To late, and a dead thread, but like our cruisers some get revived.
Anyhow following exactly the pictures above will render you with a shortened alternator, in the picture the black white E wire should be "turned" 90 degrees to the left, because...
Replacing Alternator Brushes on BJ40 (pt. 2)
Picture below shows my worn alternator brushes alongside their replacement component (Bosh GB710 - part number: 9121064313-4BR readily available from Australian parts vendor 'AutoPro') for about AUD...

More information on this thread I thought might be useful - I have exactly the same model of alternator on my '78 BJ40, and...
It eliminates interference in the exhaust between cylinders. The firing order shows why 1-5-3-6-2-4. Very oversimplified, but if the energy from 1 and 5 are on the same manifold, 1 hasn’t cleared when 5 is about to join the show. 1 will slow 5...
I'm a tech guy who wishes he worked on old cars all day. But I don't, so it's just a hobby and I'm pretty mediocre. Good with carbs and cylinder heads … that's about as far as it goes.
So when I picked up a SBC-swapped FJ-60 for my wife that...
Mine did the same (test in sand to see lockup) and the right side cilinder was stuck (throw away, not to be moved by any force)
But if you have new, maybe remove the drum and see if it moves at all?
If the left drum is on then the right side...
It’s not clear, did you replace the hoses? I have a C5500 which I had done a brake job on and immediately experienced a hard pull to the passenger side. I had a brake hose on the front passenger caliper which had failed internally. It was causing...
Hi! I’ve had the same problem for weeks. Also from the Netherlands. Finally installed a VPN and that works for now.
That’s a crazy amount of bots! Hopefully you find a fix for this, until then a VPN is the solution.
All 12v winches work on 24v , so you can try that (not joking here, I do not want to burn out your winch, it works), but 24v is better in power and speed.
The only thing is that serie 24v is 2x100 amp=100 (winch takes about 225 Amp)
And in...
Do you have a spare car to drive when the 40 is a week offline for maintenance?
Because I think whatever you buy it will need work, and some is a weekend and some a few weeks.
I bought at the lowest of the market so a lot of work but for me it is...
I've been searching this forum and the web for awhile and am starting to get frustrated. I just got a 2.5" OME kit from Man-a-fre and they shipped everything but instructions :mad:! What is the correct orientation of the anti-inversion...
Hi everyone,
I won an '84 60 series on a Dutch auction (Troostwijk) but the car itself was located in Romania. Weirdly enough a perfect match for me since I am both Dutch and Romanian :) Took a way to big trailer, slapped it behind my Subaru...
Temp gauge is normal.
Clutch fan should roar on a cold start when you rev the vehicle. If the vehicle gets warm (i.e., gauge reading near the red) you should hear the fan roaring as well. The fans on these trucks are very loud.
