    FJ62 Mystery Plugs and Headlights?

    Sorting through some FJ62 (1988) headlight wiring woes. Can someone please start by educating me on what the blue female connector (drivers side) and the white female connector (pax side) are intended for? Photos attached. Headlight washers maybe? (Truck not equipped). It seems they would...

    Headlight troubleshooting thread

    Jumping on this old thread as I sort through some of my own FJ62 (1988) headlight wiring woes. @slcfj62 or anyone else here please start by educating me on what the blue female connector (drivers side) and the white female connector (pax side) are intended for? Photos attached. It seems they...

    High Mileage Lubricants.

    Thanks! Which VR1 were you eyeballing? 10w30? Good temperature range I guess… but maybe a little thin for the hotter summer days? I’ll take a dive into the Lucas 20w50. Thanks.

    High Mileage Lubricants.

    Thanks… did you mean T4 15w-40? I’m not seeing a 5w-40 in the T4. Only a Rotella 5w-40 in the fully synthetic T6. Additionally which zddp additive do you like and how much? Thanks!!!

    High Mileage Lubricants.

    Seems “fine”… but only basing that on the OEM pressure gauge. Probably not the most accurate representation.

    SOLD 1978 FJ40 Gas Tank.

    Removed from my ‘78 last year. Good condition, certainly usable/serviceable. ANY reasonable offer and it’s yours! Local preferred, probably not economical to ship. Thanks.

    FJ62 compressor replacement and 134a conversion

    Thanks @yotadude520… kind of what I was thinking, but shouldn’t there also be a conversion fitting on the high side as well!? Isn’t the present threaded high fitting the OEM R12 fitting? Thanks to everyone for guidance here. Plan to run the truck by an old school AC shop in the next few days and...

    FJ62 compressor replacement and 134a conversion

    Evening, 1988 FJ62… based on the attached photos, is this R12 or has it been converted to R134? I’m guessing still R12… but what do the educated experts here say? Thank you in advance. -Tom

    Squeaking and scratching noises when turn wheel left or right...

    Thanks! I actually just split the halves on the plastic column cover yesterday and was able to access the horn pin and ring from the back side. Didnt clean it, but applied a layer of dielectric to the ring for now and problem solved. Smooth, quiet and the horn still works! When I have more...

    Squeaking and scratching noises when turn wheel left or right...

    Old thread here… but where exactly did you add the dielectric and how did you access this spot? My 62 sounds like a Star Wars TIE Fighter when the steering wheel is turned. Thanks!
