Thank you for the replies. I will order a new cap as well following your suggestion. But what is weird is that the expansion tank is working normally, it fills when hot and gets around to middle when cool, so this means the cap must be working, no? But i'll swap it anyway, it's not that...

Hi all. So I change coolant about, maybe two years ago, I did it by flushing the radiator, fill it with distilled water and flush it again several times, while running the engine a little bit to circulate, diluting the old coolant and flush again. I then bought much more Toyota coolant than...

He said something along the lines of the thicker oil film between the gears with the GL5 oil will better avoid metal to metal contact. Me personally also believe that those gears don't need those extreme pressure additives, and may even contributive to more wear over the years with the increase...

Was having a discussion with a mate about my recent transmission oil change on my 90 series. Manual says to put either GL4 or GL5, and since I heard GL4 was more recommended for manual gearbox, I put in that. But the mate says I was stupid because GL5 was better, if the manual says I could had...

Yep, they just told me there is no ready-to-go wire for the trailer. Haha. I found mine exactly where you said it would be. And that hanging one is for the nonexistent diff lock system. Awesome, thanks for the help

Thank you for the insight guys. I'll send these pics to the dealership see if they can pin point what it is, because if it is for a trailer that would be awesome since I actually need to power my boat trailer lights

Hi guys! I found this plug hanging near the fuel tank and I have no idea of what its use is for. I tried reaching around the area to see if I could feel the other plug that connects to this one but nothing. I clean it good with contact cleaner spray but the amount of dirt baked into the plug...

Yeah, I paid 60 euros at the dealership. And I guided the antenna wire trough the normal route, except that I passed under the column. I did tried to pass it over some other wires and such to make it cozy for the antenna wire, there is more than enough wire length for that.

Good to know. Supposedly the rear diff should have a sticker or something to warn about the LSD existence, but I see nothing on mine, thats why I did the test. So I'm going to grab myself a couple of LSD oil bottles for the rear and a couple of normal oil for the front. Since we're on the...

Alrighty then! Thank you

Hi guys! Quick question. I'm changing the oils on my 1997 KZJ95, and I did the test to figure out if I have a LSD diff in the back. I jack up the back and spin by hand one of the wheels and indeed, both turned the same way, so that means I have LSD in the back. Now, my spare jack from my gf car...

Hi there. Coincidently I had to remove mine a week ago (1997 95 series) to get the fender off for repainting and protect the chassis fron rust. I had to cut my way into the aereal support because it was glued with oxidation so I bought myself from the dealership a new one without the power motor...

Thank you for taking the time and check that out for me! I finally saw it, it is in a real awkward position to get the wrench in. I managed to put it like the photo i took, but the force required to snap it loose was way to much, I was afraid I could break the screw, and also because of the...

Did you reach it from the top or from the bottom of the engine?

Thank you all for replying! I was looking in the general location for that plug, but it is either underneath the diesel fuel pump or hidden somewhere where i couldn't reach from underneath. I was also looking for just removing the bottom radiator pipe and let it flush out, but my question is if...

Hello guys! I'm hoping I could find some wisdom on where is this darn plug for draining the coolant in the engine block itself! I think I'm just being a blind dork and its right in front of my nose but I banged my head while laying underneath it and gave up for today. Anyway, i found on this...

Looks so modern and refreshed. Definitely a well made job!

Hello ren, thank you for your time and clarification! I'll be honest, for all these years of us owning this Land Cruiser, we could had swore it was 2x4 when in H, what a surprise haha. So this makes a lot of sense now, I'm relieved it is supposed to be the way it is. I guess i was just paranoid...

Hello all! I've created an account here because i am looking for some expert advice on a technicality relating to the 4x4 system on my Land Cruiser 90 series (1997) with manual transmission and 3L diesel engine, with only 130k km. We are the first owners of the car when my dad bought it new in...
