    Throttle linkage clips around ball joint broken

    I went to a few different local shops (I didn't see your part number before I went in), and they couldn't seem to locate anything that worked. I'll try them again with the part number, thanks for sending that but what they looked up they said had been discontinued. I'll let you know how it...

    Throttle linkage clips around ball joint broken

    I was recently stranded when I turned a corner and my throttle stuck, causing the engine to rev up to 4000 rpm. I shut it down before any damage was done but once I towed it home, I found a 3" shaft 3/8" diameter connecting the two levers off the throttle linkage had a broken clip to hold in...

    Front Bumper Fog Light Install

    Is there a factory spot on the dash or did you just wire it where you wanted it?

    Front Bumper Fog Light Install

    I was looking to add a couple auxiliary lights/fog lights to my front bumper since the headlights just aren't cutting it. I'm pretty sure I'm going to stay with round lights to match the headlights, but any recommendations as to which brand, what size, and how to mount them on the front bumper...

    Fuel tank pickup unit 1979 FJ40

    Honestly I am not mechanically inclined so I was hiring it done. I don’t have the tools to get too far into repairs so I was trying to learn while I had it in the shop with a mechanic which did help me a lot but I’m not sure if they followed that or not.

    Fuel tank pickup unit 1979 FJ40

    Thanks for reading that novella, sorry to not have updated it. After a few more mechanics and 2 years of not knowing, on a hunch I ordered a 3rd fuel pump and it has ran great since then. At the end of the day, I had ordered two pumps (about a year apart) from CCOT and even though They were...

    FJ40 Roof Rack & Ladder

    I recently went through SOR and got a Wilderness Garvin roof rack along with the ladder. I am wondering if anyone knows the correct way to carry the ladder, it doesn’t appear to fit well anywhere on top; are you supposed to strap it onto your luggage after you have loaded? Seems odd since you...

    Dash cover or OEM

    I just got a call that the guy installing my roll bars dropped one and cracked my top dash pad. I have a '79 FJ40, so my question is: has anyone used a CCOT or SOR dash cover ($110-$120) and would you recommend it versus the $600 OEM? Obviously you can't go wrong with the OEM but mine is a...
