My transfer case was puking ATF; two different PO receipts from a ‘cruiser specialist shop showed the output seal had been replaced multiple times - that PO paid for everything to be done and I think the shop in question just filled the tcase up with ATF to avoid having to do the input seal. It...

Well, darn, saw the USB pre-order and made it, but had to discuss the trailer hitch harness with my CFO and missed out.

The label sheet worked great for this switch on my FJ62, thanks! Any chance of a ‘2LO’ label? I want to add a disconnect for the FJ62’s automatic 4wd when using low range.

I have a sneaking hunch that a lot of the slop is in the 32+ year old steering ujoints. I have 2; I still need to find the one closest to the box.

The stock radiator cooler. It’s perfect for a power steering cooler since the box and pump are on opposite sides of the engine, as are the cooler input/output. I also added a magnetic filter into the return line.

The 80 box upgrade is to a 105 sector shaft. The pitman has to be upgraded at that point because the shaft is a different size; you’ll also have to change out the tie rod end. I’m running a stock (rebuilt) 62 pump with an 80 box on 33” tires. I can turn with one finger. The only reason I have...

Inside the dash would be a good spot. A bluetooth sniffer would direct a thief to the stereo.

I’m going to end up ordering so much stuff from you… I’m interested in a plain 4 plug trailer harness. I don’t want to tow anything heavy enough to require a brake controller. If the 62 USB outlet could fit/reach into the blank below the stereo it would work perfectly with an ashtray-delete...

Follow-up: Say I want to change out the hard line fitting on the supply line; what size fittings are those? M14x1.5 inverted flare?

It looks like mine are toast, too. If Matt had a replacement I would go that route but it looks like I’ll be doing the copper-nickel replacement fix instead. I also want to know why that bracket isn’t attached…

Why do you need a power upgrade with 33” tires? If your current system is insufficient you need to figure out what’s not working.

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I’m curious about the rear radius arm mount on the frame in relation to a late-FJ60 crossmember. Specifically, I have your brackets welded on my FJ62, and it looks like the crossmember brackets + radius arm would be fighting for the same space. Any pictures...

How do the radius arms fit with a later 60 crossmember? I have an H55F in my FJ62 and it looks like the crossmember brackets are welded to the frame at almost exactly the same spot.

I’m in the same camp, but I prefer to have my phone plugged in. I have a USB port already installed in the switch blank above the ashtray but the cord then hangs out in the open to the center console. If I had a cubby to just stick my phone in that would be awesome. I use silicone sleeves, so...

FYI, there is adjustment in the shifter. It’s kind of a PITA to do with the carpet in place but it is possible.
