What would you recommend-leaf springs.
By Wheelytech
Hello all, as I’m stripping down my 74 fj40 for a rebuild I’m shopping around parts and trying to decide details. I’m looking for a final result of an aggressive stance (that doesn’t mean tall) on 33’s I think. I’m on a budget so can’t go all out on a full on setup. I did however find a front and rear set of emu springs brand new never installed for $500. I’ve read they dont give much lift. Cs001f/r I’ve also read about and thought about doing a shackle reversal. My questions are. Are... Read more
1982 K jet conversion to Weber
By humbert
Rather than mess with the K-jet which few know how to work on, I'm thinking about converting it to a Weber. I've seen pics but wonder about the intake manifold change. I don't know if Weber sells an intake manifold for such a conversion Thanks
Terrain Tamer Parabolic Springs
By Joe45
Howdy all! I've been looking to install Terrain Tamer rear parabolic springs on my HJ45 Pickup Truck. Can't find a part number or anything. Anyone done this? Will springs for another LC model work by changing the spring hangers? The setup I am looking at would be rear Terrain Tamer parabolic springs, front Terrain Tamer or OME springs. For shocks, I am leaning heavily towards OME BP51s Thanks!

Why are color identification for the colorblind?
By Moparfiend
I’m a bit colorblind just wanted to verify these two colors (on the right) one is red and the other one is Violet with a trace. These I believe should go to my high and low beams in my front headlights. Any confirmation of these two wires would be very helpful for me. Thanks.

JT Outfitters issues?
By Yoda
Back in August I ordered rear disk brackets and rotors for my 76. Card was charged, shipping # received, est delivery Sept 3. Never showed up, UPS says they never received the order. Sent JTO an inquiry on their "customer support" board. Never got a response. Now it is a month after the order placed. I left a new message on their board to just cancel my order and refund my charge card. How can a company survive being like this?

1HZ vs 1HD-T - Pros and Cons
By beingbeforedoing
Hi all, I am new to the site and I'm considering buying either an HZJ80 or HDJ80 LHD and importing to the US. Admittedly, I suck at using the search function, but I'm surprised that I've been unable to find a breakdown of the differences - good and bad - between the 1HZ and the 1HD-T engines. In an effort to educate myself (and others), I'd like to solicit the opinions of all crusty, old, curmudgeons on the vices and virtues of each engine. What do people like about one and not the other... Read more
Cruiser Patch 2003 LX470 Build Thread
By cruiserpatch
That's right we got another one. Figured I should break into the mid-late 100 series model years to be able to develop products for them and test fitment etc. This one will primarily serve as the wife's DD but will also be a sleeper build. So far I've baselined it (see list) but will be upgrading things as time allows. 184,000 miles with some rust, a terrible paint job (looks good from 10 feet), horrible body work and a whole host of other problems. Perfect. Paid $5,800 for it which was... Read more

Engine Coolant 5.9 Engine
By Scotto58
2000 Ram Sport 1500 4X4 5.9 Engine. I pulled the radiator cap to check the coolant level and this is what I found: What would cause this? I have never seen this in any other radiator I've had. Also, the coolant in the overflow tank appears to be orange, maybe gold color. Would that be HOAT coolant? Thanks for any in site you can provide. Scott
Intro
By palmtree191
If this isn’t allowed, let me know. New to this. A Land Cruiser has been a dream of mine for a while now. Neighbor has a sweet FJ62 with turbo diesel. But he convinced me an 80 series was the move for a first LC, especially with my family. So here I am! My “issue” is I currently drive a 15 Tundra with 90k miles. We already have a family vehicle and I can’t justify owning 3 cars at the moment. The truck is mainly used for hauling and hunting (multiple deer/elk a year). Only tows a raft... Read more

Bug deflector for 2500 with sport hood
By jejb
Picking up a '27 2500 this week with a sport hood. Trying to find a bug deflector for it. Most of them say not for sport. I am having problems finding anything that specifically says it will fit a sport hood. Seems like anything that will fit a regular 2500 hood should work, but I can't confirm that. Any help would be appreciated.

LX470 Headlight Upgrade: TEQ Customs vs. Lightwerkz, Real-World Experiences?
By Ray J
Yeti, my 2007 LX470 with the original halogen projector headlights needs an upgrade since it’s 2026, almost 27. The factory lenses are still clear and in excellent condition, but I’m looking to improve nighttime visibility while maintaining as close to an OEM appearance as possible. I’ve narrowed my research to two options: TEQ Customs: OEM+ bi-LED projector retrofit, starting around $500. Appears to retain the factory appearance and offers modern LED performance. Lightwerkz...
