It may be to the point where the trust is gone and you either do it yourself or take it somewhere else. I just had to do this with a very simple order from a well known Land Cruiser parts seller. The "very simple" order got screwed up several different ways and continuing to straighten it out...

861 is the best color, so your dad lucked out. But you already know that!

I’ve seen Good State Parts on social media and wondered about their legitimacy. They look a bit more “real” than the very obvious scammers, but they don’t seem to have a presence here in the US, where I’m at, so I wasn’t really sure. Thanks for letting us know they’re reputable!

Thanks Justin! I also have two pair that I can bring to the US soon. Any interest? PM me.

I’m jealous!

Justin, these windows are installed in such a simple way that people think WAY to hard about it. To get them out you removed the welting on the inside and literally just pull them off. Might need some gentle levering with a tool as @ttxpc says, since they’re “glued” to the body pinch weld with...

Any quality connector is going to be fine. Personally, I would choose connectors that handle the same number of wires as the original connectors though - it will make future troubleshooting easier. If you need help with something and look at somebody else’s original harness, chasing wires could...

Worse comes to worse, I would opt to get a used harness from Classic Cruisers down in Poncha Springs before getting a Painless or other aftermarket harness. Hooking one of those up would be a TON of work whereas you know where everything in the stock harness goes. Either would take some time...

Man, I was going to say grounds or the fusible link being the culprit ... but you already bought my FLRK kit. Thanks for that by the way. I'm a fellow FJ60 daily driver so I feel for you. Gotta keep the truck in service and there isn't the luxury of putting it in downtime to solve an issue. I...

I didn’t see you taking that photo at all! Sneaky! Where was this??

Still looking for whomever won the FJ62 Fusible Link Replacement Kit at the raffle. Brown box about one foot cubed with “62 FLRK” and “Cruiser Trash Parts” on it. Fuse panel, big metal bracket, and a bunch of wires inside. That one needs some personal instruction so I really need to get with the...

Why have two parts when you can have one? Less stuff to fall on the floor and roll 10' away under the tool chest.

Rear axle delete @RevISK I got up that rutted twisty thing on the first shot, but with no locker I have to carry momentum. It's a bouncy ride.

Quit braggin'! And yeah, one of the turns on that short stretch was pretty dang rutted out last year. It's also the steepest 20' of the trail. I can see a locker there.

Definitely running rich. Wildcard, but do you know for sure your HAC works? You could absolutely pass smog in San Diego with an inop HAC because it doesn't do anything at sea level. As you go higher in elevation the oxygen per volume of air is less. The HAC compensates for that above 4000' by...
