Found a blown 20a fuse at the fuse block. Have continuity now. Charging the battery up. Hopefully I'm all set.

It's actually a 74 model year, but ya, it has some add/deletes from being all original.

The coil has an internal ballast resistor. I don't have an external resistor.

1973 FJ40 was running great, then let me down roadside. Originally I was seeing only 10v at +coil side with ignition in run, but the truck ran. I figured I had a detiorating ignition switch. Then during the break down I had 0v with key on run. Figured my ignition switch was failed completely. I...

I had same issue and my problem was that the new light assembly had the wrong bulbs in. The flasher requires certain resistance to create the flash. There's enough of that when the hazards are on and both bulbs are illuminated. Not enough when just one turn signal is activated. Replace the turn...

Thanks for the input regarding the switch!

Since last fall my 40 has been reliable and trouble free - until last weekend. While cruising about 40-mph it suddenly shut down. No sputtering at all, just died. I coasted to the side of the road turned the ignition off, then went to re-start and it fired right back up. I ran it a couple more...

Not sure. If the vehicle is title exempt, but seller has transferable registration where is the problem?

I guess it depends on what the intent is...some states don't title vehicles older than 15 years old. I bought a non titled vehicle and got it registered in my name no problem.

I appreciate the opportunity to get in line for a hacked up dash one measuring 7 1/4" by 2 1/8". Thanks!

Thanks guys. I should of specified it's a '73. Fixed passenger seat it is!

Is the passenger bucket supposed to slide? the rails look like it does, but mine doesn't have the lever to release the pin.

I'm a little embarressed to say - Velcro. I cut out the inner flange on the hubcaps and they fit nicely around the profile of the steelie wheels. So far so good, a couple hundred miles and I haven't lost one and they haven't shifted. Admittedly, I haven't done any wheeling. I went with the...

I went with the 16x7 smoothies and the tire combo you want. No issues with the 4"bs.

Are they new tail lights? What happens when the brake is pressed at the same time as a turn signal? Does anything flash?

It appears I'm looking for the unicorn Mark describes above! Looks like I'll be doing with out it.

Interesting. I think I have a rare bird with the 4-speed tunnel with the 3 speed tranny. I have to double check - I didn't think the 4 speed boot fit, and the 3 speed fits much looser than the pics you guys posted.

Title says it all. Looking for a 3-speed shift boot retainer ring. Any out there?

Title says it all anyone have an OEM PCV hose for a 12/73 FJ40?

It's been a great ride and I couldn't have done it without all the informative people in this community! I have to say thanks to all those that take the time to post such great build threads that prove to be such a resource for info. I apologize that I couldn't keep up with all my lessons...
