Quartz Clock Advice

The replacement quartz clock in my 66 has been acting up. It has been running flawlessly for the past three years. Recently it has stopped and will restart if I unplug and then reattach the power. ...

Ok, so the title may be a little bit deceptive, but I need a place to put a build thread to keep me motivated. This is a hemi superbird, but it's a clone, and it's no restoration! I love the superbirds, but the stock look just leaves a ton to be desired in my eyes. This will be a little different and the purists will puke, but hey, whatever. Here's what I have in mind.... All black, street legal, 1970 Plymouth Superbird All aluminum hemi - cubic inches yet to be determined All steel... Read more

Scarface.....won't watch it again, that's for sure. Glad it was DVR'ed so it didn't take 4 hours to watch it at least and that's all I have to say good about it. Thought I had seen it years ago but don't remember seeing that mess years ago.

I am compiling list of VINs for our 1979 300s. I know there are some registries out there already but most don't seem to be updated or edited much in years. I pulled about 50 VINs off of one that was last edited in 2004 and will build off of that! Even if you know of one in a junk yard or sold yours and know where it is, let me know! If everyone can send me the following information I will add you to my list! You can PM me or post it in this thread. 1. VIN 2. Name (optional) 3. City & State... Read more

Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. After several months of quietly reading IH8MUD, I finally joined and I’m excited to introduce Silvy, my 2009 Lexus LX 570. I grew up in a Toyota family and have loved Land Cruisers since I was a kid. For the last six years, I drove a Subaru Crosstrek. It was great when it was just me and my dog, but now that it’s my wife, me, and our two dogs, we were using every square inch for camping trips, winter adventures, and road trips. That... Read more

Hello all! I'm the excited (first time) owner of a new old 2007 GX470. I've never owned a 4x4 before and would describe myself as "mechanically interested" but a complete n00b. I enjoy reading up and learning, but I can't do much work myself and certainly don't know all the considerations that go into making parts/configuration choices. I purchased this 470 knowing the rear differential was almost certainly shot. I was able to confirm it with a local mechanic yesterday. I've seen these... Read more

Does anyone have any feedback or recommendations on a behind-the-seat windscreen for a base coupe?

Hey all, hoping someone here has seen this before. I've got a 2026 Carrera GTS coupe (CPO, ~2,600 miles, totally stock) and over the last three weeks it's thrown a red "Engine control error – Park...

As many of you know, I’m not new to the Land Cruiser game; this is actually number 7 in my collection. Looking back on my ownership, I realize how blessed I’ve been to have had so many truly badass Land Cruisers. Each one came with its own love-hate relationship, but every single one left its mark. You can check my signature for the other build threads, and below are some pictures of my previous rigs. I was lucky enough to have my first car at 16, a 1985 FJ-60 Land Cruiser, and I was...

I have gathered information from various sources and used some calculations to estimate the most probable birthday of an FJ40 (month, day, and year). While I can't guarantee complete accuracy, I believe that my research and calculations are accurate to within a day or so. Because of fluctuation of production numbers and few other factors some months are more accurate than others. If you're interested in finding out your FJ40's most likely birthday, feel free to send me your VIN# or a... Read more

Well, it's about time I start a build thread, I have mostly stuck to a few one off posts on some things that were installed or fixed, and asking a few questions here and there. I have both a 60 and an 80, with the 80 more recently taking up my time as I made it road worthy. If you search my post history you can see some of my work, nothing special, but also somewhat interesting. Now, I'm finally taking on this roof removal and rust abatement project. I feel like it's finally time I can... Read more

I have my home charging set to begin at 12:01 am. Last night I got message that charging started at 11:01 pm. I thought that the car had not adjusted to the change from daylight savings time. However, the clock in the car showed the correct time. I then unplugged, turned scheduled charging off, set it for 1:01 am, turned it on, and then and plugged it in. Message appeared on the screen the Charging is Scheduled. I went to bed. This morning charging started at 7:00 am. when my wife walked... Read more

I've been looking into what it would take to retrofit Hands-On Active Drive Assist (ADA) into my 2026 Rebel and figured I'd start a thread to see if anyone else has been researching this or has already started working on it. My Rebel already has Adaptive Cruise Control, LaneSense, Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, and the existing CADM module for those features. From what I've been able to gather, a decent amount of the hardware should already be there, but I'm trying to... Read more

Hello all, I have a very odd situation where my daughters 2008 4Runner lost all electrical power when we tried to start the car. Not dead battery power loss, it was 100% total loss as if I had pulled the battery cable... No interior lights, etc. A few minutes later the lights came back on, but when I tried to start the car it died again without ever engaging the starter. The clock was reset so the car lost all power for a moment... This happened 2 more time and then it worked just... Read more

Well.... I've been hesitant to create a build thread on this 40 because I knew it was going to take me years of slow increments. Recently I've found myself with a proper shop and time to commit to it....so I've decided to up the ante and document it. This is a May 1979 build date. I picked this 40 up in 2017 and its been under sheds...in storage...and finally now in my newish shop. It has rust cancer out the wazoo and originally I intended to install a Teseven tub (there are a bunch of... Read more

Talking with Franz and Bill, it looks like this weekend (Oct 17) is a no-go for several, so let's try for the first Saturday in November. Really flirting with snow, but perhaps the mild winter will accompany us! Hey Cruiserheads, Time to think about our run NOVEMBER 7! Please post up if you're able to join and/or lead the run. I spoke to Jon this weekend and he was able to do the Thursten traverse; there is some grading going on and the washout at the bottom is a bit... Read more
