Hello everyone! I have a couple questions regarding my A/C. I drive an '87 FJ60 and live in Phoenix, AZ, which is unbearably hot. Everything "works" fine (it is 35 year old A/C at the end of the day). The air coming out of the vents is cool-ish but by the time it reaches me, it is hot with not...

Noise is in both 4H and 4L. Its an 87 FJ60. All stock expect for HFS lift, rack and bumper. I looked this morning and the front pumpkin is leaking which it has never done before.

Howdy y'all. I took my rig hunting early this morning and it performed better than I was expecting! I went wheeling afterwards, and when I put it into 4L, a harsh grinding sound came from the front end. Sounds like there is a bag of rocks in the transfer case or front pumpkin? Regardless, I was...

@Spike Strip Glad to know it wasn't just me. Struggled for about 20 minutes with it today!

Thank you all for your help. I just ordered the two valves from Cityracer! @cps432 thank you for your input!

Unfortunately it is not desmogged and I do have to pass emissions. I found two online from CruiserParts.net, however, they are not exact matching numbers nor have I ever ordered from them. Does anyone know if they are a reliable company? I will keep searching in the meantime! Thank you all for...

I have an 87 FJ60. I am redoing my cooling system and discovered an issue. Does anyone know what these are/what they do? I had my engine rebuilt where the shop broke them and instead of fixing them they just plugged them. It appears to be part of the vacuum system but I do not understand why...

I have an 87 FJ60. I am currently replacing my radiator, thermostat, fan clutch and water pump. I have been running O'Riellys green coolant for the past few years. That being said, I have had overheating issues since. I was planning on switching to a better coolant. I have read on MUD about...

The fan clutch also works properly!

Thank you all for the replies! I will not be removing the thermostat! I am going to order a 180 and external gauge, as well as flush the system. As far as radiators go, my current one has sprung a leak since my last post. Should I replace with another brass one, have the current one redone, or...

I have an '87 Fj60 with some overheating issues. I live in Phoenix, which is basically the surface of the sun during the summer months. That being said, the last few times I have taken her out, she started to overheat. The thermostat does not drop below 3/4 of the gauge wile driving, and...
