What did you do on your 70 series today?
By IH8MUD
In the spirit of similar threads for other models, post up and tell us what you were up to today working on your cruiser. ---------- Originally posted by hotgemini Today I finally got around to fixing the dash lights in my BJ74. Of all things a bloody rat had made a nest behind the dash and chewed on one of the looms. It had managed to sever a grand total of three wires, the power feed to the dash illumination dimmer pot and both wires to the air filter restriction warning... Read more
GX460 & GXOR B.S. thread
By Roody
With the growing interest in the GX460 as the fantastic platform it is and the proliferation of its enthusiast following, just figured it's time to start a thread on here that can be a hub for all things GX460 that don't necessarily need their own thread, and for us current/past/prospective 460 owners to shoot the s***. I know there's been plenty of times I wanted to discuss a few minor odds-and-ends related to my GX that didn't warrant their own thread, or just wanted to go over some... Read more
OEM knock sensors vs aftermarket
By supafriz
Pulled a P0330 code today on my 2000 LX. Zero power loss, fuel consumption normal, ecu still allows highway speeds and overdrive, so no symptoms other than the code. Cleared code and came back within 2” of driving, so now I’m traveling down the knock sensor rabbit hole. Planning on pulling intake this weekend and simply replacing both plus the intermediate wiring harness. From quick reading I see OEM, as usual, is uniformly considered the option of choice vs aftermarket due to headache... Read more
Advice removing rear bump stop rear bolts
By Ignignot
I am having to replace my rear bump stops. Car is up on ramps and the wheels are on so the suspension is loaded. I was able to get the impact gun on the front bolts with a 12" extension but i cant get a good purchase on the rear bolts even with a wobble bit. Any advice on technique or special tools for getting the rear bolts out? Maybe its easier if i jack up the frame but leave the axle hanging? Maybe i can just set the rear air springs to the "High" setting?

Looking for A343F Output Shaft Spline Count, Diameter, and Length
By OutlawMike
Hello, My first post got moved to the Classifieds. Will try this one. I am looking for the dimensions for the A343F output shaft. Spline count, diameter, and spline length.. This is a technical question, To help answer this question, if someone has a used output shaft, I would like to buy or borrow it to do a dimensional takeoff of the shaft dimensions. If anyone knows of a transmission dismantler where I can get a used output shaft, that would be a great help. Thanks, Mike
Fan clutch nuts

“Yukon Jack,” the 1977 FJ55 (Build Thread)
By diesellibrarian
Well, it’s finally time to start a thread documenting the resurrection of this 1977 FJ55 that I bought sight unseen a couple of years ago. I found this truck on Kijiji for $2000 (Canadian $$, that is), the only glitch being that it was located in Whitehorse, Yukon, which is *very* far from my hometown in southwestern Alberta. Luckily I was able to arrange an affordable ride on a fellow’s step deck trailer, and so after a few weeks it was plopped on my driveway. I immediately started using it... Read more

HELP: Power antenna alignment & operation
By petegangies
I installed a RHD power antenna to my Aussie 80 (it's the same antenna as the US, LHD model, just a different bottom bracket) and I can't seem to get the alignment correctly. The mast seems to a bind a little. Can those with a power antenna share any images and videos of how's theirs sits (angle etc) and what it looks and sounds like when it extends and retracts please? Many thanks Pete

My son's Cruiser is experiencing random losses of power. It happen the first time last week when he was leaving his apartment at college.

Fluid leak!

Leaking a good amount of fluid can’t really tell from where. In between the oil filter and oil pan there’s a metal cover and somewhere above that it’s leaking. Can’t tell if it’s engine oil or differential fluid

Engine's out - how to degrease / clean if head is off?
By Jeff Elliott
Well, what started as a simple head gasket job has quickly spiraled into a "while I'm in there" project and I've pulled the motor. Honestly, it needed a rear main and a upper pan re-seal anyway so no biggie (hopefully). I need to pull the head and get it to the machine shop in the next couple of days and, in parallel, need to clean up the grease monster. Would love any suggestions on how to get the multiple decades of funk off the motor as well as what's left behind in the engine bay... Read more

Drag link length question
By jvincig01
Just finishing up my steering column and drag link and have a measurement question. I read here that the drag link should be 33.7 inches from the center of the pitman arm ball to the center of the tie rod. Right now mine is exactly 33 inches. It seems tight right now, but I suppose I could adjust it another .7 inches. My question is, is there a range, or does it need to be exactly 33.7? Could there be too much pressure on the pitman arm? I have a stock .67 btw. Second picture of the... Read more
62 ignition issue
By jhanger
My ignition cylinder works but the housing it sits in is jacked. It won’t start unless I hold pressure on the backside. It’s like the housing just doesn’t keep it tight enough. Ever come across that before?
