Doing a Full Re-Gear on my Toyota Land Cruiser FJ80! Nitro 4.56 Gears

In today's video, I re-gear my 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser to 4.56 Gears from Nitro Gear & Axle! This was a very big project for my Land Cruiser, but I'm happy it's done and that it accommodates my larger tires well. Thanks to E for the help and space to work on this project!

Chloe. Definitely include your Land Cruiser videos on this channel. We love both the tacoma & the land cruiser (and 4runners :)

[@ChloeKuo]

I have some 4Runner videos coming soon 😊

[@royportalise5269]

Thank you for listening for our request for your awesome FJ80! More more more....Happy New Year Chloe.

[@Sentry1835]

Yes ... Yes.... Yes.... More videos on the LC 80, you are the star ⭐ of the show, your supporting cast is your growing fleet of Toyota's and how you modify them. We originally found your channel because of the Taco 🌮 mods, but continue to watch because of your can do attitude and your always upbeat personality. Plus your videos are very, as you say step by step on the various mods. Where as some other KZbinrs skip over details of a install.

[@TheKoreanMarksman]

^^more 80 content please

[@Redial2416]

This is the type of content I like to see. Love the Land Cruiser. Can't wait to see it on the trail.😊

[@dmann1209]

Awesome content Chloe! More with the 80 please! I assume you re geared it for more torque for off road purposes. Solid content , it looked as if the previous owner attempted to quiet the differential noise from the front axle..

[@gregmgm06]

Loved this. Looking forward to more Land Cruiser videos!

[@wickeddubz]

Why i generally like such kind of videos: nice narration, mellow hip hop vibes, something good is being made or repaired. It’s so good to have workshop and do such kind of projects

[@RonaldChapman-jg5xu]

Great job! Ol cruiser is coming together nice! Looks great.

[@lynnrunningdeer7364]

It's great that you're learning all of this. Most people would pay someone else to do it😒. You go girl😊.

[@dennisgundlach87]

absolutely loved the video Chloe, peace on earth good will toward you me, them. thanks Chloe on this New Years Eve, Happy New Year!!!!

[@gregktm]

You should get a mechanics jump suit (onesy) to wear so you don't ruin your clothes! Happy New Year!

[@richardpedersen9189]

Chloe - Great video as always!! More videos of what you're doing with the LC are always welcome 🙂 How do you like the results? THANKS again 👍 Best wishes for a Happy New Year 🥂

[@RideShootDrink]

Wow! Awesome job, I salute you! I've had 4.88 on my 91 and was quite happy. Oh that mighty 3FE! 😂😂😂

[@Knel_]

Uncle E!

[@williameddy7217]

Awesome Video!!! All your videos are Greatly Appreciated !! Happy New Year

[@MartyMotoring]

Love this LC!

[@WendzDarKnight08]

Great video! I enjoyed this one a lot! Happy New “Gear” 🥳🎊🎉

[@gelhorner6556]

Awesome video, I loved how uncle E let you be hands on instead of taking over like most guys do. Would love to hear your knowledge on re-gears, gears, differentials. Looking forward to that video🤙🏽

[@Queensizemusic]

Yes! Please! More 80 Series videos.

[@jlr43100]

Happy New Year. Love Eric. Good man.

[@19ADAM80]

Thanks for the chance Chloe👍🏼

[@wahabkhalifoh]

Yes please more 80 stuffs !

[@xzerbaluyot9994]

Chloe, just got myself an 80 series. Gonna be doing the same thing. Loving the LC videos.

[@22jeepmojave75]

Show some love for this channel. Keep up the good work!

[@joevergnetti767]

We also used kerosene as a parts cleaner/degreaser, love the FJ content and of course your hard work!

[@andyr9168]

Official! Keep doing it girl. Great choice in wheels/tires.

[@sayeednmb]

Great video! I learned something today!

[@RonaldChapman-jg5xu]

I run the same tire on my fjz 80, drives very good. Great video.

[@thelpw2608]

I think the breather tubes were failing. The hot and cold expansion/contraction of the gear oil in the diff sucked grease from the wheel knuckles. The breather tube was the culprit that wasnt allowing the diff to suck air. It was sucking air and grease from the wheel seals so it mixed grease with oil and created black mayo as you mentioned. Fix seals, make sure breather tube is working properly.

[@bluecruiser2019]

Always like seeing the LC80👍

[@jraddd3477]

Darn you should have done to Sumo transfer case gears, could have done the same 4:56 plus the low 3:1:1 without having to open up the diffs and for both gears around $1100. I just did and love it.

[@Engine7601]

Great video!

[@mikestone7551]

Would really enjoy more 80 content! Great job

[@phxamigo]

Not only should you wear appropriate clothing not to ruin your good clothing, but heavy canvas pants and an old sweatshirt can prevent a lot of soreness , scratches, and bruises especially working on that concrete........looking forward to more videos on the Land Cruiser!!!!!

[@largecarken8504]

You would be great on a race team. Maybe on a drag race team. You would be able to keep your day job. You’re a great mechanic and you would be a great tuner too.

