    Bring a Trailer, the good the bad and the mostly ugly.

    By theadamnc

    I recently purchased a vehicle off of BAT after seeing many others do the same to varying degree of success and satisfaction. I am a reasonable human, and I understand that my experience is anecdotal and a test group of one. However, I wanted to post this to hopefully prevent others from falling into the same pitfall of dissatisfaction as me. The first thing I want to cover is that Bring a Trailer is working for only the seller. They offer no protection and will almost do nothing for you... Read more

    Battery terminal upgrade

    By jgranthevagrant

    Looking to upgrade my battery terminals yet again. I now have two fat 1/0 cables coming to the starting battery. 1 for the alternator, and one for the winch. Potential to add more in the future would be useful. I've seen the Slee ones, and their price. Looking at some V-Gate and Koss examples. What else are people using, and what issues are there?

    If you're using a WIX oil filter read this

    By fj40z

    First off I am sure that WIX makes a great filter. So sure I put them on both my Cruisers. With that being said a faulty 51515 roached my 1FZ. A couple weeks ago before I left to go to work, I started the 80 before I went to work to let it warm up a little since it was around 20 degrees outside. Started and sounded fine as I walked back in the house, sounded fine as I got back in. I always check my oil pressure gauge and temp gauge before I drive off and both were normal before I drove off... Read more

    Fuel pressure regulator bad? '88 FJ62

    By 88TXCruiser

    I have had some issues recently with my FJ62 losing power/stuttering recently. Starts and idles fine, but occasionally when running it seems to bog down or lose power randomly. I am diagnosing via the FSM, measuring pressure with a gauge attached to the cold start injector with the "modified banjo bolt" that I found a reference to in a thread somewhere. shorted FP and B+, turned ignition to on, fuel pump runs, pressure only goes to 32-34 psi removed service wire, started and idled, pressure...

    1985 FJ60 Cold Valve Adjust

    By Cmas

    A couple questions on adjusting valves without starting engine: 1) With a 46mm socket on the crankshaft pulley nut, should I be able to turn the engine into position by hand using a 1/2 drive breaker bar and one or more spark plugs removed? 2) Having trouble eyeballing and accessing the timing mark/line in the bell housing sight hole. Any suggestions for making this easier to get valves in proper position? Can I remove the distributor cap and look for the pointing position of the rotor... Read more

    Gerry's Build thread: "If it happens again I'm buying an Abrams"

    By MongooseGA

    I've gotten enough done to my new truck that I could fill a few posts about it. For those unfamiliar with my Cruiser Saga, a nutshell: Purchased a beautiful '99 LX470 about 2 years ago. Totalled it in July when a vehicle swerved from my lane to reveal another one stopped right in front of them. RIP Gloria. The day later, I bought a 2000 LC and started building it up. 2 weeks after installing my lift and a ton of other work, I was rear ended by a dump truck and pushed into a semi. RIP Gira... Read more

    Build Thread - Basic Camping Truck

    By jrhe243

    Hey all! New to the forum and land cruisers, and wanted to put a thread together to keep track of the build. Already found a lot of good info around here and hope to contribute a bit. Background - I’ve owned way too many cars over the years of all types. First was a ‘73 super beetle I fully rebuilt with my dad at 14, and most recently a ‘70 c10 with a 5.3 that started as a body/frame I built in a two car garage. I like to tinker and prefer to DIY what I can, and hoping to do a lot of that... Read more

    Headlight Part Number Questions

    By Texas Navy

    Hey all, I have a USDM 1997 FZJ80 that took a tree to the face during Hurricane Isaias and needs new headlights. I'm researching options and have always liked the look of the quad-sealed beams (probably with some Aussie LED upgrades), but can't find a clear answer to what exactly I'd need to do it. For those in the know: - I have found some assemblies (81150-60322 for the LH, 81110-60502 for the RH). Are these the correct PNs? Do the mounting match up with the holes for my single-unit...

    My mid-life dream revival FJ40 resto-mod build

    By Wheelytech

    Hello folks! WiL here, I'm a noobie here from NW WA. I'm starting the adventure of a frame off resto-mod build. I fixed and owned a 78 fj40 in high school and 30 years ago as a broke collage student the local guy that stopped by my dads and beg to buy it won out. I always dreamed of building one and doing it right this time. So I found myself shopping for a 40. I found what seemed like a fair deal a meer 6hr drive away. I've never minded driving it's just part of the adventure. So I... Read more

    CDL light trouble??

    By Tim Herald

    So the CDL light indicator on my dash has never worked. My local 4x4 shop confirmed it locks in 4L. They tried a new sensor on the T-case, but that didn’t do it. Besides a blown bulb in dash, what else should I be checking that could cause the problem ?

    MonsterService Snorkel users - who are you?

    By kcjaz

    Pulling this out from a separate snorkel thread to get better visibility. According to this company, they have sold "several" of their 200 series snorkels to U.S. customers. I'm hoping these customers are on Mud and can provide feedback on the snorkel. Feedback would also be good from non-U.S. customers too. One of my questions is fitment to U.S. spec LC but general quality and company feedback would be good too. MonsterService

    Backup camera install - 99 LX470

    By shtbrwn86

    Finally got around to installing a backup camera in my LX, and what a process it was... I've seen a variety of posts similar to this, but I figured I would share my experience....hopefully it helps someone. First I ordered this camera with the intention of mounting it on the lift gate between the license plate lights. Turns out the lip for the lift gate covers too much of the camera, so I returned it. Then I ordered one of the ones on Amazon that integrates a camera into the light... Read more

    Greg Mushro - Vintage Offroad

    By peterman

    There are a lot of Greg Mushro ( http://www.vintageoffroad.com ) threads but I'll post this for completeness: I read them all before I started working with him on a quick-turn, eight-week project. Several friends warned me to reconsider, but I liked Greg and thought the negative feedback was just misaligned expectations. So, I wrote a very good contract that detailed the timeline/workmanship/deliverables, signed and countersigned, then paid upfront so Greg could order parts and get... Read more
