I have an intermittent problem shifting ( 82-60 4 speed). Some times it won’t go into gear, clutch depressed as normal. No grinding or noise, just won’t go into any gear. Most of the time at a stop, sometimes while slowing and accelerating for a corner,for example. If stopped, it will make...
I’ve got a 1982 60 that I’m planning 62 gears soon and am concerned about the brakes being adequate with 35” tires. The brakes are in good shape, rebuilt this past spring, braided lines added. It has a 2” or so lift, so they should fit ok. I do go off-road occasionally, nothing crazy, not rock...
Hey, all,
I am planning a visit to the off road park at the Greenville Pickens race track on Sunday afternoon, around 2, if any are interested. I know it’s Father’s Day, but it’s a time that will work. I’ll be in my 60, my son and son in law will be in an old ranger and a Jeep. If you think you...
Doing a backyard panel swap. Found a parts truck with good ( not dented,but some rust) doors and fenders so I'm changing them out, just primer for now, though it may look better for a while.
Does anyone have a starter that works lying around that I could borrow for a test? I think mine is weak. See my thread on the main mud board "new engine, won't stay running/ won't start" . I am at my wits end. Thanks. P.s., I am near Furman/ Cherrydale. P.p.s., it's a 82 60 with 2f
i have an 82 and just put a rebuilt engine in. Started up second try. Ran for 2-3 minutes then died as if turned off with key did this maybe three times . Now very hard to crank, killed battery, new battery won't start truck. Gauge on battery reads 13 volts while dash reads 8-9. Adjusted timing...
I have an 82 with 135k on the 2f, recently the idle went low and to get home from work had to run with the choke pulled out slightly to keep from stalling. I changed the fuel pump two months ago and the fuel filter, spark plugs and distributor cap and rotor last week end. That has not helped. In...
Hey, people,
I drive an 82 60 and I am looking at a 96 lx450, 213k miles. What do I need to look out for? Doesn't look like it has been off road much. My wife will be the primary driver.
Thanks
Found an 87 2f and plan to put it in my 82 fj60. The head was rebuilt by a reputable head shop not long before the motor was pulled. Seller has an 87 fj60 from which it came, he told me it ran but smoked when pulled. I am hoping rings and bearings are the biggest part of getting it ready to...
How big a tire will fit under a 60 with stock gas tank. I'm thinking of putting the cross member and hanger back to get my tire out of the back. I am also thinking of 33" tires in the spring.
I drive a 1982 fj69 with 207k ome lift and stabilizer, tre replaced a year ago, everything seems tight in the front end but as I drive down the road it seems floaty. On a straight stretch it will track right down the road most of the time, though some times it will pull slightly left or right...
