Nice 60! You don’t see interiors like that very often. I don’t think it’s the same Garfield from back when that garage list was posted, but I could be wrong. I think their previous owner was a big LC guy and he sold the business years ago. There’s a new classic car garage in Cedar but I don’t...
Thanks for the help and ideas. I like the idea of replacing the back half with the good frame and leaving the front... I will do some digging on what it takes to join together the front to the back and i'm sure a good automotive frame welder would be able to get it done.
Looking for guidance on frame swap. I have a 1974 (October manufacture) with four speed and 1.5 F engine. The front of the frame is in good shape but from the center back it’s pretty rough and the PO had welded a bunch of steel on the back (Maze of angle iron) and although functional it looks...
@Engineer8000 - Are you able to replace the 7v regulator in the fuel gauge? If so any idea where to get one? Or do you have to replace the entire gauge? Thanks!!
I was troubleshooting a temp sending unit (74 FJ40 1.5F) no read and low read on temp gauge (I think it's a faulty and open wire from my TSU to the plug behind the dash). While doing this I must have connected two things that shouldn't be connected (Battery was connected and ignition on) cause...
I have new in package Ironman front and rear sway bar drops for 80 series land cruiser I never ended up using. 35 New, will sell for 25 each. I have both front and both rear. Priority local but will ship.
@Planespotting, congrats on the purchase! Nice truck. Welcome to the "It's not a Jeep" cult. I also have a 74, (transition year - a bit of extra forum time in your future). You can always go down the EFI conversion rabbit hole. Or, there is a guy in Indiana on the forum that will rebuild your...
I have a 1974 1F (with spin on oil filter) I have been trying to diagnose a temp sending issue. There was a black wire connected to the middle sending unit and the yellow wire -green stripe connected to the rear temp sending unit. I don't think I have an emissions computer, so what would be the...
Sacfj60, did you order your shackles from Ironman? I just ordered the 2" kit and now I'm wondering if I need/want new shackles too. What was your thought process to get new shackles vs. the stock? I'm only using my 62 for light forest service type roads and daily driver so went with stock...
Did you guys see the 60 series on craigslist in Omena for 19K? I have pics if anyone else is interested. It's original paint but a bit out of my price range for what it is, but looks like a solid truck. I have extra pics if anyone wants them. I may be in the TC area on Oct 17 to visit family if...
If your truck has any rust I can’t recommend enough beefing up (witts end are great) or taking off the sway bar for wheeling - aggressive overlanding. The three times I have EVER been broken down in the 80 were all results of sway bars and/or muffler brackets breaking and taking brake lines with...
12,000 OBO. 1987 M998 Military HMMWV 2-man. This is the 2 door pickup truck model. These are convertible to 4 door models. I have the full bed enclosure canvas as well. This has a 6.2 GM diesel. 28k miles on odometer. Has one complete military overhaul per maintenance tag. Runs well. No issues...
