Any update on the quality of these 24v prowinches? I am looking to get a 24v winch for my hzj73. Thanks!

Anyone know what is meant to be mounted to the upper rear passenger side portion of this 1976 FJ40? Picture attached. There are 2 small holes on this truck that look like they are from the factory. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Folks, So I wanted to upgrade the headlights on my HZJ73 Land Cruiser. When I got it from Japan the previous owner had installed Zenon bulbs and after a few months of ownership the aftermarket ballast went. Instead of replacing the ballast, I simply deleted it and got some LED bulbs...

Yes, Kingston area to be specific

Anyone know of someone in Ontario Canada who could rebuild the carb on my original 78 fj40? The truck was sitting for about a decade when I got it and no matter what I do (aside from a carb rebuild), I can't get it running just right.

Hi all, I am looking at purchasing a land cruiser 79 series pickup for use around my farm. The way I see it, I could get a reliable Toyota diesel (1VD-FTV 4.5L) truck for not much more then a used chevy, dodge or ford. I feel it would also hold its value better. Up here in Canada we are now...

Hi, I am looking for a first generation 1985-1989 Toyota 4runner to be used as as an ocasional driver and do small camping trips with my family. Does not have to be perfect but minimum/no rust is preferred. I am located in Ontario, Canada, but willing to make a trip for the right vehicle...

I have gotten it into second while downshifting, it is just really tough and most of the time it grinds. Goes into gear no problem while shifting up from first, or if the vehicle is off. I will check the adjustment on the clutch though, maybe that will do it.

I picked up a 1979 FJ40 with a 4 speed manual a couple years back and almost done making it road worthy. It still has a couple issues that I haven't been able to resolve however. One is that when driving, it won't downshift into second gear (it grinds rather than going into gear). I guess...

Thanks for the advice, I was looking at pulling a small car hauler with a load of 1500lbs, which sounds like it might be too much for my hzj73 with bumper mounted trailer hitch.

How much can this type of bumper mounted hitch tow?

Thanks for the information! Just outside of Kingston, I will give those places a try, thanks for the info!

Hi, i'm working on restoring a 1979 FJ40, I live in Ontario. I used to get parts shipped to a post office in New York state and would drive across to pick them up, but can't currently do that. Just wondering if anyone knows of a parts supplier located this side of the boarder? Any information...

Good morning folks, I recently acquired a 1979 FJ40 that was buried in leaves and snow. Now that I got it home and cleaned up, it appears to be mostly original. One thing I am not sure about however are the rims. Did FJ40s in 1979 only come with the split steel rims, or were the white rims...
