    SOLD  SoCal: 40-series 16" Split Rims

    Looking for some 16" splits for a 40-series. At least two of my five are too far gone for me to want to put them back on the truck. Something in Southern California-ish as I don't wish to deal with shipping.

    Wanted  Anyone familiar with cruiser_spares_marketplace on IG?

    cruiser_spares_marketplace Instagram profile Wasn’t sure where best to put this. I ran across the profile this week. Lots of interesting stuff, including a lot of non-USA engines and parts at what would be pretty great prices. I wondered if anybody had done business with him or had any...

    Wanted  SoCal: 40 series - 79-84 Front Seats

    I’m looking for front seats for my 1983 HJ47. I think that FJ40 from 1979- will work and even possibly early FJ60 seats. I took mine out to fix up but there is a lot more rust in the seat bases than I expected. Before I spend $1000 on restoring and recovering mine, I’d even more money on some...

    SOLD  Pasadena: Power Probe Toyota Brake Bleeder Adapter

    https://www.tooldiscounter.com/product/power-probe-toyota-small-brake-bleeder-adapter-pprba10 Purchased to go with my Motive Power bleeder kit but it did not fit my 1983 HJ47 master cylinder (too big). Bought based on recommendations here on the forum, so I imagine it fits earlier model FJ40...

    SOLD  Tall Skinny Take Offs (x5) 7.5R16

    Anybody looking to get rid of a set of new take offs from 70-series splits? I’m interested in tires only, because I have five six lug 16” splits. cruiserparts.net has Dunlop’s for $49 each, but shipping coast to coast may be cost-prohibitive. 7.5R16

    Wanted  Late-model ('79-'84) NOS Troopy Panels

    I know this is a crazy ask, but I've seen some pretty crazy stuff that people have in their stashes. I've acquired a bunch of NOS body parts for my Troopy and I'm wondering if anyone has any others hiding in a warehouse or closet somewhere. I'm mostly curious to see how much of a NOS Troopy...

    I'm looking at getting a few taps to clean up the threads on my Troopy where there have been some busted bolts, in particular in the rear corner soft top supports. The corresponding bolt part # is 91651-40620, which I think I worked out to be M6 x 1.0. I'd like to find something USA-made, and...

    Real Time Help in Pasadena

    Strange request but hoping a local Mudder might be able to help. I broke my left wrist up in Mammoth yesterday and had to have it surgically repaired. My wife is driving us home but my Troopy is parked in our driveway and she can’t drive it to move it out of the way. Wondering if there is...

    Terrain Tamer's FJ45V Project Videos

    I realize these are a few years old, but I just ran across them on YouTube and thought others might like to see the series. Terrain Tamer did a series on the restoration of a 1961 FJ45V pulled out of a field, albeit in fairly good condition. I found the series quite informative and each of the...

    Angle Grinder — How To Change Tool?

    I always seem to come to Mud for the questions that I know are probably dumb ones or the ones to which the answers are probably obvious to anyone whose spent any time in a garage. But I have learned that the dumbest questions are the ones left unasked. I bought an air compressor and then I...

    Headlight relay upgrade issue

    I ordered the headlight relay upgrade @beno posted in the Unobtainium thread last fall. I’m doing the installation right now, and the way the harness is set up and how my truck’s wiring is, I was trying to go off of the B+ terminal of the alternator, rather than direct off of the battery...
