Seve, I was able to remove the light from the switch, it looks more like an LED than a bulb it's got long leads that wrap aroung the small connector that fits in the Switch. I visited my local Toyota dealer and they are ordering it for me, Part No. 00234-00158, and less than a buck, what a...

Would anyone know the part no. for the little led like bulb that backlights the 4WD button on a 62? I have looked at the local parts stores, but I don't find one. Any help is greatly appreciated. Jesse

I would like a copy as well, this is really nice! jalmag1013@charter.net Thanks, Jesse A.

Thanks, the fact that it runs so well now makes me feel a whole lot better. I just thought It would quiet down some instead of getting louder.

Hello, I have a question for those more experienced: I just adjusted the valves on my 88 FJ62 270K Miles. The engine idles and runs great, like never before, but I can hear the valves louder than before. I did notice when adjusting them that some were too tight and I could not fit the feeler...

Barry, if you email me at jalmag1013@charter.net I have some pics of you and your truck. I could not up-load them to the site, my files are too big. Thanks, Jesse A.

Thanks to all for letting me and my Family joint your group at Gray Rock. We had a blast!! I know now what I need to do to my FJ62 to hang in there better. I hope to be better prepared next time. Jesse Lucy Jasmine

On Board Shower Hello, I made my own on Board Shower. Purchased a Dayton Tube and Shell Heat Exchanger and plumed it with some Ball Valves to control water flow and a Temp. Guage. I used a 2.8 GPM Shurflo pump and some misc. connections, relay. The whole thing installed was about $100.00...

Hello, I am adding an after market temp gauge to my 88 FJ62, I would like to keep the existing Temp Sender as well. Does anyone know the Thread size of the existing Temp Sender? Thanks, Jesse A. :cheers:

Thanks, I do have some time wrenching on my FJ62, have done the usual, brakes tune-up, steering and now working on doing the Knuckles. I do have a leak on the Valve cover which I am also going to replace and do the valves at the same time. I have cleaned and re-torqued both valve cover and oil...

3fE Oil Pan Gasket Replacement Hello, I am about to change the oil pan gasket on my 88 FJ62 with 260K Miles. The question I have is: There are some markings on the OEM gasket, are they for orientation? Also any tips or things I should know going into it? Thanks, Jesse

J-dub, I purchased my 88 FJ62 after a 10 minute drive and visual inspection, did all the normal services Oils, Tune up and such. Then drove it 1300 miles from TX to AL no problems it has 257,000 miles on it now and runs better than when I purchased it. Trust your Cruiser it will get you home.
