And she’s in - took two tries, putting it in as entire unit took some patience. Thanks @The Machinist ;). Seeing the truck in the sunlight made me happy. Almost as happy as the day I’m driving it.

Your front motor mount rubber cushions are mounted on an angle in slots that will let them slide up or down, perhaps the remedy would be to loosen the front cushions and let them slide/find a new comfortable home in their slots (with rear...

Shifted gears and decided to clean up the interior. Floors are in beautiful shape! No rust - just surface to keep an eye on or grind and paint.

LEDs usually run on about 3v so the light assemblies should have circuitry built in to limit the voltage that gets to the LED. The manufacturer can build the circuitry to perform in a tight or loose range. It seems most of the off road LEDs or...

Fuggit, Let’s cut straight to video Here’s an early run, before much tuning to the the timing table. This has 3.70 gears and we are probably revving up to 5K here. It is moving :grinpimp:

MOTOV8R replied to the thread New and Looking for First Purchase Advice.I have seen a few decent FJ40s on Toyota Land Cruiser Marketplace | Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/LCMarket/?ref=share but you have to sift through a lot of 80s and 100s and other cruisers.

I know this is not helpful….I have no idea what kind of person keeps a garage that clean! I have to walk sideways in mine AND THERE ARE NO CARS IN IT!

I can't find the OBD2 port in my 40. I`ll keep looking for it 😂. Maybe another 🥃 or 🥃🥃 will help me ID it.
