Thanks! Im following the cable now. Its totally messed up. well, its just a painstaking job :(

Yep, i got this, but its really hard to say wich cable this actually is. If anybody knew it would be great. Here is the big version http://www.flickr.com/photos/dieseldragon/1571090586/sizes/o/ BJ40 (and maybe 42) Wiring Diagram by dieseldragon, on Flickr

Uploaded a image right now. Im just wondering where it goes from here. Its a huge job to follow the wire (its all taped). I'm wondering if its maybe the main ground cable for the chassis. So maybe i could cut it and make a new cable from the chassis to the frame or - on the battery. Its a...

Hi! I have a problem on a friends FJ(BJ)40. The ground cable that's boltet to the fuse box, its slightly burnt. So, my question is. Where does the cable go? Is it distributed to many places, or does it go from the fuse box to one point some other place. If so where does it lead?

Thanks JD. The reason i have to triplecheck everything is that- if i order the wrong parts to Norway, there is no "practical" way to ship it back to the US. Believe me, i have tried. I also talked to Nitro Gears. They also say that the 4.10 and 4.11 is the "same". So, ill order a set of...

Now im more confused than ever. I called justdifferentials.com. And i wanted to order a 4.11 RP set. My diff got 37/9 tooth count. (4.111111111111111). Justdifferentials has a 4,10 kit. The guy at JustDifferentials was a 120% sure the 4.10 and 4.11 was the same. Hmmmmmm. What to do...

Thank you all. I thaught maybe 4.10 vs 4.11 was just a "matter of speach" and was in fact the same. But its not? Sounds strange since the 9,5" rear on these cars often got 4.11.

Thanks! I know Toyota does some minor changes now and then. So i was a little confused when i checked parts numbers on 80 and 75 differential parts. They are not the same. But that doesnt mean they dont mix :) EDIT: Are they also the same as LJ70/73 HP Rev diffs? In Short, Toyota only have one...

Hi! Does anyone know if the HZJ75 HP differential use the same Ring & Pinion and bearings as the HDJ80 HP diff? In short, is the 75 HP diff the same as a 80 HP diff?

Thanks for the replys! Then it should be ok then. I also use the press to get them started. Also none of my own diffs got crush sleeves. The one I did a couple of weeks ago was for a friend. I told him about solid spacer, but he wasn't interested. I don't hate crush sleeves. I just don't trust...

Thanks! You used the shim trick? Or the pipe and hammer trick? ibinazbass : Im not sure i did understand what you meant, can you give me a bit more info on how you do that?

I know its not the right way, but when the shops are closed, and your out of spare parts and you just have to get that diff finished. I was doing a diff today, and i got a new crush sleeve. But it struck me, if i added a small shim to the old crush sleeve and then crushed it again- wouldnt...

Well i figured it out. It was me that was stupid, atleast semi stupid :) But i must say, they could make that template a whole lot better. Now i just have to order a new antenna, cause of course this car has the power antenna. And this snorkel and the power antenna does not agree.. I dont know...

You are probably right about the "Norwegian/European version". I guess the turn signals and antenna is altered in some markets. Ill play around with it for a while and se if it ads up. Thanks!
