What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

How did you get the four quarts IN? Doesn't the fluid just run out? or is there both fill and level plugs? ZF transmissions fill at the level plug.

eta, this is just a dumb MT 6 guy asking.....;-)

 

I blame the criminally manipulative elements of this forum for the purchase (and maybe the $300 instead of $400 price) ...

 

I've been working on replacing the steel brake lines on my 80series Landcruiser before I list it for sale and rolled my 285/75r16 up to the TRD. Not sure what the offset is but I like them way more than the stock sport wheels.

If I put them on, it would trigger the tpms light. Would it automatically go out once the stock (23 sport wheels) go back on or would it need to be programmed?

 

I just pumped it in the fill hole until it dripped out of the overflow plug. From what I've read, these transmissions hold around 10 quarts.

 

Holy momma those wheels are ginormous!
You’ll need to reprogram the ECU with new wheels’ tpms sensors.
If you put the stock wheels back on, it should recognize the old sensors…

 

What winch did you go with?

 

They're 33s. They look factory on my Landcruiser.

Good to know! Doubt I'll actually run them but I dig the "old school" wheel on the truck

 

Should go out, the tpms are in the wheels themselves, only need to be reprogrammed when you swap wheels with new sensors

 

False. You are observant.

 

Regarding TPMS

IF a net set of wheel senders are programed into the controller, the old set are written over. The controller only allows four signals.

So if you swap and program, a return to the originals will also require a reprogram.

IF the replacements are NOT programmed in, and the warning light is just lived with, returning to the original set will just take a "relearning:. just like a tire rotation.

 

Nice build! Best color Toyota offers imo btw

 

Got a badlands winch off marketplace for an insane deal , so need to mount soon just need fairlead


took off my all my broken mudflaps kinda dog the look better , but probably need to get aftermarket

havin a fire by the river

 

looks great! I have the same upgraded suspension. Besides the improved stance, the ride is night and day compared to the stock suspension, imo.

 

which plan?

 

I got 61k miles, I am thinking about changing pads soon too, but my rotors still seem okay. What happened to your rotors?

 

These arrived today ! Ill put em on my next day off !

 

Have not selected yet, but could not pass on having. And it does other tasks without a plan so that can wait until "tomorrow".

 

What wheels are those? Do they come with a machined center cap or only black?

 

True. Same here at my change, was low from factory.

 

Does the spare tire come with a TPMS unit?
