Starter Motor Rebuild - Toyota Landcruiser. ForeverCruisin

[@TheJakeRobinson]

Thanks for the detailed video - very helpful to understand the process...

[@LokiMelb]

Mate, this is exactly the video I was looking for to save over $100 to replace the solenoid contacts rather than a whole new starter motor. Great work!!

[@shareacc172]

thanks mate, had the clicking noise for a few months now travelling in south america. you're video just saved my a**!

[@Sargmeov]

awesome if not for the informative rebuild but for the little lines in between, very "OCCA" and now my kids a wife know there is others out there that do the exact same thing with their cars! Pops tools and the aptitude to take it on blindly well done to your pop and parents for giving you this ability and mind set.....just like i say to my kids "if you dont have a go, you will never know". its a dieing thing in the new generations i must say. Keep up the good work mate and hopefully one day you will pass it on to your kids as i am to mine!

[@rogerandleoniehall9740]

Wonderful. Brilliant demo. Thankyou

[@dedalnok]

Thank you very much for this helpful video, with all the little insides! And kudos for your filming skills! 👏 My father ran in this issue with his 80 series LC, will be rebuilding it now in both LC! Regards from Switzerland 🇨🇭

[@forevercruisin6715]

You’re welcome mate! All the best with it!

[@kymonixon6188]

Awesome to see vids on the 80s, got one myself and love watching these helpful vids. Gives me confidence to do things myself

[@ADayInTheLifeOfJames]

[@solmillin]

Good on ya! Now, I've got to do it! Wish me luck! :)

[@mitchsimpson2384]

Awesome film mate, great job.. mine has just started to get a bit dicky (2000 1hz troopy) so will give this a crack now after seeing you get it done! Legend !

[@Essera26]

Gotta do this on my 93' 80 Series here in the US, since the starter is taking more revs to start. Around the same cost to also do rebuild kit, $67, not too shabby! Great video mate! Keep up the good work!

[@davidfarr8217]

Awesome post, buddy, thanks so much!

[@forevercruisin6715]

Glad it helped ya!

[@jameymillar9640]

Thanks John, you were a big help.

[@joegoodfellow6981]

Don't Sell yourself short son. I've had so called mechanics/engineers working for me for years that wouldn't hold a candle to you. You have a natural aptitude, trust me I served my apprenticeship with Rolls Royce in the sixties when trades were trades. Great style with video also. Well done, joe. Ireland

[@alansiddall8227]

What could be the problem if your engine just cranks at a slow rate

[@muzguz7276]

Copper contacts, not a little earth wire but we got the point and the new contacts will definitely be able to handle the current better due to more surface area. Great video. I used to rebuild all my starter motors and alternators. Found out the hard way not to cut the commutator too far on the lathe too.

[@darcylatham7152]

Props to you my man! unreal vid. keeping it simple. such a common issue. keep the vids coming!

[@forevercruisin6715]

Cheers mate!

[@ahmedakrem8188]

[@joshwhittaker8925]

saved me 800 bucks ! cheers bro

[@forevercruisin6715]

That's what I like to hear! Nice one!

[@alexv033]

Hi, do you have a video how to replace starter Toyota land cruiser 80?

[@forevercruisin6715]

Hi mate, this is a video on rebuilding, if you watch the end it will show you how to install it so watch that part and it will be the same for a rebuilt or new. Cheers

[@alexv033]

Hi, i saw already :))))

[@rowenabaseggio5051]

legend cheers mate exacley what i need in gonna rip in haha

[@beejoutbush3322]

Mate do you reckon you could get to the starter motor from underneath if you take off the wheel?

[@forevercruisin6715]

Hey mate, yeah you probably could, found it easier to go from the top/bottom for the bolts and plugs, if you go in through the wheel arch just needed to pull all the guards off and their are also a few solid brake lines you need to try and navigate through.

[@marcusmason3440]

Drove my 80 all over Australia........never had a problem getting spares, engine rebuild kits? no problem !! service items? no problem!! the whole country is geared up to keep these old girls running. Got to the UK......fekin rubbish.....hard work finding the basics...... Take your spanners to Australia, its a spanner monkeys dream. Beer is ok...... Sydney chicks are a bit snotty...... Back of Burke is awesome.... Never a dull moment..... If I wasnt too old and poor I would move there........

[@SAXONWARLORD1000AD]

where are you from - just got this same kit for 17 quid shipped here in the UK

[@kyleavard2460]

🫡 cheers brother

[@Mango_McPoo]

Those screws aren't philips, they're JIS (have the dot on the head)

[@alex.trading.reviews]

Pretty sure you can get one for free somewhere up near Cape Levesque 🧐😂

[@forevercruisin6715]

hahaha in its natural habitat

[@SAXONWARLORD1000AD]

WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS THAT WAS - JUST DID MY 1997 3.0 TD , UK VERSION (if it makes a difference) - JUST RIDICULOUS LOCATION , CANT GET YOUR HANDS IN THERE , SO MUCH STUFF IN THE WAY , TOUGH TO GET OUT FROM THE TOP (snagged off a brake line , im sure ill need to bleed) - OF COURSE THE SOLENOID PARTS REPLACEMENT WAS EASY - HAVE TO WRESTLE IT BACK IN TMRW AS I GOT STOPPED BY A THUNDER STORM - I TOOK OFF THE AIR BOX and i think removing the oil filter would help a bit , so do an oil change at the same time

[@cherylwalsh2102]

Autos have got more crap in the way plugs in pipes n shit. 😖

[@forevercruisin6715]

Didn’t know that! Good to know for anyone trying to do it on an auto!

[@kymonixon6188]

I gotta do 1 in my auto, from inside the engine bay it looks clear
