    Door handle wobbles

    Sorry for the late reply. The holidays kind of got away from us over here. Thanks so much for the offer, Green Bean. I actually wound up finding a machine bushing at ASE that seems to have done the trick. Thanks for everyone’s help!

    Door handle wobbles

    Spent the morning on the phone with Cannon Gaskets and later McMasterCarr (refered by Cannon). I think that rubber washer has been discontinued. I'll check out ACE Hardware again.

    73 FJ40 Rear lift up door hardware needed as well as assembly guidance

    Hello all! My wife and I just brought home our first FJ40. She's a 73. She came with boxes of parts in the back. The rear lift up door has all the latching hardware removed. I've located most of it (not all) in the boxes, but one of the pieces is broken, and I have no idea how to put it...
