    First 10 minutes with ‘new’ ‘64….and this happened

    I understand the sentiment, but that isn’t my way. I’m letting the seller know what’s going on and hopefully we can work something out.

    Thanks. Just put 2 gallons of water in it and still not full. I’ve got to stop and get some more. I found a leak…believe it is the bottom of the radiator. Lower hose connection looks fine.

    FJ -1 Me - 0 I’m just disheartened as it was sold to me as ‘ready to go’ and ‘wouldn’t hesitate to take it anywhere’. Meanwhile I literally drove it 50 feet. Blinkers don’t work (probably easy fix), brakes feel funny (drum brakes, felt iffy going down my driveway), it won’t ’turn off’ (ignition...

    I’ll check tomorrow. It smelled like when you have water in the radiator, not coolant. Should I use green coolant?

    I literally had it parked for 10 minutes in my driveway checking the lights to see what worked, etc. Drove down to the bottom of my driveway…brakes felt suspect, but stopped…maybe that is drum brakes? Anyway, started smoking/steaming. I unhooked the battery in case it was electrical…but seems...

    Side Mirror Fitment Help

    These seem to be the ‘sets’ that everyone sells for $225-265 a pair. Do you have any pics of them from inside? How is the coverage? Do they shake at all?

    I’ve got a ‘64 FJ40 on the way in the next week or so…anyone have any parts that will work on it (rear lap belts, replacement front seats, passenger side mirror, front shoulder belts, dual master cylinder) or anything else I might ‘need’? Would love to get an extra wheel to match the 4...

    Techstream Alternative

    Military Trailer Titles in NC??

    The DMV told me that if they require you to stamp it that you can’t use a plate…like have someone make a decent looking plate. It either has to be stamped using those little metal stamps or scratched/etched in with a dremel. Only in NC!!

    Alternative to Jowett

    This will fit…it did on my 2011 LC. You will need to change the interior filter part. Lots of guidance on that on Mud. https://a.co/d/4wKYLJW I also did this….there are cheaper options, but I didn’t want to deal with a cheap part. https://a.co/d/iG7eGeO
