    No doubt - I'd love a 13BT, too!

    Gorgeous Diesel 60 Spotted

    I really just happened to talk to the right dismantler at the right time and found a recently (as in that week) rear-ended, babied HJ61. He said since I was 'just up the road' I should come see this one, that it was really a beautiful specimen. I made him an offer for the whole drivetrain a few...

    Gorgeous Diesel 60 Spotted

    Not me I can't lay claim to that one, unfortunately, just to two other silver Austin-based diesel cruisers. And mine's a 12HT :D but won't look quite as nice as the one in the pic for another couple of months... My other truck, the factory HJ60 with 2H, is still original, still waiting for...

    AltFuel What to look for in a diesel destined to run on bio?

    The H's I run B100 in both of my trucks regularly. The indirect injected 2H is perfectly suited to the task. For the 12HT, I'm adding a Racor 390RC with extra water sensor and in-bowl heater before the stock filter. I wouldn't think twice about converting the 2H to full SVO. I'd be a bit...

    2H newb q's

    Besides the 12HT being a TD, the 2H is indirect injected where the 12HT is direct injected. The 12HT also has piston skirt cooling as it was designed as a turbo from the factory. Throwing a turbo kit on a solid 2H does put you into 12HT performance territory (and potentially beyond), but...

    help please! 2H 24v troubles after swap

    check your VSV I'd drain the water separator, change fuel filter (ideally), re-prime, and check the VSV above the fuel pump. Since you originally had to shut it off manually, make sure that lever didn't stick. Also check the butterfly valve (intake shutter) just above the VSV to be sure it's...

    Tach Hookup - FJ60 12H-T install

    just coming out of hibernation here, but i wanted to chime in and say we hooked up panoramic's signal conditioner and analog/digital gauges to my 12HT's dangling receiver tonight. it works like a charm. the reading is accurate and responsive without seeming twitchy. as much as i dig the...

    Selling one of my diesels

    Fellas, I've met a couple of you at meetings and will be at this month's meeting as well, but I wanted to give this board a heads up before putting this out as a general listing. I'm selling my factory diesel -- 1987 HJ60 with 2H and A440 (auto). It's stock and I'm the second owner. It's a...

    WTS: OEM wheels + tires FJ60

    I'd love to see some pics if you've got 'em.

    Great meeting... nice rigs in Austin!

    Fellas, It was nice to finally meet you all at the meeting. Glad to see Austin is very well represented in the Cruiser community -- good people and some badass trucks. I can't wait to get at least one of my rigs out on the trail. :beer: take 'er easy, mike

    A pillar Gauge Pod group buy...

    Mine came USPS in one of those long triangular boxes. The box itself was a little smashed up so I took pics just in case the pod was damaged, but it was actually nicely packed inside. No problems at all. The top hole does look like it's way up there but I'll echo zander in saying there...

    A pillar Gauge Pod group buy...

    Here's a rough pic of the pod in place. I'll try to take some with a better camera later, but the texture, color matching, and fit all seem great.

    A pillar Gauge Pod group buy...

    Mine just arrived today, 10/26! I've just opened up the package and this is quality work - looks stock. I haven't even held it up to the truck yet but will let you know how it goes. cheers, zander!

    A pillar Gauge Pod group buy...

    Very cool, zander. I knew it would be a long process; you've done a nice job pushing it through. I haven't gotten mine yet here in TX but I'll keep an eye out next week. Much obliged!

    12 HT install FJ 60; Exhaust/Muffler guidance please

    Good info. I'll be doing this same swap at the end of September and will use 3" straight through. Those Aero Turbine mufflers do look interesting so let us know how it works out if you install it. Greg_B, have you guys installed those on 12HT's in the past? Would you still do 3" all the way?

    Mileage that your 2H alternator blew up at?

    Thanks for the part number! Much obliged... 180,000 miles. Not sure whether that's typical or not, honestly. I'd be interested in other responses, too. I'm at just over 200,000 miles on the truck now. I also am just going by what the alternator shop told me. I haven't run the original...

    Mileage that your 2H alternator blew up at?

    My first one lasted to about 180,000. I found a good deal on a new OEM alternator for the 2H and put that in. Then I replaced the brushes on the old one and it was good as new. So I've got a good spare in case of trouble. I just got back from an inspection a few minutes ago and it looks...

    My HJ-60....She is now a vegetarian

    Yep, zander's site is where I got the numbers for the Viton lines. He's all over this stuff. Changing the fuel lines is even easier on the 2H and 12HT since more of the lines are steel with only 3 feet of rubber to replace. I'll post a thread when I get around to doing this.

    My HJ-60....She is now a vegetarian

    I've been running B99 exclusively for 5 months. I bought the Viton lines 4 months ago but haven't actually done the conversion yet. I check my fuel lines religiously and so far haven't noticed any adverse effects at all -- nothing but good experience here with it, but then I'm probably on the...

    Shared DIY tooling space anyone?

    Looked into it a little and it's damn expensive. The leases are long and I didn't even factor in insurance. I'll just tell my neighbors the truck on blocks is yard art. :cool:
