    What Color is my ‘71 40?

    I'd like to also add, the chart is close but not 100% which I've mentioned before. Our 6/70 37k documented original mile, non-repainted roof is Lily white not Cygnus which isn't even mentioned on some charts-but some charts show it for later years even through it was used for Toyota's Corona...

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    Yes! It's one of the best single purchases I've done with less struggles it sounds like (technically, I've done it twice-once with ES, the second with CruiserCult's offerings).

    Issue with Air Cleaner not reaching down to carb

    I've purchased the Sor spacer and it's not that great of quality (it strips out really easy/failing) and because I like buying/doing things twice I ordered the Redline one. I'd give Justin a call at Redlinelandcruisers for an infinitely better quality product.

    Which leaves to remove?

    BTW, one is supposed to cut the extra length off the u-bolts, so they don't get caught up on the trail snags.

    Front shackle appears to be slanted

    I had the similar problem, it ended up being a mis-machined shoulder on a pin. 1 pin was machined shorter than the other. It was replaced under warranty.

    Build 70 FJ40 (Here we go!)

    the second link is for the earlier 40's-there are 2 links above, but yes, I believe I bought the 75+ and it worked before the pre-75 was available. Or as stated, you can use any off the shelf hose cut to length. FWIW, our LC is a 6/70 with 37K original documented miles.

    Build 70 FJ40 (Here we go!)

    1st pic-CityRacerLLC has them or use hose from local parts store to connect to valve cover. The nipple under the air cleaner is connected to a hardline that run from (between the brake booster/parking brake cable) up along the firewall (above the vacuum t-case lines), down the pass-firewall...

    Resto Q & A

    Yes, out of phase. Just disconnect at the diff., un-slide it at slip yoke, rotate so both the zerks and the yokes are in alignment.

    Build 1969 FJ40 named Mavis

    Could it have been the hidden, evil fuse holder under the cowl vent/behind the heater? It's red/green-related to the hazards
