I'm extremely glad that I found this site. My wife and I have decided to jump in head first into owning an FJ60. This is really my first time owning a vintage truck and intend it to be my daily driver. We bought the truck a few weeks ago and since I've been trying to learn all I can about it. I absolutely love this truck. We bought it from a vintage car reseller in Brentwood, TN that had cared and repaired on the truck for the previous owner. Here's a list of the recent services and add-ons that had already been done to the truck. (I will be getting the rest of the maintenance records when we get the title.)
What major things do I need to keep up on maintenance wise and how hard are these to wrench on if you have limited mechanical knowledge and even less tool availability?
