Picked up an older roof rack from a Range Rover defender. It’s 57 inches wide and way too long. No problem modifying the length but wondering about using a 57 inch wide rack. Seems about 3 inches too wide. Worth the effort modifying the width or use it at 57 inches?

Sure. There are plenty of write ups about desmog on the FJ62.

Followed the 3Fe desmog instructions and all went well. The only part I did differently was taking of the entire intake manifold to access the air rail plugs versus the valve cover. Started right up and drove great home (2 miles - low speed). Took it out this morning and noticed a hesitation...

received my new radiator today for my 88 FJ62. Its a super nice item and the fit appears to be perfect with one exception. The transmission cooler ports are different than the one I'm removing. It appears the ports are M14 x 1.5 male inverted flare fittings. Is that stock?

Even with the added fluid capacity of the extra cooler and longer lines. I would expect the trans fluid quantity would be significantly more.

Just did the pan and filter clean. Just need to make sure the fluid level is correct once I get the new tank,

That’s what I was thinking. Thanks so much

Had my A440 trans rebuilt a few years ago and had an external trans cooler installed at the time bypassing the trans cooler on the radiator. Now my radiator is blown and I’m replacing with one from CCOT. my question is this. Should I run the trans cooler and the external in series to expand...

Mine is missing altogether.

Does anyone have a solution for the slide cover that works with the automatic shifter. Parts are not available but I was wondering if anyone found an option.

Ordered a DENSO 47-0432 compressor and it’s on back order because they have no cores. Anyone use something other than the DENSO with good results?

I’ve read through so many threads about AC replacement but I believe the 88 is different so I want to be sure I order the correct one

Need some help. I’ve got an 1988 that needs a new AC compressor. I’ve got a new tension pulley and belt. I will get a new drier and o-rings. I currently have the denso 047200 and can’t find the original. What’s the proper replacement? I know someone here has done an 88 before.

nice to see another Hokie on the board
