I figured I would revive an old thread. This cargo / camper system is now sitting in my garage waiting to be installed in my 100. All of the plumbing and electronics have been removed and I need to decide how much of it is going to go back in. I also need to figure out exactly what I want to...

****ty. My old 80 and my 100 get about 13mpg.

True, but have you ever replaced HGs on a 3.0? To me, that is an engine failure because I would be throwing the engine away! LOL. I don't think they are all owner caused. There are too many failures (and Toyota changing the HG design) for that to be the case. Engine issues aside, it's just a...

You can replace the 2 cat system with one aftermarket 3-way cat for a lot less. And 75% have (or had and will have again) head gasket issues or the engine replaced. You don't have to believe me, it's very well documented.

If you can swing for a 1FZ motor (93+), it will be a lot nicer to drive power wise. The 3FE is a strong tractor motor. It is slow, but I would still do that over a 3.0l V6 4Runner (which is what your price range can get you). The 3.0l is slow and unreliable.

Small world! Well that saves me trying to get you on our forum. LOL. Feel free to start a thread on CC as well. There is a few of us 100 owners.

I'm currently out of a BMW, unless you include my wife's Mini Cooper S. I have owned an e30, a couple e32's, and my last one was an e90 (The salesman was really confused when I walked in and said I wanted a 328i with a manual and no options. LOL). I would love another e30, they are just...

Good looking 100! What dealership do you work at? I've had a few BMWs myself.

Yeah, running 285's on my LX470 I feel the lack of gearing. But then again, I pull a trailer a lot. It all depends on what you can stand and how you use your vehicle.

That is awesome! I would love to know how much glare you get off your hood at night.

Since you can run 285's on stock suspension, the AHC suspension made sense for me and I love it. However, I won't pay to fix it. If it craps out, I will put a lift kit on it and call it a day. The only downside to my plan is the AHC system is pretty complex and it takes some time to remove...

This may help you out: 100-Series guide: http://www.sleeoffroad.com/newbie/newbieUZJ100.htm 80-Series guide: http://www.sleeoffroad.com/newbie/newbie100.htm I have owned both 80 and 100 Series. They are both awesome but I love my 100. With A-TRAC, I don't even miss being triple locked.

I didn't say that it would give you more articulation, I said it would free up movement...

Correct, the MT arms aren't as much clearance but will free up some movement. There are arguments both ways as to what is better...

I'll just put this here... MetalTech 100 Series rear lower link.

Okay, that is the best looking 100-series bumper I have seen yet. Nice work!

Started tearing it down for the TBI 350 swap...

I love my 100, but I really miss my 80... I'm just lucky enough to have a 40 for the trails. If I was limited to only one Cruiser, it would be another 80, hands down.
