Started cleaning up my t-case housing with wire wheels. Getting years for crud and old undercoating off of it. It won't be as nice as a full removal and resto but it's the best it will get for now.
I have an alternate from an 1985 fj60 with internal regulator installed in my 1980 fj40 with a 1981 wiring harness. My problem is that I had the alt rebuilt twice because of of one thing or another in the past 3 months. Both times the voltage...
Servicing the original starter 28100-60041, 28100-60061 is not very difficult. Finding replacement parts for a complete rebuild is. It’s also not easy on the wallet. For me, I like the original sound of the OEM starter.
FYI....if you think you can order a rebuilt FJ40/60 alternator with internal regulator as described on Parts Geek website complete with correct pictures.....you can...BUT...you will receive a Chinese made/remanufactured alternator without a...
Make sure all your body mounts are in the correct place to including your bib, rubber spacers one fender skirts for hood, adjust your fenders up or down, fwd and aft tilt where the four bolts mount to frame. May even need to tweak them out a bit...
Power steering gear box input shaft seal started leaking so I replaced it without removing the box and that worked out fine, way peezy..... But then the whole top end of the box started pissing!! 😡 Ordered a gasket sill kit a decided with much...
When you say "regular" slot are you speaking of a DIN opening or the smaller FJ40 opening? If this fits my 78 USA FJ40 with the lower dash pads and no cutting (of the FJ40 - I'm fine trimming the bezel) it sounds like a winner.
I believe it's the much sought after Shell Ivory or Lily White and not the Cygnus. Shell Ivory which i think was replaced by Lily White was a lost color code but a few deep diggers found a good match with a Lily White PPG Omni or Dupont LS123 or...
This was the roof for my '76 - the original Cygnus was under a repaint of blue, and under the Cygnus was the fiberglass gelcoat. At least for '76, the roof was painted and not raw gelcoat, as the steel rail and cap were painted after mating.
A...
If I remember correctly the fiberglass tops were gel coated, not painted. When my top and bezel needed a refresh, I just rattle canned them with 6 cans of Rust-Oleum fusion white. Slightly brighter than what OEM looks like but I wanted it to have...
Looking for the "Jam Nut" or quad ring for the top of the OEM Fj40 power steering gear box that goes around the input shaft on top. I was removing mine and it snapped.
Thanks for any help
