    ToyotaMatt

    Has anyone heard from @ToyotaMatt recently? I placed an order on 12/29/23 (with confirmation email) but have not received it yet. I have reached out via the VintageTEQ website, Gmail, and DM over the last couple of weeks but have not received a response. Is he ok?

    Rear Main Seal Leak

    Have you pulled the clutch inspection cover and looked inside? What I thought was a rear main seal leak was actually an oil pan leak under the main bearing area. The key giveaway was a dry flywheel. Mike

    Butchered half-finished FJ40 on BAT

    How about the missing cap on the air cleaner completely bypassing the air filter.

    T-Case Shift Seal Source

    I apologize for any confusion. The online parts catalog I order from occasionally has that as a seal from 8/78 to 1/80. My production date is 8/78. I took a chance and got lucky. It was match to what I removed and fit perfectly.

    Bit off more than I can chew. '78 FJ40 in Albuquerque

    I pretty much performed all of your above work plan in February / March of this year on my 1978 FJ40. Clutch/rear main seal/transfer case seals/oil pan and pan gasket/engine mounts due to multiple leaks that had been worsening over the years. I had a very, very difficult time getting the oil...

    Stuck Oil Pan

    As I have taken things apart (driveshafts, oil pan, transmission from bell housing, etc) I have noticed odd bolts and nuts are much looser than others. No rhyme or reason. I will be embracing the blue and green threadlocker as I re-install. Rust is not a factor as it’s been in AZ 99% of its...

    Stuck Oil Pan

    Eventually I was able to get it off though it was slightly mangled. I used a small bottle jack on the passenger side to push on it which loosened the pan on that side and around the bearing caps. Driver side was still firmly attached. Access to tap in a putty knife is very limited. After...

    Stuck Oil Pan

    Well then… I have a stock 1978 FJ40. I am in the process of changing the rear main seal/clutch. Tired of the mess on the garage floor. I am also changing the oil pan seal… maybe original maybe not. Whatever the case it’s stuck on like nobody’s business. It won’t budge… I’ve used a putty...

    Now this … Is the OEM radiator drain plug plastic?

    I have an aftermarket (CSF) radiator in my 78 FJ40 and had the exact problem you are having. Plastic plug effectively fell apart and I was never able to find an exact replacement. I ended up using a stainless M12 button head socket cap screw and a rubber o-ring. No issues, no leaks.

    Are these seat covers original?

    Thank you for the responses. I assumed they were not stock but looked nice and were on the vehicle when I purchased in 2003.

    Are these seat covers original?

    Jump seats are all gray vinyl. The covers were on the vehicle when I purchased it in 2003. While likely not original they’re pretty well executed.

    Are these seat covers original?

    I have a 1978 NAS FJ40 with cloth seat covers. They appear to be original but I’ve only ever seen vinyl. Has anyone seen anything like these???
