In my days of youth, I had a after school job at a trucking company where I changed many semi tires on split rims.
Beyond concurring with the advice that has already been shared, we used automatic transmission fluid as the lube for mounting...
They're 5.5 inch wide, so officially you need quite narrow tyres. 205R16, 7.50R16, 225/95R16. 205R16 is very easy to find, but is on the smaller side for a Land Cruiser. 7.50R16 is readily available in most parts of the world. 225/95R16 is as far...
That seems like probably the right move. You could maybe use some vice grips to clamp off the hose while you work. Whenever I open a new slave cylinder box, the rod wants to pop out, so I think the only thing holding it in (and holding the piston...
It can’t be that far off. Can’t. That’s a rabbit hole you don’t need to go down. If you’re not comfortable with grinding a little off the tip, take a die and put a few more threads on the rod. M10x1.25.
Over the last four decades I’ve probably...
Sell it and improve the quality of life for someone excited to get it fixed up right :D
If you think I'm retiring on the handful of NOS AISIN master cylinders we have in stock, I'd love to sell you a business with the inventory so you can retire...
I am proud to be a part of Solid Axle Summit! I enjoy the people I get to work with, and I enjoy the people that get to join us. I like putting names and faces to mud-handles, though I do not remember them all, but I do try. We, directors and...
I won the fj60 fusible link replacement kit. Idk if that's what you are referring to but it looks like a very nice setup.
Unfortunately I don't have a 60 series. I may have to buy one now.
Hello,
15x8 wheels are better for 33 in. tires.
Avoid spacers. They will only cause your axle bearings to wear out faster.
33 x 12.5 tires will not only rub. They will wear out your axle bearings faster. Ask me how I know.
Big and wide...
hey @Beastiethe70 ! great to meet you in line up before the photo!!! so many cool 70 series.
Of course, I could repeat the glowing descriptions of this area, the awesome people, the chill welcoming vibe...it was just plain great!!!!
I gotta...
Been there done that - unless your moving spring perch hangers its not a quick easy move
That being said my 60 is heavy and I absolutely love them
Is it a straight forward swap - not at all
Can it be done somewhat easily - sure can
You...
