Added a NOS dash pad, rear view mirror and got the seats and OEM seatbelts in place

If you want a cheap quick upgrade while you shop for a permanent upgrade, go out and find H9011 halogen bulbs. You will have to modify them slightly to fit the harness and housing but it’s an instant 50% improvement in output. IIRC, Rockauto...

A.J’s Yotas is proud to announce to now we offer Vapor Honing services.

I went through this and it was the intake / exhaust manifolds, are you running headers by chance? If not it could be as simple as a hose or as disappointing as a crack in the intake manifold. Pics might help us help you.

Sure sounds like a big vac leak, spray carb cleaner at the base of carb and all around intake and exhaust manifolds to see if the idle pics up. Pics of the engine bay may help the community solve your problems

Man this sure sounds like a vacuum leak, have you looked at your vacuum reading after all the work you’ve done? A rebuilt 77 carb should be a good match for your 2F.

Cool story and great looking rig, enjoy the ride!

- Driving in the desert - Spending too much time on Partsouq - Spending too much money on Partsouq - Interior deep (ish) clean - Hoarding parts for an intercooler install, almost there

How did the old oil look, was coolant visibly mixed in?

far and away more easy with the wheels off.

So, the vacuum leak…… I remember someone telling me a long time ago the monster intake like this would not work with headers. I test fitted the two and all seemed good so I ran with it. Turns out….the intake is so thick it was hitting the...

Think I sourced a replacement at the hardware store for the 40, had to use a flat washer and rubber washer to accomplish what the original part handled.

I had trouble finding this part number, it wasn't listed on the online Toyota parts dealer sites (or at least I couldn't find it), but I found it on a different parts system. NUT, WING(FOR AIR CLEANER) 90175-08008 Hopefully this helps someone...

50 psi sounds pretty robust, I’m usually aiming for 32-34 on my 10.50/15 BFG KM2s. I’m on stock steelies with 1/4” spacers and don’t rub.

Here ya go. I know the article well. I read the article a couple of times, b4 I realized the cover pic was of my 40 in all its rusty glory. https://kinzers.com/don/landcruiser/tcase_tech/

New radiator is in with the blue clutch fan. It seemingly cools so good i had a hard time getting to temp for the thermostat to open and bleed the system. We’ll see what happens when i take it up the mountain. Hope it keeps nice and cool now.

That interesting about airflow at different speeds. I didn’t think of that. A new OEM radiator is on the way (comes with the foam) and a blue hub clutch fan. I got the non-modified version so i could modify it to my liking if needed.

Hadn’t ordered the bumper/winch yet. Only the sliders. I have always like the shirt bus. It is simple and not bulky looking. In my opinion it looks best on an 80 with minimal lift like mine.

Reach out to this guy: @4Cruisers - Rebuilt an '86 FJ60 dizzy a few years ago when I installed it along with a Holley Sniper setup on my 40.

Large cap FJ60 here with a Jim C rebuild and recurve, many years of solid service. Echo @1911 that parts are getting hard to find if it ever lays an egg.

I’ll take it

Scooped the Avid off road rear bumper from powder coat. Found the origin of the garbage handling…

All depends on where you live I guess - I never lock mine at home.

i live life day to day...some times i even take the key out of it.

Hey Gman, better add this bad boy to your garage.
