Heater Hose Kit 1FZ-FE / FZJ80 Toyota 80-Series Land Cruiser – RL1101

Our beloved FZJ80 / 80-Series Land Cruisers are now 25 to 29-years old and mostly likely have collected 200,000+ miles! If you want to make it to the 400,000 mile mark, major services are paramount! The 1993 introduction of the 1FZ-FE engine was a great improvement over the 3FE engine in the 91 – 92 FJ80’s, but it’s still not a 2UZ! Thus, cooling is MAJOR and a SERVICE overhaul of your heater/cooling system is in order for your 80-Series Land Cruiser!

This kit includes eight OEM formed heater hoses used on the FZJ80’s 1FZ heater system. These are all found along the firewall by the heater control valve. There is one .5″ (12.7mm) X 90-degree bend heater hose that is no longer available from Toyota but we have an OEM solution included in the FZJ80 Cooling Kit. Also, the factory heater hose clamps that came on the 1FZ-FE / FZJ80 are one-time-use clamps from the factory. We’ve upgraded this kit to include the OEM Toyota Constant Torque Spring Clamps such as used on the Power Steering lines. Set it and forget it until you reach your next major overhaul service interval in route to 400,000+ miles!

There is no set lifespan for a radiator hose. On average, they should last for at least five years, but some will last longer, especially if coolant is changed at the Toyota FSM specified intervals of every 36-months along with proper vehicle maintenance.
