    2UZ Swap info

    By Zjohnsonua

    This is NOT a thread to compare the UZ to the LS or any other platform. Hundreds of those already exist, carry on those discussions elsewhere, please. Many threads exist in Mud asking about what's involved in swapping Toyota's 4.7L V8, the 2UZ-FE, but few of us that have done them chime in to help the decisions for the next guy, and the threads quickly become messy. Let's see about changing that. There are a handful of builds already in here that I'll add for... Read more

    Replace or Refurbish Fuel Injectors

    By togles

    I could use some help on this. I have a bad fuel injector on cylinder 3(misfire). So I am embarking on pulling the throttle body and upper intake today so I can get to and remove the fuel rail. Any recommendations on replacement? OEM Toyota Injectors are over $1200 for all 6 Aftermarket option recommendations? Send them out to be refurbished? Any vendor suggestions? I already have a new fuel filter that I had previously purchased from Toyota, going to put that in while I am doing this... Read more

    terminal repair, crimp pins

    By jerryb

    I can't find toyota crimp terminals. They don't sell open ones with a toyota part # it appears. Seems weird to me, only a repair wire is offered at $15 each. Like 82998-12690, for connector part # 90980-12094 I thought I would be able to buy new pins and crimp new wire. Nope. Does anyone know about this, or is there something I'm missing?

    Tensioner pulley seized

    By kunu

    Afternoon Gents, I’ve had a rhythmic squeal going on for about 1 week now. First noticed it on a couple cold starts 2 weeks ago, it would let out a loud squeal then go away. This week is graduated to a loud rhythmic squeal that goes away when I rev the engine. Come to find out the tensioner pulley is seized and not moving. I took it to my local Toyota dealer (for diagnosis) and they quoted me $600 for 3 hours of labor . Plus parts. I watched one YouTube video and it looks like this might... Read more

    1979 - 81 Toyota Minitruck T-Shirt Graphic

    By Mike Shull

    Hi all. Those who know me may not know that I was into the minitruck scene for awhile. As I was thinking about what I wanted to draw next, I came across a really cool mini truck owned by Brian Gobin with Hillside 4x4. I don't know if he has a mud account. Brian is a great connection and he helped connect me with the 1-ton axles that are currently under my Cruiser. I should have this graphic finalized today and I am open to suggestions. I haven't had a minitruck in quite a few years so I... 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.

    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

    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

    Rust on the LC250

    By Clemson TLC

    I did my first oil change on the 250 (previous oil changes by the dealer). With the front skid plate removed, I was shocked by the amount of rust on drivetrain and suspension components. My 29 year old 80 series has much less rust. Both vehicles are garaged when not in use. I bought my 250 First Edition in May 2024 and there could have been coating issues on the early production or maybe Toyota is just getting that cheap. This is unacceptable for a Land Cruiser. I wonder if they have... Read more

    2000 LC100 seat heater pads

    By Texasfj80

    Do any of you guys ever recommendation for a replacement heating pad for the cushion and upright positions for a 2000 Toyota Land Cruiser? My wife's stopped working and Toyota no longer produces a replacement factory heating pad. Generic heating pads are not compatible with the leather, pleading as it requires a hog ring to pierce engineer heating pad, which causes it to burn out.

    Welcome! This thread will serve as a living journal documenting my experience of owning and learning all I can about this 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60.

After probably over a decade or so of dreaming... Read more

    1HD-T Glow Plug Relays

    By CaptBeardilocks

    As I'm pulling parts off my parts truck and making lists of things to possibly replace along the way I come to the Glow Plug Relays. I haven't heard anyone mention yet but I'm fairly new to Toyota diesels. I know on my old Mercedes diesels you would do the relay every time you did the glow plugs. They were terribly unreliable. What's the general consensus on the 1HDT GPRs? Rarely need to be replaced? Do them as long as I'm putting a parts order in? There are two that I can see... Read more

    1987 FJ60 Revival

    By amjadi123

    Hey all, I'm new to the forum but not new to Toyota trucks. I've always been a gear head and currently have a 3rd Gen TRD Supercharged 4Runner and Honda S2000. I've always loved the look of the FJ60 but didn't want to buy something thats been modded or repaired incorrectly so I began the search for something I could restore myself. After reaching out to countless folks on here and on FB marketplace (and seeing them go pending/sold in a day or two), I finally found one that looked decent... Read more

    1KZ Glow plugs

    By OM617YOTA

    Alrighty, follow me on my glow plug journey. Toyota 19850-67030 - Obviously these are recommended, although expensive. Coming from 617s and $15 glow plugs, paying $70/ea had me going WTF. HKT PN, CP-22 - HKT is a Japanese brand, even OEM for some manufacturers. MUCH less expensive, so I tried them. Too good to be true, just had two fail weirdly after maybe a year, 2/4 had roughly double the ohms of new. First cold start of the day had a few misfires for a couple seconds. Not sure when the...

    Factory Subwoofer Info Guide

    By Murckman

    This topic doesn’t seem to have been covered much so I thought I would post some usable info on the factory subwoofer enclosure and subwoofer replacement. Before ordering an 8 inch subwoofer replacement for my 08 LC I searched long and hard for info on mounting depth of the factory enclosure along with info on speaker impedance. I didn’t have much luck finding info on the 200 Series but it had to be similar in respect to other Toyota’s with factory subwoofer enclosures. Based on the info... Read more
