Thanks for the reply: I agree, very simple box. I am thinking the same thing: If I remove some of the current spacers it might do the trick. Thats what the FSM states anyways; Add spaccers to loosen, remove to tighten. If I remove the front right fender it will be breeze to remove the...

Not sure how we say its good with with 2-3" of play left after the rebuild. FSM states 1.5" - 2" If you still have play over that, you might have an issue elsewhere I am not sure any steering play of 2-3"+ inches is within spec in most vehicles: So I have to ask, how much play did you...

I havent read all responses: Dont be too dissapointed, and accept the fact it is a USED CAR..... Did you drive it before you purchased it? If you didn't, its a lesson learned 1. Get factory service manual. Haynes/Clymer will do, but a FSR is the best 2. Drum brakes: Remember, your...

Two questions: 1. Recommend shock absorbers for 1967 FJ40, with stock springs. Looking for medium priced shocks 2, What other vehicles (cross ref) run the same shocks as a fj40?
