Old thread but some more info. I bought a gobi for my Fj40 with soft top and RTT. Gobi rack swing the front Windows 1inch rear and front when break is apply with RTT. Need To install a cross-member from roll bar to front window to reduce this swing problem. I'm Thinking about installing 2 rods...

Picture will be post during the next days. I live in Quebec, Canada. About 2h from USA borders(Vermont,N-Hamphire, main).

I try to find someone that need a rebuilt B engine with rebuilt diesel pump from a 1979 BJ40 24 volts. New piston, piston sleeves, bearing, machined oil pump, I have a set of timing gear from a 3B. Rebuilt 24 volts alternator. New water pump. Power steering bracket (home made) New seal, new...

You can't jump Teeth. The wear you have will need news parts and gears or like I did : Send it to a machine shop and put a needle bearing on your idle gear. Look also at your oil pump for wear... it's easy when your cover is open. Will tell you how mutch trouble this oil trouble give you. Look...

It's a vent for the altitude compensator.

What was you pressure before the rebuild ? The first time you start your engine after a rebuild, you need to put some oil in the pump. I don't do it when I do mine and it's was like you said. It's take about 5 sec to build pressure. After that your pump don't keep is oil inside and need to...

Always need and input shaft 10 spline for F or H engine

I turn my fuel to near nothing. To have just enough to reach 100km/h and it's always the same. I remove the turbo.. and it's worst. Turbo give i'm more air to keep EGT lower. I will look if the head have something. maybe returning it to have it test for everything. Rocker, valve, steam seal are...

Juste before my 6.2 Gm swap. I want to have some clues about my B engine. I rebuild injector, diesel pump and motor. so the complet engine is like new. When I run on highway, I have high EGT temps 1100F at 100km/h 2200rpm. (often talk about it) When I put my transmission to neutral on...

I send you a PM, if you need some part for a swap, tell it to me, maybe I have some lying outside (3B Bellhousing etc..)

Yep It's because the guy who weld the diode doesn't know how to do that. Diode doesn't blow by itself. If you heat to mutch you melt it but you can test it with a Fluke( multimètre) . I did mine 4 years ago before I rebuilt the complet kit. My diode blow because of a short inside the wiring...

rectifier can be rebuild.. is it because it's to rusty to be repair ? because diode is not so hard to weld. Good rebuild shop will do that for 10$ ?

No it's not. Gasoline engine don't have the starter on the driver side like the B engine. Certainly not the same starter and flywheel. Clutch from B engine is smaller too I think. So nothing from F engine will fit on B engine. For a swap of engine, you need the bellhousing, slave cylinder...

If so, I have a H55 B fine spline input shaft spare in exchange of a coarse spline H55 input shaft. In other way, I think that this is because the B engine is smaller then 6cyl. an sit 1 1/2'' near front. The bellhounsing is 1 1/2'' longueur I think so the drive line is at the same place then...

I need and input shaft from a F or 2H engine... 10 spline coarse.I can exchange If someone need a h55 fine spline input shaft. I have many other part. like bellhousing, transmission,body mount 79 and less etc for exchange
