    Need manual for HJ61 factory cable lockers

    I have factory cable lockers that actuate by pulling up on handles on the center console. It has a push-button 2-4 switch like 62's. Right now, I can't engage the rear without engaging the front as well. Does anyone have a manual for them or can direct me to a source? Thanks! D

    Help with an FJ60 purchase

    Agree with all of above. My '85 FJ60 has 178k on it and no leaks but it did when I got it. Also, if parts aren't working, he didn't have the money, interest, or both to keep it up so there might be other, more expensive things he let slide. Not deal breakers, negotiating points :-)...

    jump start a diesel?

    LOL--Okay--if I get stuck I'll look for a steam engine! I was really wondering about times when we're out there by ourselves. I can barely push my truck on a flat paved surface so I was curious. Always park on a hill in the wilderness I guess.

    jump start a diesel?

    I've been wondering what to do if the batteries go flat in the middle of nowhere. Push starting seems like it wouldn't work because of the high compression ratio unless you had a *really* steep hill Any suggestions?

    Best Bike Rack for FJ 60

    Another reason not to put them on the roof: I've almost had my bikes peeled off the roof by low branches when driving fireroads

    Calif.DMV, BAD news

    Did the question of whether or not you were using a registered importer get answered?

    My 60 is heating up in traffic jams!!

    I had two and they both overheated after I'd first bought them, especially after getting off the freeway and then idling at a light. Both were fixed permanently by having the radiators recored.

    for sale: 89 FJ62 with blown engine

    gone The owner just e-mailed to say it's no longer available, whatever that means. By the way, I don't know that much about HJ's but shouldn't it have had kilometers per hour in the outer ring of the speedometer?
