And they’re on. I like them!

That trailer is great! I need one.

Ordered today. Went with one of the EBay vendors…currently the best price I could find. Wrestled with my decision to go with the MT vs RT. Ultimately went with the RT mainly because more folks here have them, and reviews have been mostly good. MT looks a little better in my opinion, but my 40...

A couple of orphaned parts left over from a ‘73 FJ40 project that never happened. Working condition unknown for all. I think the cluster came out of a ‘72. Wires were cut by previous owner, and don’t see fuel or temp needles (haven’t taken it apart). Turn signals look to be in decent shape, and...

Nope. Tan 75 with “I brake for Marmots” sticker.

I dig them! Not a fan of the RT sidewall either, but figure I could live with it. Maybe I don't need to. My 75 actually lived its life in CB until January. It had been at a family vacation home there since 1980. You might have seen it around.

I'm here in Grand Junction, and preparing to buy a new set of Kendas too. Looks like you went with the MTs instead of the RTs. So interested in what you do with the spare, AND what you think of the MTs. Thanks!

And just like that….no smoke. I didn’t fix a thing, just didn’t drive it for a day. Maybe she was just tired. I will still follow the above advice and plan to adjust valves. Thanks all!!

Thanks! Never thought of that trick. I was just looking at the smoke thinking 🤔 hmm yep, looks like smoke. I’ll give that a try so that I can narrow it down.

Thanks! Gathered everything for a tune up a while back, just haven't had time to do it. I'll add valve adjustment to the list.

Thanks...I will search for a step by step. New fix for me.

Thanks....I haven't done one before, so look forward to learning something new. Hard to say what color it was...definitely not white (like coolant). Just noticed it as I was driving. It might be running a little rough now...hard to say.

Did a quick search, but thought this is worth an ask. Hoping to gather a list of things I can check. Oil level is good. No signs of coolant in it either. I've been driving my '75 regularly, and it's been running pretty darn well. Recently had exhaust replaced, so it even sounds good. Driving...

Who did you order yours from Taylor?

Just had an OME 2.5 installed on my '75 and decided I will replace my old and tired 28" Goodyear with these Kenda RTs. Found a good deal at Walmart last week.....and dang should have gone ahead. Out of stock. I snoozed...and now I loozed. Anybody have a good experience ordering them through...
