I just realized toyota makes a v8 diesel.

Trade secrets. For him to know.

I like everything you say but the v8 stuff. Diesel is king.

These Land cruisers could hurt the resale market of ones already here. I take with suspicion anyone saying these are all bad. Not the case. Some here are not as advertised either. You could go to Brazil on vacation and see for your self. Market getting ready to drop if these trucks come into...

The alum. plate usually covers rust. This is not a rust free fj. Most aren't because of the double plates on back of body were not chalked when made so most rusty in those spots.

Do it yourself. Whiz wheel and a $300.00 mig then Bob's your Uncle.

Steam clean.

Very easy to do steering wheel. Not a big secret. Eastwood has a kit. Just epoxy and a top coat of paint. Not rocket science.

Which one for rod cap bolts??????

Can do it that way. But safety wire for drilled heads not a castle nut. I work on airplanes and have never used on the nut end.

Torque all at 44fp but the cotter pin install method on a rotating mass, is there a preferred way.

While changing oil pan seal. No Leak just wanted to look at bottom end of Fj40 1969. I found four cotter pins missing and movement on pins on other castle nuts. Best way to install cotter pins to make the tight. Aviation on rotating part they turn them in to the side and into castle nut slots...

My mistake< Talking about parking brake transfer out put shaft bolt. 29MM

I read 110 fp. I used that. Hope I didn't over do.
