Hey guys was wanting some help figuring out this carby. I bought this land cruiser and it came with this carburettor with most the ports being in the same place but the advance vacuum port missing and the idle solenoid port missing as well. What can I do about it or do I have to purchase a new...

I live in aus and I’m wanting to do this swap but kind of want to keep it manual. I’m really excited to see this

So iv been having a go at it and im fairly confident that iv been doing everything right. I had a closer look at the end of the shaft where it slits down into the oil gear and it looks like it’s slightly bent. I believe what’s happening is it’s feeding into the slit but gets stuck halfway...

Ok I will keep fiddling with the angle for the pump gear but honestly feel like iv put it the right. I think I will look at the oil pump slit and then see how the dizzy lines up when it’s supposed to sit all the way and then align the oil slit to that angle

Hey guys I’m installing my distributor and I’m having some trouble with it not sitting completely down to the clamp. There feels like a 5mm gap is showing. Iv followed the manual for installing it by getting to TDC on compression and angle the oil gear with the rotor and distributor all...

Ya I think I’m gonna get rid of the gas to much hassle, and I thought I had a idle control solenoid, it’s this thing on the carb right

if anyone can give me any pointers, would be appreciated, 1- should i even keep it on gas or just remove it and how do i remove it, is it as simply as disconnecting everything that involves gas 2- how does it go on dual fuel for performance and fuel consumption 3- im also having issues with it...

Hey guys I needed help identifying my carby. My cruiser is on dual fuel gas/petrol and I have just recently bought another carby from another 62 but there slightly different because of this cast housing between the carb and the air intake, that has hoses running into. I mainly just wanted to...

Hey guys was wanting to know more about after markets seats based in Australia for fitting into fj62 I love the look of the Mosley motors/SOR seat upholstery but idk if it would work because it’s meant for left hand drive, I did email SOR about it and they couldn’t give me an exact answer but...

hey this looks helpful but the model descriptions are hard to distinguish a difference between each other, some are showing the same model for both

hey man would love to do that for you, im still in the process of aqcuring a fj62 so i will let you know what the go is in the future

Hey guys I was wondering if I could get some help on some Australian 60 series knowledge. I have always liked the look of a solid/ one piece window in the drivers/passengers side doors instead of the 2 piece smokers window and I have therefore been searching for one in Australia but can rarely...

Ya i can now see it’s a lot of work, I might just go for a 80 series chassis swap and restore the rest the best I can

Thanks for the reply I’m starting to realise it really is going to be a tedious task and financial going to be difficult to execute this, might just be smarter to go down the 60/80 chassis route

First time poster Is it possible to put a fj62 body onto a 80 series? I’m not just talking about swapping the chassis from the 80 to the 60, I’m talking about just the body of the fj62 and taking off the 80 body and leaving everything there such as driveshaft, engine, fuel system, brake lines...
