I am only coming back on the website after a two or so years of being out of the loop. I know there is a vast amount of knowledge and information out here on the FJ40's and am looking for some today. I know back awhile ago there were drawings of the rear brake conversion "brackets/plates" on one...

I am having an issue with my lights in my 1970 FJ40. I went to drive it the other night and I turned the lights down to parking and then when I turned them back on they all quit working. Looking through the diagrams I can't find any kind of relay on the lights. I have looked at the fuses and...

I am looking for a fan shroud for a '70 FJ40. I had a larger radiator previously in the vehicle and am trying to go back to stock on about everything and need this. I am also looking for a radiator support bracket if anyone out there has one laying around. I am in the 42223 zip code which is...

I am trying to find an older instrument cluster (i.e. speedometer) assy for a March 1970 FJ40. If anyone has one from a(1958-1972 FJ40) sitting around in their garage or a box and do not want it or is cheap please send me an email at crzrFJ40@yahoo.com and let me know. The help is appreciated.

Cooling I was relying on the Gauge inside the vehicle. I guess that is was wrong to do as well. Like I said it was working fine up until now and then this. The reason I said it was overheating was after I shut it down the radiator back flowed and the hot water came out through the overflow...

I am working on a March 1970 FJ40 that is having a cooling issue. It first started the other day with the Temp Gauge going all the way over to the left. It did not overheat the first time that this happened and then the second time I drove it, it did in fact overheat. I was at home luckly. I...

I am working on a early 1970 FJ40 and am in need of a radiator bracket for this vehicle. It is the one that holds the radiator in place in the vehicle. I currently have a homemade bracket holding the 4core in, but the radiator now has a hole in one of the tubes. I am located at Fort Campbell...

http://www.rustbullet.com/ http://www.itkillsrust.com/ If you look at the two different sites the pricing is different as well on the same product.

Your right Steve about the larger tire issue. I will only be using it for lite wheeling where I live. It is just a nice thing that I want on my Cruiser. I am willing to go through the work and time. So maybe instead of being sarcastic I can go ahead and help some of the Cruiser people out there...

Had mine rebuilt there in Houston. It was pricy though, I went through Fred Haas on N 45 just north of FM1960. Haven't had a problem with it yet (knock on wood). Not really even any leaks from the engine. I have a few other seals to replace in the tranny, but that will come with the rebuild.

I am in the process of doing just that with the conversion. Can't afford to have the lead in the rear. Just hoping someone out there might have some help and ideas for me. The 40 selection around where I am living is "three". The guy that lives two blocks over already has the V8 and Saginaw...

The main tech page on here has many Saginaw conversions but no FJ-40. I am trying to find some one that has completed the mini power steering conversion in a 1970 / FJ-40. This F engine doesn't have the holes drilled in the block. So how do I overcome this? I am trying to find out what exactly...

Ok, Now that I have learned something new for the day, Thankyou. So what are the average auto gearbox turns? This seems as if it would be easy enough to find another gearbox to complete the same function as the saginaw or what ever else. The thing I am finding is the mounting is another issue...

So what is this lock to lock?
