    Trail Tailor Offerings

    By TRAIL TAILOR

    I have been asked on countless occasions why I have product threads (racks and sliders mainly) on the other boards but not on the 60 forum. Well... not sure, I guess I "ASSUMED" most knew me and my offerings and my passion for the 60 series. Sliders, racks and custom one-off bumpers not to mention several other 60 offerings. Racks are NOT on the website as there are just too many options to consider. Please PM or email me if interested. 60 series items: Racks Sliders Bumpers TOUGH DOG... Read more

    mystery leaf springs I think for an FJ40 pre 1980

    By temahuffy

    These were with a 1978 fj40 and parts lot I bought a few years ago, I am finally starting this project and in the middle of swapping frames was going to use these but they look like they are for a larger lift that I was looking for. I was hoping for stock to 1.5" lift and these look for 4" or more of lift. I looked up the part number on the internet and didn't get much they do say made in Canada. Any Idea who made them and if they are worth trying to sell? Thanks... Read more

    sanity check - stalled and won't restart

    By slaterson

    on friday, i started mt '84 fj60, let it warm up a bit like normal, then pushed the choke in and started driving my son to school. when i got to the end of the street and stopped at the stopped sign, the truck slowly stalled. it wouldn't restart, and still won't today (monday). i towed the fj60 back home with my other truck and started diagnosing. checked spark on wire one (using a spare spark plug) - have spark. checked the fuel level in the carb bowl - it's either completely...

    Matt’s 1990 22RE 4wd pickup- The Not a Build build thread

    By Matt Sierra

    I’ve been reluctant to start a build thread for my little truck here because so many guys have done incredible things truly building their rigs. In contrast, I mostly try to fight entropy and the consequences of my poor decisions over the past two decades. I’ve had my truck (1990 RN101L 22RE 4wd regular cab, short bed) for a little over 20 years. I bought it from my uncle (the first owner) when I was in high school and basically just ran it as my daily for the next 15 years. I didn’t have... Read more

    When replacing a Carb on a 2F is one year better than another

    By devo

    I have a 1981 FJ43 and I replaced the carb because the one that came on it was shot. I replaced with a 1983 carb from an FJ60. Rebuilt it and de-smogged it. It seems to work just fine. If there was a choice to pick a carburetor say from 1976 to 1985, is one Aisan, OEM carb better than the other? Are they all the same except for linkage set up and smog ?

    Anyone in ABQ have Techstream for Toyota or Lexus ecu communication?

    By alia176

    A friend of mine has a GX460 and the rear air bags have deflated. The suspension ECU is now experiencing a "low voltage lockout" due to the battery going flat. All she needs is a techstream or any other OBD bi-directional scan tool to talk to her BECM then tell it to reset that fault code. None of the three Indy shops I called have this ability (including Toyomasters) but if you have a pirated techstream that's a fairly recent version, lmk. My techstream is on Win XP and I was able to... Read more

    97 F2UZJ80

    By thepinktaco

    Starting a build thread for my 97 that I'm in the middle of a 2UZ swap. Seeing all the old build threads from the good Pirate4x4 days and all the good info I've found on this site got me wanting to do the same for this build. Good way to keep all progression and notes in one area while sharing information between the community. Going back to 2007, 95 Tacoma I built on FZJ80 axles. Took the truck apart about 10 years ago to fix some things and its still sitting on jack stands... Read more

    1FZ-FE TRD S/C Rebuild

    By thetoyotaman

    I wanted to start an independent thread of my build page to think about my 1FZ-FE S/C build. Just to preface, this is the slowest rebuild in the world. So, I may ought to call this my turtle build. If you've followed my thread then you know I have had to source a good used head, rods, and an oil pan. I am planning on having the block and the head surfaced to ensure the most perfectly flat sealing surface for the head gasket. The machine shop says that they surface the block prior to... Read more

    Anyone using the new re-designed NWF Blackbox in their 80?

