Pighead replied to the thread 78’ FJ55 brake bleeding issues.That is the proportioning valve. It proportions how much braking force is applied front vs. rear. Residual valves keep some residual pressure in the brake lines so that your shoes (or pads) don't move too far away from the drum (or disc)... -
Pighead replied to the thread 78’ FJ55 brake bleeding issues.Nope. That's just a brake line T fitting. IIRC, residual valves are in the MC where the brake line originates. Show us a pic of your MC please?

Pighead replied to the thread Any reason for two steering stabilizers on 74 FJ40.It was cool back in the '80s. Especially with the red boot and the name facing forward. Completely useless.

Pighead replied to the thread 78’ FJ55 brake bleeding issues.Do you have a residual valve in the rear brake line? If you expand the shoes all the way out, stopping the rear wheels from turning, does the pedal still go to the floor?

Pighead replied to the thread 2F Camshaft bushing orientation question, help needed.There is only one passage, but it needs an in and out hole in the bushing. I don't know why there would be 3 holes in a bushing, but if 2 of them open into the oil passage it should work.

Pighead replied to the thread 2F Camshaft bushing orientation question, help needed.I'm pretty sure that there is only one oil passage through the camshaft.

Pighead replied to the thread FJ55 Sliders.OK, decided to do the right thing and replace the rockers. Called the metal mart, gasped when i heard the price, placed the order and dropped the other old slider. Saw some old body damage i hadn't seen in 30 years, the first dent i ever put in...

I am partial to the 2x4 tube. The only issue is you have to address the moisture that will drop from the B pillar, and if you have rust on the outside you probably have it on the back wall too. Mine was rusted where the floor supports turned 90...

Pighead replied to the thread OEM VsS Reproduction Fuel pump.Ooh! There they are. I like rebuild kits. One of those might save the OPs bacon. Back in the day, we rebuilt everything.

Pighead replied to the thread FJ55 Sliders.The dents in the rocker are pre-armor. Not all the rust is. But, darn it, they work. The bolts look Mickey Mouse, but, Pighead. What existing bolt holes in the sheetmetal are ovaled, but add flexibility. So, the quandry: do i do the right thing...
