joesfj40 replied to the thread Builds Build: 75 Fj55 "Los Lobos".Hummm where do I start with the latest… About a week ago I located a front axle off a FJ40. The yard that had it wasn’t too familiar with Land Cruisers so I purchased a majority of the other large items that were still salvageable. 😂 (slight...

Saweet find! Perfect shape. And some tools to add to the toolkit too! I saw a film years ago at an outdoor sports show that showed some dudes hunting pigs in Texas with air guns. Just sayin’ 😂…

joesfj40 replied to the thread Builds Build: 75 Fj55 "Los Lobos".Had talked about that first initial “vroom” Here it is idle stumbling little miss miss yadda yadda.

joesfj40 replied to the thread Builds Build: 75 Fj55 "Los Lobos".Plugs looked good, glad the motor turned nicely by hand. Anything that sits over 3-4 years I will always try by hand and lube the cylinders. Last thing I want is to snap a ring. Changed the oil and oil filter just plain old Castrol GTX 20w 50...

joesfj40 replied to the thread Builds Build: 75 Fj55 "Los Lobos".Get air the tires and push all 4000 pounds off the trailer into a space. Fire up the ole Harbor Freight electric pressure washer and off we go. I love this cheap pressure washer because it isn't powerful and won't tear things apart. Dive into the...
