Hey! Thanks for the reply. I've been attempting to search but had some issues. Thanks for your help!

Hey Everyone. I am looking to get a new set of rims for my 70 series however I am finding some different information as to what will fit and what wont. Anyone have information on minimum backspacing and offset? Below are the rims and tires that I was thinking of fitting...

Ah I see! I think I am just going to convert it back to full time 4x4! I assume theres not much of a market for the ones that are on mine based on the current state of them?

Holy s*** you guys are quick!!! I assume parts for these things are going to be next to impossible to find?

Hey Yall! I've got a 1963 fj40. I've been redoing the front axle seals and have come across some missing parts on my hubs. I looked at SOR.COM and the parts diagrams dont match up... So I contacted them with pictures of my hubs and they have told me they have never seen these ones before. My...

Awesome thanks for the quick reply guys! I figured it was usual, as you said the output shaft is attached to the drum. That being said I didn't want to get it allllll the way back together and have to pull it out again if it wasn't supposed to. Thanks again guys! @reddingcruiser LOL I didnt...

Hey Guys! Just wondering. Is it usual for the transfer case to pretty well entirely drain if you remove the parking brake drum?

Hey everyone! So today I swapped my F for a 2F in my 1963 FJ40. My old setup had a solid throttle linkage howeverrrr there is no means of hooking up my linkages as the new 2F block does not have the same holes for the linkage attachment. The new motor also has a Trollhole carb. My thoughts are...

Well as it turns out I ordered the incorrect clutch alignment tool and couldn't stand to wait for the correct one to be shipped. As it turns out a Yellow highlighter with the cap ever so slightly ground down as well as the shaft wrapped with some painters tape worked ABSOLUTELY perfectly. I kid...

Hey Fellas! Update - I do actually have the 6 bolt T Case (1963+) :D :D :D! I swapped the new motor in today with the original 3 speed and 1963 t case attached however I am going to fix up one of my four speeds and swap it in with the 63+Tcase What all do i need for this? I looked through your...

Hey guys! Thanks for all of your input. I have found that I have an early 4 bolt vacuum actuated transfer case :(. I'm a little stuck on what to do now. I dont really want to remove the dashboard controls for the 4x4 and Hi/Lo and convert the tunnel to accept the mechanical setup for the new...

Hey everyone! I have a 1963 fj40 that I am planning to do a 2f & 4 speed swap into while keeping my 63 transfer case. Not sure really what I will need to do other than just straight out swap it. My understanding is I will need a new clutch master and slave cyl and a new primary gear and gasket...
