Tactical solution.

I believe @Racer65 has them.

I got mine for Spector . and they fit perfect . Everything else i got from City Racer all quality products

Yes, tighten the spring until the wind doesn't effect the wing window. Leave the whole plug out until they're both set.

I did the same. Nice.

here is the vent window hardware as it was on mine - full disclosure, I'm not sure that this is factory correct but it seems to make sense. There is a nylon washer followed by a thick washer - both have a larger bore in order to go over the...

Imagine the frustration of enjoying a drive with the windshield down and suddenly the sunvisors start opening…. the first world problems we have to deal with. I fabricated a pair of straps to hold them in place. I repurposed some MOLLE webbing &...

I finally got my fj40 engine swap done as of Sunday/Monday No more leaky worn out SBC now it has a beautiful 2f. Its running and driving! I apologize about the vertical video quality.

It all looks fantastic! Question- where did you get your vent window rubber seal? I got mine from Specter Off Road (aftermarket) and it fit perfectly. The problem is that the drivers side whistles badly unless I open it. The passenger side is...

The vent window gasket was straighforward as well. There is a ribbed section that presses into the channel. A little soapy water to slide it in and it easily popped in and conformed to the frame

the mounting holes for the glass trim. the inner strip comes with the attachment clips attached, the outer wiper does not. I thought I had some of the clips but couldn't find them so I need to address that - 6 per door are needed. Apparently...

Starting to put my doors back together after painting etc. I couldn't find much on the 2 piece doors so I figured I'd share. the felts etc. Everything still available from Toyota except the vent window (?) - not sure where I picked that up but it...

No real reason to put these on now other than to get them off my workbench before I break them... considering the condition the vehicle was in when I got it, they are in decent shape

I put in my rear view mirrors. Started out as an aftermarket parts project, then reading old threads and checking with Toyota, I never knew how affordable they are, I should have done this decades ago. Honestly, the factory hardware isn’t that...

Did that thing where you take an extra head bolt and cut a groove in it then run it in and out of the head bolt holes to make sure they are all clear or something.

I think mine sat for 11+ years. Fresh gas and scraped the points. Pulled the plugs and cranked it over until it built oil pressure. Put them back in and it fired right up. Installed new clutch master, slave and hose. New master and slaves...

A bit of routine maintenance: Changed air and fuel filters. Also, the vent window latch plates had been painted over. So, scraped off the paint and polished them a bit. And added a pair of heater hose hangers to side cover courtesy of...

I took the winch off and installed a small 4-rod carrier to the bumper. I’m pretty sure the little B engine is happy with the change cause it’s now hauling less weight and the radiator is getting better air flow.

Some better pictures of the glass install - huge shout out to City Racer for all the help on the gaskets... amazing customer service

@BrownWolf Nice clean job…. Of course welding in some metal will outlive many other fixes. Still, it looks great. If you have access to an air compressor…give it a go with a $29 harbor freight gun and some quality (still cheap) enamel. My...

I drove my Fj40 for the first time since late December early January. albeit only 10 feet but It moved under its own power after a engine swap back to a 2f from a SBC. I still need to button up a few things but I am excited to say the end of the...

There was an eclipse? I was busy all afternoon drilling out spot welds on my original oil pan to see if I wanted to repair or send to the scrapyard. Yeesh.

Custom seat frame and sliders in process. Jason TT

Worked on my rear brakes yesterday before the eclipse. Trying to figure out the low pedal. I guess ill tear them apart again and adjust more. 3 pumps and then great pedal. No air in the system. Planning a rear bar on the roll bar for the family...
