Interested. Would you be able to send more pictures whenever you get a chance?

Honestly not sure what to list it at. I was thinking somewhere in the 5k range but honestly no clue

Sadly life has taken me a different route and I cannot put all of the work I planned on doing to this vehicle anymore. Bought off a fellow mud member and it was my daily driver for almost 2 years and really never had a problem with it. It had an overheating issue at one point and I replaced...

What's the best route to go for fusible links nowadays? Is it to buy/have @Coolerman or someone of the likes build/repair?

So I just cleaned the posts and cables and it started right up! It seems like it's idling at lower RPM's now but everything seemed fine on the little spin I took right after so I'm content for now. Thanks so much everyone for your advice!

Thanks so much for the advice. I'll look into it tomorrow after work and hopefully that fixes it

Hey everybody, I tried looking through multiple starting problem threads but didn't see my scenario so I figured I'd ask. My cruiser has never had an issue starting or going dead or anything. Fired up perfectly fine this morning like it always does and park it. The day goes by and when I get in...

Think I just figured out my own question. For whatever reason I was thinking the TC was a manual shift but just realized that its electric. That makes a lot more sense then

Thanks for the reply. My intentions would be to only use the body off of my 62 and use everything else off the 80. Am I just being dumb about the placement of the shifters or drawing a blank? On the US 80s, LHD, the gear selector is closer to the driver and the TC is further away. On the RHD 80s...

Well the transfer case fluid has been changed and I took it for a quick drive and it definitely sounds better. I'm also going to change front and rear differential fluid while I'm at it just because I bought extra. Hopefully that clears up a little more noise as well. Below is what came out of...

Thanks! I'm in Hubert

Thanks for the response. I was thinking about the rebuild and looked into the process and watched a couple videos and it didn't look too bad. The only issue I could possibly come up with was not pulling the transmission to rebuild it and possibly the press needed. I just wasn't sure if there is...

Forgot to add that it's an automatic. Not sure if that matters

Hey everyone, been lurking on here for a long time but have finally made the first step of my end goal. About a month ago I bought a 1988 FJ62 from a member on here, Orion, and I couldn't be happier with it. I've done a few cosmetic things to it but nothing major as of yet but I am looking to...
