Oh yea, the price... Sorry about the price, thought it was listed... I am asking $15,500. I do currently as of yesterday have a $500 cash deposit to hold it. The buyer is supposed to have the money to me this Saturday. If the deal falls out I will keep everyone posted. Thanks

Your tire size also plays a large part in how much strain is placed on your axles. I am running a SB350, 3 spd t-case (w/tcase saver), SM420, 4.11 gears, ARB front/rear lockers and 35" tires and have had no problems. I also have a dana 44 front axle not the stock cruiser axle. I have seen...

Hangtown Extreme in Diamond Springs has done some work for me, phone number is 530-622-1412, the owner used to work for Danny Warden's in Placerville before he closed shop. Extreme Gear in Orangevale also has done work for me, Scott is the owner, phone number is 916-990-0419. Good luck.

I have tried to rebuild cylinders before with no long term success, just figured I would replace them both. There was no leakage in the system, but I would rebleed the system and a day later would have half the amount of throw in my slave cylinder. Somehow air was entering the system. I will...

Thanks for all the input, I am trying to find a local supplier in town (I live in Roseville, California) that carries them. I do not want to order the wrong parts and have to deal with shipping returns and headaches. I am going to try NAPA today and see if they can get them for me. Thanks, Fman

I had a slight lean with my springover and I installed new shackles and it corrected the problem, might be something to consider. After removing my old shackles I noticed on side was slightly bent which was causing the leaning.

Steve- Do you think it is a 1970 slave cylinder? Do you know what years of slave cylinders are the same? The kit JT is selling claims to fit E-1974, do you think it would work with my setup? and what do you think of this JT setup for $125? Thanks.. Fman

Trying to find out if this is a stock L/C FJ40 Master and slave cylinder, its out a 1970 FJ40. Please see attached pictures, the slave cylinder is connected to an SM420/SB350 combo. Also have another questions, both JT Outfitters and Cool cruisers sell a completely new clutch master/slave...

I need to replace my master/slave cylinder in my 1970 FJ-40. It appears I have the stock slave cylinder, the reason I ask is because I have an SB350/SM420 transmission combo. Does anyone know if the slave cylinder would be a stock FJ40 even with the 350/SM420 conversion, or how I can...

Thanks for the clarification! I was trying to figure out how Two Days Old helped answer the question.....:doh:

I see Cool Cruisers of Texas sells the kit for $129, seems like a fair price. Has anyone used this kit before? Spector has one for $169, cant seem to find any differences. Thanks Fman

I have a 70 FJ40 with what appears to be the stock clutch master and slave cylinder. The other day I parked the cruiser and the next morning I only had about 1/2 the throw on the slave cylinder to engage the clutch. I re-bled the system and it worked fine again until the next morning and the...
