Ever since I acquired my fj45, I've been dreaming about getting some custom, vintage style fabric / leather combination upholstery. At simplest, I am thinking something FJ60 style and at wildest maybe some sort of Pendleton wool fabric. I'm surprised there aren't more examples out there on the...
Hot damn! That's a big boi. Some day I feel like I will end up with a troop carrier style vehicle that also functions as a camper, but with how much time and money I have invested into this truck, I'll hold on to it for now....unless I miraculously come across a killer deal on a restored Capri...
Oh really? I can hear mine just fine. Sure, I have to crank it up a bit loud to cover the wind noise, but I also have 4 speakers with a bit of power. I have a 4 channel amp with about 260W total RMS and a separate 100W sub. It's definitely overkill for an FJ45 truck cab, but it's a future proof...
Yeah, so can confirm that rotating the outer, right know does skip track. It is just annoying to use and finicky. I wonder if there is a way to tap into that knob to add a button that performs the same action. I'm guessing it would be difficult or impossible because of the way those rotary...
Hard to tell from the pic, but that miiiiight be a FJ45LV. Those things are crazy expensive if you can find them. I think they only made them in much older model runs too.
Oh interesting! I hadn't come across a FJ45 truck resto of theirs...I was always too busy lusting after their FJ45 troopy converted to 4 door (honestly, I really hope to do this some day - modernize a 45 troopy, make it more comfortable, add 2 doors, and have it be a do it all people hauler /...
huh...honestly, I don't know. I'll check. It still would be nice to have a switch closer by, but if I can achieve it with knob as it is, maybe not worth it.
Hey, All. I have a custom Retro Sound stereo installed in my FJ45. I connect my iPhone to the radio using either a USB input or bluetooth. I'd love to have track skip (up and down) buttons wired in to avoid fiddling with my phone to skip tracks (spotify, podcasts, etc.).
Has anyone ever wired...
Took her for a long test drive today and she ran great! Fired up cold this morning, no choke, with about 3 seconds of cranking. After warming up she fired up in like half a second and quickly came to a consistent idle. I have the stereo all hooked up as well. I highly doubt this was ever part...
