    Lifted Alignment....

    By Simplespirit

    I have an 09 with OME lift, OME UCAs, OEM 18x8 +60 wheels, 3/4 spacers (taking offset to +41), and 275/70R18 tires. The 1" KDSS max relocation kit has also been installed.

    High beam wiring?

    By RiverRatMatt

    I'm want to put two of my auxiliary front lights onto my high beam circuit. The question I have been pondering, however, is where to wire them so the high beams turn them on. From what I understand, the high beam lights are used as the DRLs, just run through a resistor to lower the brightness. When the high beams are turned on, the resistor is bypassed somehow. I'm assuming I can't just wire the relay for the aux lights into the high beam fuse, because it would always be on (aside from when... Read more

    Chronicles of Bonnie and Clyde

    By greenbeast

    Thought I’d keep it simple and it couldn’t be more appropriate. We just got home with Bonnie and we couldn’t be happier. 1000 miles, 4 states and around 16 hours driving back home we are so excited. Have to give Jim and Bonnie a big thank you. Words don’t express how thankful we are. Bonnie told Kim she wasn’t quite ready to let it go which made it difficult for Kim and I. Wind came up taking pic of Jim and Bonnie before we left getting some dust in my eyes and I’ll be damned if it... Read more

    Self leveling trailer???

    By Ditcherman

    Question for the more experienced around here… The TL;DR: how much benefit would there be to a trailer that self leveled - side to side - while rock crawling/off roading? Some conversations in the hardcore corner about trailering on Rubicon and Poughkeepsie got my wheels turning here. I’m also curious as to how many accidents are caused by a trailer tipping over on an obstacle, or going over an edge and pulling the truck with it or at least causing a very precarious situation? Would love... Read more

    Minnesota FJ40 theft and recovery and… going back to 2013 - A long saga moving towards the next chapter.

    By jsweetd

    Hey everyone I have been a member for awile but never participated much. I appreciate all of the questions answered and problems solved from other owners experience. Here we go. Growing up my dad bought a 1979 FJ40 when I was 14 years old. He taught me how to drive manual transmission in St Paul along a dirt road that was destined to be the future interstate 35E which cuts through St Paul. The family loved that truck, my dad as I think all of us made it part of his identity. My sister and... Read more

    ID a part

    By Code54

    Today I noticed my heater is not putting out much heat, so I was looking under the hood and noticed these two unhooked connectors. I realize they don’t have anything to do with my heater issues, but I also have no idea what they go to. They are basically rubber boots with an electrical connection in the bottom that runs to a wire loom. Any ideas?

    Pic Request - Stock LC200 with 275/70/18s on stock wheels

    By awdbandito

    Hey all, I know this has been beat to death in the past, but I'm having problems finding or figuring out what I'm looking at. I just picked up a 2013 LC and it's running stock tire size. I want to go up as tall as possible on stock suspension without adding wheel spacers. I prefer my tires to stay within the wheel wells so I don't throw mud on the sides. It looks like 275/70/18 is what I'm left going with. Can anyone post a picture of their stock truck on 275/70/18s for me to reference... Read more

    295/70/18 is a tire size that you should consider*

    By tbisaacs

    * for your LX After nearly 15k miles running 275/70/18 Cooper STT Pros — I've concluded that I'm not a mud terrain kind of person. But that's another story. Today I installed (5) 295/70/18 Falken Wildpeak AT3W's on my LX and they fit like a glove. Seriously, I don't know why this size isn't more popular. There are so many brands at this size vs 285/70/18. Mounted the Falken's measure right at 33 3/4" tall and just over 11.5" wide. I have zero rubbing and they are oh-so-quiet compared to... Read more

    Show and Tell / Installation Tips: Bought an AliExpress Instrument Cluster [2003 LX470]

    By tmoneyallday

    My instrument cluster was starting to fail and I was contemplating having it repaired by Tanin Auto or buying it new. I struggled to find any new ones for less than $1200 and TaninAuto wanted about $800 for the refurbishment. I found this ( https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256...t_main.16.75a818029S31Zz&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa ) after checking every 6 months and this one finally showed up. I YOLOd it and bought one.

