    74 fj40 Advice on p brake backing plate - sheared bolts!

    I have found that when I leave p-brake on and let clutch out it shears all 4. They are usually really easy to back out, a center punch and a little tapping or just spin em out with finger or remove housing, send to Georg & put new one on, remember to save the shims and it wouldnt hurt to check...

    1973 FJ40 New Alternator Not Charging

    To answer 1 of your questions, the alt recharges batt thru the starter cable ( big one). I assume the zip tied batt cable is the winch disconnect ?

    Anyone recognize this panel

    Since it is so clean now would be a good time to put some heat shield on the bottom of that, it will reduce heat & sound , it's self stick, has semi rigid metalic surface and is flexible so it will conform nicely to that piece. I think wngrog posted a link in the light blue 40 rebuild thread.

    Best way to install caster shims?

    Shackle bushings worn, loose will cause this. I'm guessing your shackles are straight up & down ? What deg do get when you put angle finder across upper trunion studs with truck sitting level ?
