I ordered two - one from Japan and one from UAE. Car is resting until I can get this fixed...... :-(

Thanks Shayne. I saw those on Ebay, but was hoping to find one in the states. No luck though. Will have to wait for one from the UAE.

Thanks Shayne. No, not the pump itself, but the gear that presses on to the pump shaft. It is Toyota part number 44316-60020. It is a petrol car, not diesel. Yes, my southern US English is most definitely not proper!!! I have always wondered by we call Petrol 'gas' in the US. Similarly...

Continuing the restoration..... I am in need of a replacement power steering pump gear. I replaced the pump itself as it was leaking on the suction port, high pressure port, and back seal. I must have pushed the original gear too far onto the new pump as it is now making a ticking sound...

Thanks Derek! There are several junk yards (or as we call them in rural Texas - wreckin yards!) around that I will check. I spent a good part of the day today bleeding the rear brakes again as the brake pedal had begun to slowly depress while at a stop. I'll drive it for a day or so and see...

Thanks Dave. I will check out chapel gate!

Thanks Dave from Spain! I have just returned from 10 days in Barcelona! Spain is such a beautiful country. Actually, the electric motor is working on the antenna. The mast is bent, so I am guessing that the gear or lifting rack is broken. I will take it out and investigate when it warms up...

Funny Shayne!!!! He is anxious for me to drive it out to his home! I worked for him many years and he is a truly wonderful person.

Thanks Shayne! I clicked on each option and none of them fit 96-97. They are all 98+. Still looking.

Just a quick intro to yall. My name is Ron Bone. I recently acquired a 96 Land Cruiser. My wife and I nicknamed her 'The Great White'. The car was given to me free by my boss. It was a true barn find in every sense of that phrase - including squirrels and rats. I am an avid car guy (truck...

Hi all. I have a quick question. But first, the story behind my newly acquired 96 Land Cruiser- My boss bought it new in 96. He and his family drove it until 2015, at which time he drove it into his barn in rural Texas and parked it. Last September, I was talking to him about our pick-up...