    By matzell

    NWF has re-designed the blackbox for the 80 per their website to take care of the overheating issue on the highway. I am waiting to hear back from them but wanted to see if anyone on here has installed one. I am thinking of swapping an LS and 4L80 and this would push the t-case back towards the original location that would help with front driveshaft angles. I am not looking to discuss engine and tranny options, rather see if this has been "fixed" for long highway use. I still want to... Read more

    New 80 owner here who needs help.

    By 80s4life

    New 80‑series owner here. I just got my first 96 Land Cruiser, and I’ve been wanting an 80 for a long time. The truck is in good condition overall, except for the high RPM at idle. Here’s what I’ve done so far: cleaned the MAF, checked the air intake for cracks, replaced the spark plugs, verified that both O2 sensors appear to be functioning properly, and checked the gas pedal cable. I’m running out of ideas, so I need your tips and suggestions.

    York 209 aluminum pump or Tecumseh cast iron for on board air

    By bikersmurf

    A few months back my A6 A/C compressor died after 30 years as an air compressor. Since I’d overheated to an had it lock up a few times I decided to replace it with a York compressor. After searching around I found a wrecker that said they had a York pump. Long story short it was a Tecumseh cast iron pump… I decided it’d work and should be bulletproof. I’ve been making brackets to mount it on my 350 SBC out of 1/2” plate and I’m not worried about a couple extra pounds. Until I stumbled... Read more

    R151F input shaft lengths, & 5th gear versions compatibility for R452 OD swap?

    By Chuck78

    I was wondering if the 70 series Cruiser R151F gearbox input shaft lengths were longer in more recent years vs the 1985 or 1986 thru mid 1990's models? I knew on the R150 & R151 USA model mini trucks 86-95, versus the 96+ Tacoma R150's, that the 86-95 had a shorter input shaft @ around 6.5", and that the Tacoma era R150 had a 1" or so longer input shaft @ 7.5". The only mini truck R151F models where on the 86-87 22RTE turbo 4cyl pickup trucks, and they definitely had the 6.5" input shaft... Read more

    Door Lock Actuators

    By osaga

    Has anyone successfully used a power door lock actuator for a 2000 Tundra in their 98-02 100 series? I'm having an issue with the door lock actuators characteristic of other posts I've read on the topic. They central locking works strongly on the first lock/unlock cycle, but is progressively weaker if cycled in rapid succession. After 3 or so quick cycles the drivers door lock is no longer strong enough to actuate. If I wait 30 seconds or so it will function properly again. A new left... Read more

    How good is access to cooler/fridge on a drawer system? Any real-world examples of how accessible your cooler is on an ARB Drawer System or similar?

    By Maximus924

    Hi all, I have spent hours searching different drawer system photos regarding fridges or coolers. 90% of these photos are just glamor shots of the fridge sitting inside the rig all tucked away on the drawer system. I just picked up a used ARB drawer system in the classifieds (thanks!) with the drawer slide, but its so high I don't know how accessible it would be if I bought a fridge. I see there's now a mini-revolution of slide/tilt brackets to angle the fridge down a little, as my setup... Read more

    HZJ73 vs BJ74?

    By Heretic

    I've been thinking of giving my '14 BMW X1 to my kids so that they will have a more dependable second car (they currently have a '11 Audi Q5 that is a money pit). I have been thinking about a Land Cruiser to replace the X1 as a "daily driver" (or more accurately, a bi-monthly driver as I only drive anywhere maybe twice a month). Keeping my eyes open online, I have narrowed down the choices to a '92 HZJ73 ZX and 132K km and a '89 BJ74 and 9K km (yes, less than 10K km!) w/13BT engine. Both... Read more

    Advice Needed

    By Spinedoc44

    Hey everyone, looking for a little advice because I’m torn on what to do. About a week and a half ago, I had a little run-in with one of Walmart’s concrete light poles while pulling out of the parking lot. Unfortunately, the pole won. I filed the insurance claim, and they’ve offered $4,000 toward the repairs. My local body shop quoted me around $7,000 after finding some additional damage. For some context, it’s a 2008 with 204,000 miles. I love the thing, but I’m trying to decide if... Read more
