    NC Engine Shop for 1997 1FZ-FE

    Oh wow, 5 months vs 10 days is quite a difference. Thanks for all the help I'll work my way down the list and see if anybody can take on the project.

    NC Engine Shop for 1997 1FZ-FE

    Thanks for the feedback! I'm open to suggestions on either. In a perfect world it would be a shop that could do both, but more a mechanic that is familiar with Toyotas and Land Cruisers.

    NC Engine Shop for 1997 1FZ-FE

    Hello, not a member of ONSC but live in Greensboro and am looking for shop recommendations on a total overhaul of the 1FZ-FE in my 1997 40th anniversary. I can pull the engine myself and deliver, just don't have the time right now to tackle this project myself. She's got 330k on the clock still...

    Rebuild FJ40 Drop Down Tailgate Latches

    Thanks for the reply! Yeah I mean the one I have is still in one piece, so it hasn't rusted too much from 1972. I guess another way of asking would be how did these come from the factory? Was the ringlet part plated, or painted? I know the tailgate is less common than the swing out doors, I...

    Rebuild FJ40 Drop Down Tailgate Latches

    Well, Ive spent the last 3 years removing the rust from this particular project so I'm trying to find a solution a little better than spraypaint.

    Rebuild FJ40 Drop Down Tailgate Latches

    Hello, rebuilding a rear drop down tailgate on a 1972 Fj40. What have you guys done to refinish this part as to prevent paint chips and rusting? There is metal on metal contact with the mechanism. Where can I get the pins that hold this assembly together? I could drill them out and powdercoat...

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    I tried to post pictures to help anyone else out. I know this topic has been covered before, but old posts had conflicting information. From my understanding all drum brake systems have some sort of residual valve to maintain constant pressure. This just isn't necessary for the clutch operation.

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    On the AISIN BMT112 those parts were at the end where the brake line screws in. I did not see them at first inspection, but I had to use a wooden tool to pry them out from the inside. On the early FJ40 brake master I think you can unscrew the fitting side to get to everything. The little holes...

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    So I think I figured it out. Here's a picture of the FJ55 brake master installed. Looks great, and was easy to adjust. The M10 threads on the end let me keep my SS line. The early FJ40 brake master has a M9 fitting. I noticed a little cup at the end of the cylinder once I had it apart and...

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    So the part arrived and was not blue! WooHoo! It is noticeably larger than my 3/4" AISIN master. I disassembled it to remove a residual pressure valve and I don't see one? Do I need to modify this brake master at all to work with my clutch slave?

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    Thanks for the response. I think I'm going to order this AISIN unit off ebay ($69 free ship) and see how it goes. It looks like the pedal rod connector will be easier than the Raybestos, and my line will thread in without an adapter. The reason I may have to drill out/notch my fork is because...

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    Byron I read through your original post. I believe the FJ55 brake master has the proper threads I would need without an adapter. If you had it to do over again would you get the FJ40 brake master instead? I also noticed today that the slave linkage I am using is aimed towards the drivers side...

    LS1 Conversion Clutch Won't Disengage

    Now we're getting somewhere. In reference to to Downey's response, I chose the Sachs Kit because of the other issues with alignment on a GenIII 5.7L. It was my understanding that modifications would have to be made to the flywheel/pins/etc... After reading post after post I found this thread...
