My 96 FZJ80 is available. Bring a trailer. Up until May was using with Antique plates in Maine. Had a brake line crack so parked her with intent to work on her this summer. Didn't happen with other projects and then developed an issue with not getting fuel. May have shorted fuel pump when...
Anyone have suggestions on 80 tank straps...concerned after thorough pb blaster soaking, cannot get bolts to remove without twisting tank straps. Fearful of damaging them and not being able to find replacements. Have to drop tank to replace fuel filler neck since its leaking from breather...
I’m looking at any option and I had not anticipated it being this challenging to get a replacement fuel fill neck nor having to lift the body to do this. I’m not looking to just make a quick fix but it has been a daily driver and safety is most important. I was hopeful for some solutions from...
I think a sleeve of 1.5-2” fuel filler hose would work but just trying to get the hose separated from tank requires dropping it which could potentially break the neck on the way down. I don’t see removing the body from the frame to do this.
So the leak was where the air and fuel were welded/linked together. If you look to the right of the screwdriver, hole is roughly 1” long with about a 3-4” line where the hole is leading. Tried to remove the filler neck today, can’t Free either line from the tank. If I drop the tank, I have to...
I think the leak is just over the rear axle, where the fuel hose and vent line are touching together after the bracket. When I was trying to remove the bracket, both bolts snapped so that sucks. But there was a rainstorm of rust dropping on me. It seems likely this is where the issue is.
No, it’s leaking when filling at the pump. Put 10 gallons in via jerry cans didn’t spill a drop to see where the leak is coming from. So leads me to believe it’s the fuel filler neck because pump fuel, according to my wife is quick to weep and spill at the pump. Can’t duplicate by pouring from a...
I’m struggling with the tank belt bolts and can’t free them. I’m 99% sure that my leak is from the fuel fill neck and wondering if I can’t drop the tank, has anyone pulled the neck without dropping the tank? Not sure what is the path of least resistance. Pours from jerry cans do not show the...
Looking for best way to approach/troubleshoot where the issue is..right front or right rear sensor showing open. Not sure if it's the sensor, connections, wiring harness to sensor. First step thought to get ohm meter, put to sensor to see if/where there is drop in power. was careful with sensors...
And then I find out my driveshaft is toast. Barely hanging on. Not the best lead up to Christmas. OEM on driveshaft or something else? Not going bigger than what she rides on at 285/75/15. Already on OME lift.
Thank you for the all the replies and advice. Hopeful I wouldn't need to find a used knuckle. I wasn't really torqueing hard. Using barely any force and these felt like they dissolved under pressure. I had sprayed PB and penetrating on these before starting.
As far as removing the tie rod, it...
So this didn't go as planned and ran into roadblocks..I was able to get the birf assembly and everything out smoothly..grease was good and no gear oil but have had clicking and crunking in the right side for a while...when moving onto trying to free the knuckle, struggled to remove tie rods from...
