    Axles opinion

    Do y'all think that 400 is a fair price for a front and rear axle out of a 66 fj40?

    1975 Fj40 Big Job :)

    Thanks Metal. I had the extreme pleasure the other day when my client called me up and told me that an FJ40 fan stopped him and told him it was the finest FJ he'd ever laid eyes on... I wrote back telling him that the guy he talked to needed to see more than 2 FJ's in order to qualify that...

    and Continuing.... This top is a story for boy's of all ages... As you will see the story unfold, it must have been ridden down Gravel Mountain by the Hardy Boy's. I worked for MANY hours on this top, and used a FULL Quart of 5 Star Hi-Build 2K primer... :( By the way... All the...

    1975 Fj40 Big Job :)

    Well it's been WAY more than a week... In fact, Friday will make this job 15 months! It left this afternoon with a very happy Driver. So I'm going to try to get in a few more pics of the 244 I took of the job which don't include some of the above pics...

    Use disc brake bearing grease. It's slightly thicker than regular wheel bearing grease, and it will perform wonderfully.

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    Well, It worked enough to get the thing to idle at about 500 then I upped it to 650 maybe 700, gettting tight on the set screw again, and pulling 18" lb of vacuum at idle through the vac adv, tube, as that is the ONLY point on this F2 in which I can place a vacuum gauge..... Anyhow the vacuum...

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    Oh heck maybe it is a 32/36 and I was just off in my #'s. I only know it's the doppleganger to every 1970's Ford Pinto 2.0 liter carburetor... I bought it from a guy here on MUD, it took me 3 day's to get all the sand out of it :) He loved mud. Now I'm not talking about a vacuum leak...

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    It's a Webber 36/38, as said in title.. But I think the extra air coming in below the base of the carb will make a big diffrence. I'll know sometime tomorrow

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    I feel like such a retard... I'm betting that if I rout the PCV valve to somewhere BELOW the carb where it's drawing vacuum, then I'd get my carb adjustments back where they should be... Ya think? This setup has the friggin PCV hose coming out of the block adn routed into the air cleaner...

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    I can see that happening also Pinhead, you're correct, but this carb does NONE of those things. It simply run's EXCELLENT except that the idle speed is in the 0 to 200 rpm range when fully warmed up... Even with that damn idle screw in fully. Anyone have a jet kit they're not using handy...

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    Now that's impossible.. In order to get the thing to idle at 625, OR ANY speed for that matter, is to remove the spring on the idle set screw and crank it in even more than it's fully adjusted state already. The Good Book say's 1.5 to 2.5 turns, I'm something like 5 turns in to get it to...

    Webber 36/38 or some odd, issue.

    There are NO vacuum issues that I'm aware of. the intake seals up to the head, and the carb seals up to the intake... The only vacuum port is for the vac, adv. and that's plugged off. I've already taken off the carb but I'll put it back on this afternoon with the exact same settings, and...