[@Nano93b]

Awesome of you doing sponsor give away hope I win something for my taco good luck to everyone thanks for the opportunity your giving your viewers awesome content

[@ralphbitter3949]

Please, more LC videos. I've got a 2000 LC and enjoy Land Cruiser how-tos.

[@ericcarson342]

Good man E. Definitely no non-sense. Reminds me of Million Dollar Baby. Look like you learned quite a bit. Great job, great video too.

[@EvanxBurke]

so rad!

[@austinmartin5924]

More Land Cruiser videos pls!!!!!!!!

[@1992Yotaman]

The 91-92 land cruiser is one of the worst money pits you can buy. Gets 10 mpg downhill, is super slow and can't get above 70 mph, and is so expensive to maintain. I have a white 92 fj80 as well, thanks for the videos!

[@johnnyreb8030]

Get some baggy bibs to work in. Great job home skillet!!!!!

[@DanQuentinJames]

Excellent video...yes, more videos on the J80. Maybe there is a J250 in your future.....and Happy New Year.

[@slh48]

That’s crazy I just commented on your new video have you ever seen Joe Rogan‘s Land Cruiser and you have your own Land Cruiser👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@mxkcrm]

There's not alot of videos on the FJ80 since it only has a 2 year run compared to the FZJ80 so ty... I you have a new subscriber 😌

[@jewllake]

Congrats on doing it yourself! My brother in law had a 1994 (IIRC) land Cruiser and he had the floating axel in the rear. What was the stock ratio before the re gear?

[@ChloeKuo]

4.10 before the re gear 😊

[@revampted]

Awesome Work Chloe

[@dennisgundlach87]

Chole, have you ever consider having your Tacoma wrapped, I'm thinking a nice desert camo?

[@fskrisfx]

Working out Chloe? You’re starting to look ripped! Lol

[@dannyvillegas7408]

Def got to make mo vids on this beauty

[@alejandrocamacho6219]

When are you gonna post more videos on the Land Cruiser?? I just bought one and want to restore it

[@brianmorse8811]

I'm happy for you! Woohooo!😁👍💯Awesome👏

[@nukiesduke6868]

You're lucky you're smol. Working in tight spaces is such a massive pain in the bum. Every time I have to crawl under a sink to do plumbing stuff I think I catch some cancer. Only time I'll ever feel bad for 6+ feet guys is when they have to do some type of work in some type of super tight, small space.

[@ericander2108]

Chole help!! You installed a tailgate ain't theft part, looked like a J shape, I can't find it. ? Thank you

[@tomsemo8186]

Good stuff tkx. Tom

[@shaneintegra]

8:32 you never press on the side. The press should be pressing evenly onto that socket so it doesnt kick it over

[@Steelologist]

Great stuff. A++

[@Richardharrison11947]

Have you ever changed the diff oil before this job?

[@jonnywrongturn.4143]

Do you have anything on the outer steering knuckle axle assembly??

[@wickeddubz]

Probably you are backend dev, if you were frontend, you’d be into paintjob and polish i guess. Or i’m just bad at guessing😊

[@NiteHawk861]

First time commenting, first time viewing. Definitely would like to see more of the 80 series

[@Bchun1222]

more 80 content!

[@stuartarneaud218]

More LC 80

[@sonny1597]

Good video .. I love the black mayonaise .. LOL. I don't know the vehicle but figure with 4.56's you's be running 35's .. but did you not put in a locker, or did I miss that? 🤠

[@ChloeKuo]

Thanks! No locker, Nitro has an E locker option but I think with my year it wasn’t compatible for some reason. I am thinking about air lockers, although it would’ve been awesome to add them in while everything was taken apart!

[@mel2063]

🙂

[@tommcl8548]

👊👍

[@RobertCarrizal]

Hey Chloe Kuo any vibration for rear driveshaft new gear?

[@ChloeKuo]

I don’t feel any vibrations after the re gear!

[@RobertCarrizal]

@@ChloeKuo that’s cool happy new year Chloe!! Your friends

[@lynnrunningdeer7364]

Son's of Arthritis😂👍.

[@nukiesduke6868]

I thought that was a sons of anarchy shirt then had to do a double take. rofl.

[@ChloeKuo]

Yeah, that shirt kills me 😂

[@snowboardlifestyle3940]

I’m a Toyota tech lmk if you need any help anytime

[@svporqueno]

[@jerrybohringer4894]

It would have been possible without him.

[@ChloeKuo]

I could not have done this on my own the first time!

[@cab1198]

🇺🇸⚒️💪🤘👍🤙🧢

[@jeremymackevincaylor5041]

Unfortunately you are making all these videos on vehicles that noone owns or mostly aren't cared about. Unfortunately.

[@roach182008]

And?

[@mattholmberg6191]

Nobody is making you watch.

[@huronv9500]

Now you should do a regear on the tacoma and let us know if it is worth it

[@nicknamean]

Always wear ppe when pressing things kids

[@78jorgesam]

More Land Cruiser videos....
