Somebody is out there building new bullet proof troopies and pickups.
Armored Toyota Landcruiser 78 series | Isotrex Manufacturing
I would guess these are not admissible to import, no matter how old.
cheers
Howdy all,
Sad story here.
I'm long time looking for a late model FJ40 PTO shift ass'y.
I need the type with the lock button on the shift knob and has 3 positions: in and out plus neutral.
This PTO gear box will have 2 visible gears that engage the transfer case gear.
Also need the...
Ya'll probably knew that original Toyota levelling blocks for cruiser lean are officially called "Distance Plates" and are still available (in some places).
Dimensions:
L = 110 mm
W = 71 mm
Overall thickness = 10.25 mm
Pin = 9.5 mm OD x 7 mm high
Box = 9.6 mm ID
Main plate = 4.4 mm thick...
Hi all,
I'm still hunting a pto for a late model FJ40 - the type with the lock button on the shifter knob.
Needs to be correct with bracket for a FJ40 and have "in and out" positions.
I have the older and more rare type PTO with cable to swap if that's of interest.
Thanx
There seems to be a lot of yack about model rarity and late model cruiser production.
Many of you have this info - this for those who don't.
Below is the last of 3 pages of production data from the parts catalog of 1980 to 1986.
For some reason I want to say that the late model cruisers did...
It's got 668 pages with every option, nut, bolt, rope, soap and dope, all components drawings and part numbers of every part, plus heaps more info.
Question: are these catalogs available anywhere else that we know of ?
I "borrowed" this one from the Toyota vendor here.
Sample pages below:
I scooped up an old Hawk Model 610 and no instructions came with it.
It`s made for old autos with points. Made in Japan.
Anybody out there have 1 of these critters.
Would appreciate the instructions.
Not high tech but ...... it was 1 of the first things I made because you gotta have a midship cup holder in a cruiser.
It's just 3/16" ss solid rod bent around and then it has a ss tray on the support arms. The tray has a thin rubber pad glued to it.
The cup holder arms are welded to a thin ss...
I needed a digital clock for (one of) my late model 40.
Have been checking out cruisers everywhere I go for a clock that might "fit". Found a 2005 pickup (FZ something) heavy duty load capacity - no problem to cart around a couple of camels, or even a well head.
Anyways, it had a clock that...
Gents, (aren't we polite when we need help)
My late model '40 used to be a local police vehicle and the electrical system was hurting when I got it because of all the butchering to install lights, sirens, etc, and disconnection of seat belt, buzzer, etc.
Anyways, I got everything working - and...
I have a new A/C compressor and clutch - purchased separately.
The clutch pully section needs to be pressed over a bearing installed on the A/C compressor shaft.
There may be a procedure in a manual somewhere that I don't have.
Maybe just use a hydraulic press which means that the load tramsmits...
I really do hate to clutter up my engine bay with an a/c unit and I think they are evil taking away from the simplicity of a FJ40, but I have the original Toyota unit and it makes life easier to install it now and then and ship the beast to Canada intact.
The a/c is installed and I plan to...
New old stock.
Saudi is the cruiser capital of planet earth and "magnet mike" found these local made gadget carriers - made of canvas with pouches & velcro that fit over the tranny hump.
Made for the FJ40's with floor handbrake, but probably fits any hump.
My hump has a 3 legged coffee cup...
Mudders,
There's lots of info & opinon about upgrading FJ40 suspension out there, but I haven't seen any info on replacing with new OEM.
Mostly, upgrades seem to be replacements for tired and sagging 25+ year old springs by folks that want lift for big tires.
I haven't seen any comment /...
Hello all,
.... I used to live in Red Deer, so I kind of fit in here.
Anyways, new or used, I am looking for:
- 12v digital clock for late model FJ40
- 24 volt oil pressure gauge for BJ40
- PTO winch - complete - for late model FJ40 split case T/C.
If anybody can steer me to this - new or...
This might be a bit of a longshot ......
I am undoing the electrical damage from a Saudi spec 1984 FJ40 ex police vehicle.
A correct electrical schematic would be a great help!
I have a 1984 USA spec electrical schematic, but there are differences.
Mine has no relays, no emission controls, no...
