2LT no power and smoking
By ccasteel
My son in law had a cracked head replaced less than 1000 miles ago. He ran out of diesel one week ago. But it ran fine for the next week. Two days ago it made a fizzing sound (almost like a pop can opening) and lost power. He had it towed to me and after sitting a couple days we started it tonight. It runs rough and barely stays running with the accelerator fully down. Grey smoke was pouring out the back and some under the hood. The drained oil has some bubbles in it, but is not milky in any...

Is my harmonic balancer gonna explode?
By theglobb
I got a real crust-bucket of a 60 for free a while back. I'm about to cut it and turn it into a flatbed pickup truck but before that, there's a mechanical issue that worries me. The crank wobbles, it has done it for the past 6,000 miles or so. Obviously this can't be a good thing but I've never dealt with this before, so I'm wondering what it may be. a video is below My guess is the harmonic balancer is failing but I'm wondering if anything else (other...

What's a 2LT worth in parts?
By DangerNoodle
I pulled the ole 2LT from my 70 for a swap, is it even worth trying to get rid of or worth much in parts? If so, what would you think fair value would be? It's definitely low compression but I have ran it. About 190k miles, from a '92. Fully dressed, 100% complete with harness. Thanks!
A journey with my boys- The Elf Barn as I call it.
By ceylonfj40nut
Been on Mud for a while. Have the addiction. Done a few projects in my driveway and on my back. Have a few Cruisers. My boys are at an age that is right to get them confident in many things in life thru wrenching. My dad taught me so much. Watching and doing alongside. Not to fear much. Dive in. Time to pass it on. This hopefully shares our story about our journey in time and all that happens in our wrenching cave. The Elf Barn. My Home garage was hard to get things done. Bought my last... Read more

No Start help please.
By outlate
***Anyone know why i can upload a video?*** Hi All, I’m having issues with my 2003 LC. I try to start it and it does the click but no start. At first I thought it was the battery because I was able to get it to start by jumping it with my jump box. So I got a new battery. Same problem. I scoured the threads about the most common No Start issue, but as you will see in my video, the security light does go away when I insert the key. I thoroughly cleaned, greased, and tightened the battery... Read more

Climate control problem. 99 lx470
By Goldcountry
I just got a 99 lx470. My climate control doesn't seem to work right. The ac will work if the temperature is set all the way down to cold. If the temperature is set one click up, it wants to put the heat all the way up and direct to to feet. It can be 100 degrees out. Does this sound like the interior temperature sensor? Is there abutting else it could be?

Rebuild of Trusty
By POPO AGIE
Today I ordered an FJ60 rear axle housing to convert to a full floating axle. After researching what it will take to modify the frame it looked like something that I have the skill set to accomplish since I did my own reverse shackle set up. After weighing the cost of different options to install a used full floating that was quite high to have to replace the shafts. The next option was to buy the kit to convert but would have RCV shafts and was almost as expensive. Then I found out I... Read more
