cims1970fj40's latest activity

Lean - must be really lean if it can't support combustion. Way too rich will not burn properly either. What about build up on the injector nozzle - doesn't vaporize the fuel properly so it can burn correctly. Leaks so fuel is dribbling in all...

Trailered Otis the ’76 FJ40 home to Utah on Saturday after a smooth purchase in Steamboat Springs, CO. On Sunday I had to introduce him to the Utah mountains.

Thanks. It looks like I responded to that thread last year when the body was painted but I don’t recall seeing anything after that. Nice Cruiser!

I run a scout box and a gm pump. In the past I ran sag steering with the box out front. I've always used a jeep cj7 h/p line. The cj7 line has a long relatively straight section of metal line that ran along the frame to the steering box...

Thanks brother!

Here ya go Post in thread 'The Mule.' The Mule. - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/the-mule.171155/post-4509761

Actually, this would be an update to “What Have You Done to Your Land Cruiser this Week”. I figured I should have tried to keep it under under some kind of build activity but…it’s all over the place. I had this universal power windows install...

Took it for a Sunday drive with a couple of old friends.

If you guys could post some pictures of your hoses that would be great. My steering box is a cardone 27-6529.

I’ve been out of the net, chased by the dragon, AKA the “Honey Do List”. I wanted to point out one of the add on features from the guys at Alexander Restorations - @Atram. Weatherstrip added to the front side bow sub assembly. This adds a...

So I stopped at the shop that was closed on Friday and they believe it was not crimped properly. Also the hose is hydraulic and not a power steering hose. That being said I’m probably will run down to summit racing tomorrow and see what’s...

That is just a flare so you should not need anything but the flared tube to the fitting. I think @pb4lugo means a seal or oring behind the fitting the line runs into. I just looked at mine and there is no way to tell without attempting to...

I have removed various repaints to expose mine 😉

Yeah right! Honestly I wasn’t a fan of it originally when I bought mine from my dad but has grown on me. I wanted to keep the original color.

Club run in Big Bear, great weather, great trails, great friends!

Drove around to check out a trout stream i know about.

Camped and lead our LC club on a few runs through the local mountains.

These are 3D printed knobs with added graphics + clear coating. $22/pair + $5 shipping Let me know, Mo

I don’t believe so but will have to look.

Its hard tell, but it looks good. I think theres an O ring behind that fitting. Is there any imperfections on the hose fitting.

Here are some photos

I thought the fittings were interchangeable, but can't say for sure.

I believe there are two styles of pumps just like two styles of boxes. O-ring or flare connections. I assume you verified that the pump you have is for a flared pressure hose and not an oring hose? (From the pic I can't see inside the connection...

Thanks! I can’t remember if my dad had the pump already or if I had bought it. Either way it’s been awhile so not sure. I have a camera that I bought last year to attach to my iPhone so I’ll take a closer look to verify.

Honestly I’m not sure exactly where it’s leaking. I was filming the engine running and happened to check to make sure the power steering belt was running and noticed it was leaking. I shut the engine off right afterwards because I didn’t want to...
