    FJ55 Brake questions

    Thanks guys. I think I am going to get the adaptor for the 60 booster or cut the rib and make the 60 booster work. The mechanics at spector I talked to had no solutions and said to just cut the rib out.

    Brake Booster Questions Disc Conversion

    I swapped a front axle disc setup from a 60 into my 70 FJ55. I had the booster and MC from the 60 for the upgrade also. I went to put the bosster in and it is a different bolt pattern and a support rib on the firewall is in the way. I have done some research and still can't figure out what...

    FJ55 Brake questions

    I got the axle swapped in and realized that the fj60 booster I have doesn't fit flush to the firewall due to a support "rib" on the firewall. Is there any other booster that can bolt up to the 60 MC? Should the rib just be cut out and make the 60 booster work? Suck it up and get the $60...

    55 radiator woes

    I am looking for a new radiator for my pig with a sbc 350. Two radiator shops didn't think summits or speedways aluminum ones would sufficiently cool a 350. Both wanted about $425 to recore the original with 4 row high efficiency cores. Kind of steep for me. What do you all think is the way...

    1970 fj55 horn placement

    Like an idiot, my horns were taken off my rig and I am rewiring the truck and dont know where both horns were mounted. I know they were on the passenger side but don't know the exact placements. Anyone have pictures?

    FJ55 radiator

    I am now leaning towards getting an aluminum one. I've found a couple that look like they would fit and are somewhat affordable. The stock one used side mounts. All the new ones I see use top and bottom brackets or weld on side mounts. Anyone have any experience installing an aftermarket...

    FJ55 radiator

    I'm a long time viewer but first time poster. I have an 86 fj60 and I recently bought a 70 fj55. The 55 needs wiring and a new radiator. After reading about radiators for the 55's, I took mine to a local shop to see how much it would run to recore the sucker. I got a quote today for $400...
