    Pic Request – LC100 OEM 18" Wheel, Tire, and Lift Setups

    By uncleneeks

    Hey everyone (first post), I finally found my 2006 Land Cruiser 100 Series in Thunder Cloud Metallic this year, and I'm looking for some inspiration and advice on tire sizes and suspension setups. I'm especially interested in seeing setups that retain the OEM 18-inch wheels. I just love the original wheels and would prefer to keep them if possible. The truck has already had the AHC deleted, so I'm trying to figure out the best direction to go with the suspension. The... Read more

    Remove & Replace Alternator

    By Ohiolc100

    So theres a lot of different options on removing the alternator on this forum. Last time I did this I pulled it out the bottom and tbh it was a pain in the ass IMO. Went to tackle it again today, I was thinking about pulling it out the wheel well but that looked like a similarly small hole as taking it out the bottom, and I thought about taking the radiator out but honestly, aint nobody got time for that. So heres what i did. Disconnect the batter first of course. 1. take off air intake... Read more

    26 GX550 OT vs 26 LX700h OT

    By MuskieNut

    I bought my 26 GX550 the end of March and absolutely love it except for the ride. I knew going in and even after my test ride it wouldn’t ride like my Expedition and thought I could get accustomed to it but I can’t. It’s just to firm and somewhat bouncy so I put a deposit on an LX700 OT in color white. I was offered full MSRP for my GX plus the dealer is discounting the LX an additional couple thousand. I have not driven the LX 700 OT but assume that after all of my research that there is a... Read more

    Canopy Corner Glass Removal Tip!

    By 7sandEights

    Maybe this has been done before but I needed to remove the corner glass gently so I lubed the rubber a bit and used some 12" paint stir sticks placed around the rubber and up to the side frame and it just slid right out with a gentle push! It was a bit of a eureka moment for me. Hopefully this can help someone out

    75 vs 79 OEM snorkel sizing

    By Matt Sierra

    Has anyone compared the size of the factory snorkel on the 75 to the ones on the 79 cab? My HZJ75 has a 79 cab swap and the snorkel is about an inch too short. I’m trying to figure out if the A pillar mounting bracket is in the wrong place or if they reused the smaller snorkel from the original 75 series cab. Also someone left me some nice holes in the pillar… Thanks Matt

    AK Troopy

    By coldtaco

    As some keen observers here have figured out, I bought Joe’s Troopy. Joe dropped it off Sunday night at the hotel I was staying at. Plan is to drive to Fit Garage in Bend, OR to cut the roof off and install a alu-cab pop top. Left Monday morning at 0445. “good morning Mr. Troopy, today is the first day of your new life, let’s do this”

    Can’t make power, getting back fires, gets worse in the rain and cold. Stumped.

    By ihoop33

    (For context, this is a condensed doc from everything I’ve told Claude trying to get a diagnosis over the last month, it’s been about five weeks of this now.) Also, over the course of the time, it’ll work better for a few days before returning to the problem. I can gun it getting on the freeway and it’ll retain normality for at least 6 hours on the interstate so far, so there’s that. Started on a Monday. Fine that morning, wrong by the afternoon. It rained hard while it sat at work... Read more

    Changing wiper blade inserts

    By dnh1

    I got my first 200 in 2009 and have driven one since then. I still find changing the wiper blade inserts to be maddeningly complicated and make me feel like I’m doing some algebra problem. Maybe it’s just my ADD. But Toyota certainly did not make this a painless process. Just did this tonight for I guess the 25th time and it’s still a mystery. Rant over.

    I bought a Whale, now I gotta build it and use it

    By wngrog

    Last month I took my faithful 1998 100 series up to North Carolina to my daughter for the summer. I did the Georgia Traverse and explored a few days and came to the conclusion that driving a modern Land Cruiser is much less stressful on long trips than all the old junk I tend to take on these adventures. I spent 3 days scheming on what to do to get my 190,000 mile, Slee “yes” package 100 series back from my daughter. Once I met her in North Carolina she vehemently vetoed my plan to... Read more

    High Beam Piggy Back? 2016+

    By SEAWOLF

    Does anyone use a high beam piggy back adapter for front spot/flood lights? I’d like to install floods on my front bumper, with an OEM style switch near left knee. So that when the switch is turned ‘on’ the floods will turn on and off with the high beams. But, if only highway driving, it can be disabled simply by turning it off using the OEM style switch. I believe this product will achieve my goal, but I’m not 100% Anyone know of a US based supplier? Looking to... Read more

    Heritage grille part number?

    By NY2LA

    Anyone have any idea how to differentiate Heritage parts when ordering online? I want to buy a second grille for my Heritage Edition after doing a less than perfect job with some custom painting. But I can't figure out how to identify the Heritage grille from all the other grilles at the various parts shops. All the parts have the same generic grille diagram.

    I have a early WP for the 1962 FJ40. I read these can be rebuild, but I cant find a partnumber. What is the trick? Order a new one and transfer the shaft and seals? Or is a set available somewhere?

    60 Series brochures and dealer literature from outside the US

    By jclark

    Also posting here because: 60s. I'm working on a photo book about the 60 Series as it was sold around the world, 1980 to the end of production. The aim is to show what each market actually got: the trim levels, the factory and dealer accessories, and how Toyota and its distributors presented the truck locally. I'm looking for period literature, mainly from outside the US: - Toyota sales brochures and catalogs for the 60, any market, any year - Distributor and dealer brochures, flyers and... Read more

    1956 GMC gets an upgrade or two!

    By Michael B

    I have started a new project. I have had an itch to build a 55/56 GMC for a very long time. Well the time has come to scratch that itch. I searched for a few months and finally found one in north east Washington state. It had very little rust, an original running drive train for a reasonable price. We made the deal and arranged for shipping. The truck arrived about 3 weeks ago. Now the plan is to go diesel with a 5 or 6... Read more

    Looking for 60 Series brochures from Gulf distributors and dealers

    By jclark

    Salaam all. I'm working on a photo book about the 60 Series as it was sold around the world, and the Gulf is one of the most important markets in it. I'm looking for period literature from the region, 1980 to about 1992: Toyota and distributor brochures for the FJ60, FJ62, HJ60 and HJ61, accessory catalogs, price lists, spec sheets, period ads and dealer photos. Material from Abdul Latif Jameel, Al-Futtaim, Saud Bahwan, Al Sayer, or any other Gulf or Yemen dealer would be ideal, in Arabic... Read more

    LX 700H - 300 Parts Number Thread

    By MRego

    Staring this one similar to the one in the 200 forum. Took my LX700H for scheduled maintenance today and the dealer (no surprise) wanted to charge me for replacing some stuff that is not in the manual. 1 - Replace cabin air filter (not in the 15k maintenance, only in the 30k); 2 - Replace engine air filter (not in the 15k maintenance, only in the 30k); 3 - Replace wiper blades - mine are still fine; 4 - Rotate tires - yes but will do in DT for free; 5 - Replace key battery - still working...

    Inductive bolt heater question

    By alia176

    I got two Hotshot units from Amazon, a 1300W and a 1500W. When I checked their power draw using a Kill A Watt meter, I noticed they draw around 350w and 500w. Is this how they're suppose to work? In case you're curious as to why I have two heaters. They sent me the 1300w instead of a 1500w so i'll be returning the 1300w today, but I wanted to run this back to back test first! Link to the item: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G51MZHFV?tag=ihco-20 Here's a video I... Read more
