Thanks all for the useful information!! Greg: Yeah I thought of that too, I'll probably just try it for a few more days and bring it back to the workshop if it persists. Doug: I'll give SOR a shoutout, they might be kind and let me know since I just ordered a handful of parts off them just...

The interior for the 81 & 82 Non-US versions were slightly different. For example the door panel is very similiar to the FJ40 with grab handles instead of arm rest type handles. The Non-US versions also had a factory dash grab above the glovebox and the rear were fitted with jump seats. Will...

Hi folks, I had previously hunted for the elusive clean FJ40 in Saudi Arabia with not much luck, so eventually I settled for a FJ60. It's a 1982 so parts are really difficult to find as most parts out there are 1984 and newer, and parts on SOR, CCOT, Cruisercorps are for the US models which...

Any help with identifying the model anyone?

Hi folks! I am looking to buy an FJ40 here in Saudi Arabia (I am based in Riyadh but will travel out there to follow any good leads). I see loads of photos of decent FJ40s here on the forum but the ones I see for sale either at the car markets or over the internet are all in less-than-decent...
