    Zero point calibration not working

    I'm having an issue with My GX 470 that pretty closely pertains to this thread. In techstream, there seems to be a disparity between the steering angle reading listed in the KDSS data list compared with the ABS/VSC data list. With the steering wheel centered the reading in the ABS/VSC data list...

    AIRBAG Spacers

    I made a couple revisions to the spacer setup I posted earlier. I drilled and tapped a hole in the lower air spring locating pin. I then threaded in a rod of sufficient length to protrude from the bottom of the spacer about 3/4". This will insure the spring base doesn't unseat from spacer when...

    Extended airbags vs rear coils

    I recently posted this on another airbag thread. Thought I'd repost here since the other thread hadn't seen recent activity. I fabricated some rear airbag spacers fairly easily from some high strength ABS 2"x 4"x 12" bar stock. The minimum bar length was 12" from Mcmaster-Carr. I used a 4x4x2...

    AIRBAG Spacers

    I fabricated some rear airbag spacers fairly easily from some high strength ABS 2"x 4"x 12" bar stock. The minimum bar length was 12" from Mcmaster-Carr. I used a 4x4x2 piece and left it square to provide a more solid base for the spring to seat on. I drilled a circular channel using a 3 7/8...

    FJ 60 Roof dimensions

    Thanks much for the detailed information. I was checking to see if the dimensions were similar enough to the Mitsubishi Montero I currently have. Thought it could be a possibility to use the poptop unit that Campteq makes for the 60 series. I recently sold an HDJ81 cruiser, so I knew the 80...

    FJ 60 Roof dimensions

    Hi. I'm hoping someone can provide me with the dimensions of the 60 series roof. Straight line width from gutter to gutter and length from top of windshield to rear gutter. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks John

    HDJ81 issues when cold - fixed

    Good deal. Glad you were able to get it sorted out. Air in the fuel seems to be able to create quite a range of issues.

    HDJ81 issues when cold - fixed

    When I had some hard cold start issues a ways back it ended up being fuel related. The problem seemed to resolve once I replaced the fuel filter primer pump assembly. Also replaced the top and bottom filter o rings along with the drain cock o ring. From what I've read, the pump plunger...

    Rust Repair - What would you do with this?

    I had to do a significant repair on both left and right floor pans. Perhaps more lower firewall than floor pan. After watching a variety of body repair videos, I decided on a method using fiberglass cloth saturated with POR15. I put a layer of cloth on the inside and once it was dry I put a...

    1991 RHD 1HDT hdj81 Power Side MIrrors

    I just got my folding mirrors working correctly thanks to the helpful info in this thread. The issue was with the worm gear on the motor shaft as often seems to be the case. One thing I might add. The mounting screw on the front of my motor was loose, which allowed the motor to move around a...
