read more

There is apparently a reason that dealers are so eager to throw you that Carfax. It definitely DOES NOT tell you the whole story. Here is what Car fax told me happened at 83,000 miles

2017 200 series here. I’m looking for a tuner that will allow me to monitor drivetrain parameters and compensate for gear ratios and tire size changes. I have an audio and screen unit from a 2008 200 that won’t display info on screen. Touching the screen still controls , but no visual cues… already replaced screen. Any companies rebuild the Audio Units?

My first memory of this 1976 FJ55 was at age 3, when I turned over the keys left in the ignition while my brother and I waited for our mom to return from shopping, and it jumped the parking embankment and came to rest inside the shattered plate glass window of a laundromat. My final memory of one of the last times it was driven is of my dad reversing a length of cable to pull the 1-ton dump truck filled with gravel that I was driving in winter from a ditch across a county road. In between... Read more

I'm wanting to beef up the steering linkage and am unsure what's available to do so. been reading a lot but it gets me goin to rabbit holes I'm not wanting to venture into. Basically this (new to me) FJ40 has a 4" lift (springs/shackles). it doesn't look like they (previous owner) changed any of the steering except for power steering after doing so. the steering is sloppy and wondering a lot. is there a kit available to this i can get or if i have to piece it together that's ok too. would...

Can some one tell me how fat the 4 grommets are that attaches the bezel to the front bib? Is the idea the bezel should sit a certain distant from the bib? Thanks for the help!

Trying to find a replacement fuel pump for my 1998. The denso kits and replacement pumps have been on backorder for months (now believe they may be discontinued per denso's site). I've had multiple orders canceled for both the kit (950-0107) and the individual pump (951-0003) from places that originally stated they had one in stock. The pump kit (950-0210) that 2006-2007 folks use will not drop into a 1998. Other than OEM toyota ($300+), what are folks having success with? Anyone tried... Read more

I'm replacing my carpet and taking advantage of having everything out of the hundy. Figured I'd take some pics and help any others that find themselves wanting a quiter cab. There's plenty of debate on this but I come from the car audio world where this is taken extremely seriously and I feel like those guys have it pretty nailed down with some science/emperical results to back it. Most important take away: The gold standard is a 3 layer approach. CLD, CCF, MLV. And if you need... Read more

Good morning all, I've been driving my "New To Me" 07 100 Series Land Cruiser since May with no issues at all. Last week the three lights mentioned above all lit up.

Current - C1201 - Engine Control System Malfunctions Current - C1223 - Malfunction in Antilock Brake System Control System Current - C1241 - Low Battery Positive Voltage or Abnormally High...

Lads/Lassies, Last year, while recovering from GBS, I had plenty of time to think. Normally, nothing good comes out of my boredom, but I decided to re-open my business and expand to my true love, audio. Got my LLC in Nov, website launched about two months ago, got my vendors lined up, 3d printer station and CNC router along with a dedicated resin/fiberglass molding/sanding station which should be up and running by summer or so. I am a dealer for CDT, Audison, Hertz. Morel and Audiofrog may... Read more