    PSA - Rear Locker Actuator

    By Uncle Meat

    Just a reminder to check and make sure that your rear locker vent tube is not clogged and breathing properly. I just replaced mine because of corrosion due to the end of the breather tube being clogged. I had no idea that the breathing end was located between the body and frame at the left rear wheel well. Pics are attached. I pulled it out a tad so you can get a visual. The front actuator vent is more protected. Now I need to check the CDL actuator. I'm assuming it has a vent as well... Read more

    Long Travel AHC

    By TeCKis300

    Probably no surprise, but I've been a big proponent oh AHC. Damping always dialed in regardless of load. Large fluid volumes and remote accumulator damper that stays cool with extended off-road travels. Actively pressurized for long term performance and durability. Combined with unique traits of adjustable height, load handling, and multi-rate springs for anti-brake dive and handling, there's a lot going for it. But where does it come up short? Suspension travel due to shock length... Read more

    Infamous Crank No Start

    By mousecruizer

    2000 Lexus Lx470 205k Miles Hey y'all. I've been having an issue with my 100 series lately that I just cannot figure out. Couple days ago it would crank strong but not start, so I read forums and tried replacing 20amp fuel fuse under the hood and that seemed to fix it... for a bit. After that I left it for a couple days to replace the fuel filter just because I figured it was time it needed a new one. I know it has good fuel pressure because fuel was spewing out when I took the line out... Read more

    By schuy2147

    Just starting a thread to document the progress of my new cruiser. I’ll be installing a Dobinsons 2” IMS suspsension lift along 33x10.50’s on factory wheels. Took all 4 wheels off to take to tire shop tomorrow along with the spare which looked to be the original stock tire. Surprised to see chrome under all the dirt!

    Un cuento de dos cerditos

    By WrongsideDaily

    I guess this is actually a tale of four Pigs if we really circle back to the beginning. The first time I'd laid my eyes on one I had to be about six years old. I remember my father telling me he'd seen one on campus at UT and that he'd left a number and note expressing interest in purchasing it. At this time he had two 40s and we all know they're a gateway drug. About a year later, I'm riding my bike around the neighborhood after school and realize my father is late. Like, WAY late. And...

    Travelogue - a speech, movie, or piece of writing about someone's experiences while traveling . Merriam-Webster @sggoat (Gary) suggested this... and off we went! What is it? In his words: "What if---there was an FJ40 cross-country expedition--one that ran from North to South, East to West and diagonally across this great country--it may not need a constant bunch touring the whole Continent, but maybe a relay of sorts-a group of Oregon 40s...

    Spotted

    By Ironclad

    I know there’s one of these threads in the main 60-series forum and likely most of the other forums, but I couldn’t find one in the Bay to Blue Ridge community of cruisers spotted locally/regionally. Figured I’d give it a go because I see them frequently in the greater Richmond area. Would be cool if other members of this group add to the thread. Spotted this one today at a local mechanic while walking my dog. Great bumper sticker. I also spotted a green 80-series but couldn’t get a photo... Read more

    AHC Giving a Hell of a Time to me.

    By Sarmadsaeed

    I have a Land Cruiser 100 series. 1999 model. 1HD-FTE. Japanese import. The AHC is giving me a hard time. The ride is really harsh/stiff and i can feel every road crack and brigde joint inside the cabin. The vehicle is not bouncy. Flexes fine on speed bumps. Following things are already done: All 4 Accumulator Replacement All 4 Accumulator Valve Assemblies AHC ECU Height Control Sensors and link Rods Bleeding done 3 times. After doing all this. The ride is still stiff. The comfort to... Read more

    Work Truck Build

    By White Stripe

    Bought a 2000 silverado. 3/4 ton 6.0 truck 2wd. It used to be a county truck. I suspect the 4l80e is newer. Has iron heads. Cats are cut out. Drove it 30 miles from where I got it, runs surprisingly well. Need to give it a good look over before I really drive it any further. Just going to document my some basic baselining.
